This particular departure is designed with solo travelers at its heart. It remains a self-guided trip but with others traveling at the same time, you will tend to find that you can choose the degree of sociability that suits you best on any given day. What's nice is that you have the chance to dine with others and chat through your day's walk whilst always being able to retreat to the comfort of your own room.

As with all of our self-guided trips, you have someone locally you can contact in case of need while you are traveling. But there is not a full-time tour leader, no. This is a self-guided trip using routes on our navigation app and local tips and information we provide. You may have guided visits of specific sites during this trip but these are local guides for a few hours in a particular place.

The hikes on this Menorca walking vacation range from 10km to 19km, with most around 12km. For most days you can expect to spend around four hours walking if going at quite a leisurely pace. We time the transfers to give you ample time to go at your own pace, stop for a swim, and a picnic lunch, and to enjoy the landscapes.

The Camí de Cavalls is extremely well marked. Even so, we provide simple written instructions to remove any doubts and also to signpost points of interest in the landscape around you. Finally, you also have GPS tracks you can follow, which show exactly where you need to walk. Generally though, one big advantage of this Inn to Inn is that the navigation is simple, so you can just relax and walk.

We take care of these, transporting them between hotels as part of your private transfers. You just walk with a small daypack with the essentials.

In most cases we provide a short private transfer to connect your hotels and the trailheads. Menorca is only 33 miles at its widest point, and 12 miles top to bottom. Everything is very close. Typically your transfers will be around 10-15 minutes and will always be just you and your driver.

You can usually opt out of a walk yes - your driver will simply pick you up and take you to your next destination.

Shortening the walks is dependent on there being access to pick you up - not all beaches along the north coast have roads leading to them. The longest walk is the easiest to shorten, cutting it down from 19km to 10km.

In the cities, we work with a small stable of boutique Menorca hotels, all of which are beautifully restored historic houses and mansions. Most have roof terraces or small swimming pools, which are always a welcome bonus on a hot day.

In the countryside you stay in a series of beautiful rural inns, converted from family farming estates and country manors. Expect great hosting, delicious local food, perfect swimming pools and often some very nice views.

Firstly, there are some places that you wouldn't want us fixing where you'll eat - part of the fun of being in places like Mahón and Ciutadella is choosing from their many great restaurants. That covers off most dinners. On your last full day you have a couple of excellent recommendations for dinner, or you could choose to eat in your hotel again.

For your first walk, it's easiest (and tastiest) to pick up a picnic lunch in Mahón on your arrival day. You'll have a recommendation in your Vacation Guide. On your last walking day, we recommend a late lunch in Ciutadella.

Yes, the slow pace of an Inn to Inn vacation means you will have ample opportunity to strike up conversations should you wish. Above all, your guide, drivers and hosts are all locals, and will by and large speak very good English. They are collectively a wonderful source of local knowledge, so feel free to ask all your questions!
