Annie Moran

Hiking on La Gomera

Fantastic from beginning to end – we had a super time! Wild Rover offer such good value in comparison to other tour operators. The route notes were so helpful. La Gomerra is gorgeous!

Zealand Castle Route

Excellent walking holiday. We especially loved the detailed route notes provided by Niall. We had the gpx files loaded onto our Gaia app, but actually preferred using the route notes as a sort of Treasure Hunt quest. The trails were beautiful, and the side streets through quaint neighborhoods were lovely. We think what Niall has created is a superb way to travel. Walking in and out of towns gives the tourist a peek into the way locals live. We loved that we could do that without having to be in a group or with a guide. We look forward to booking additional trips with Wild Rover Travel in the future at other locations in the world.
