About Inntravel

Inntravel, specialist in self-guided walking and cycling holidays in Europe

Inntravel is a British company with over 40 years of experience that presents itself as a benchmark in self-guided holidays. Its offering is built around itineraries designed to explore different corners of Europe on foot, by bike, by train or by boat, with selected accommodation and telephone assistance during the trip.

The company describes its working method as a process of prior exploration: walking the routes, visiting the hotels and talking to local people before adding a destination to its catalogue. This selection translates into trips featuring characterful hotels, restaurants tried and tested by the company itself, and detailed route notes.

  • Self-guided walking: hotel-to-hotel options, centre-based with car, centre-based without car, short breaks and city add-ons.
  • Self-guided cycling: hotel-to-hotel routes, electric bike options, short breaks and city add-ons.
  • Winter holidays: winter walking, winter sun walking, winter experiences, rail journeys and weekend breaks.
  • Journeys and rail travel: self-guided itineraries by rail and boat, by car and with city add-ons.
  • Cities and short breaks: city breaks, multi-city combinations, walking and cycling weekends.
