We had a great holiday but did not stick to the itinerary
Great experience organising our trip but the reps were not very interested in us - they met us on arrival but did not seem to be worried that we were unable to buy pack lunches from hotels and that...

We are so pleased you found booking your holiday with us an enjoyable experience. Many thanks for your feedback and our apologies for any inconvenience you encountered regards packed lunches. Whilst we don't include these on this tour as standard we do endeavor to ensure that there are options for places to buy these at the beginning of the day or early en route as we know how important it is to keep fueled during a walk. To the best of our knowledge on this tour there are bakeries at every starting point. This has been double checked by our resort staff and we will ensure that should future customers want this option the location of the bakeries is made clearer. As discussed with Ian, our representative in resort the Hotel Roseraie can offer a packed lunch service.
We take a great deal of pride in our exclusive resort representation service and Headwater reps are chosen for their enjoyment of both walking and cycling as well as their knowledge and love of the country they work in, James and Ian in the Loire are no exception. We understand you met them both when you were on your holiday and they were surprised by your feedback after the various conversations and transfers you had with them in resort and apologise unreservedly if it came across that they were less interested in walking than cycling.
We do hope the issues you encountered on your holiday with us did not spoil your enjoyment of the Loire. Our service to our customers both in the UK and in resort is of paramount importance to us and your feedback will be acted upon and used to improve areas where we may have fallen short.
With best wishes The Headwater Team

I have cycled with Headwater about 10 times. This was not one of their best trips - too many tunnels, unexpected hazards like potholes in the road and some parts where the only option was to carry...

The car to take us to the airport at the end of our holiday was too small for 4 people and our luggage. 3 people had to sit squashed on the back seat.

the trip will evolve into a very good one
Teething issues- paths having to be retraced because the guide hadn't checked them in advance. Timeing issues didn't manage to do all the things shown on the itinerary.
The first walking day was not...

Many thanks for your comments, we're delighted to see that you enjoyed our new guided tour in Romania but sorry that the itinerary fell short on the first day. This tour has been in development for over 12 months and at the time you travelled was very new. We constantly assess our tours using feedback and customer advice to review and improve them. We have since changed the first day of the tour and looked at other aspects to improve the week overall with our on the ground suppliers and apologise for any inconvenience to you. Local issues outside our control did affect timing on some occasions and these have also been looked at and will be avoided in the future. Thank you again for taking the time to add your comments, they have been acted on.

Great guide, itinerary and food. Thought the second hotel was rather pretentious but both were good, although the second one had no air conditioning and was not concerned by our discomfort. Wish I...
