England is bursting with regional character, and the best way to uncover it is by doing a Slower Adventure with Macs Adventure. These tours allow you to turn the pace down a notch and take in the culture, try the food and live the local way of life. As the walks are typically shorter, it allows you to stop off along the way for an impromptu afternoon tipple in the pub, treat yourself to an indulgent cream tea or visit a stately home, castle, or museum you might have otherwise passed.
Our flagship Slow Adventure, The Cotswolds in Comfort, is the perfect introduction to Slow travel in England, with gentle walks through rolling countryside and picture-perfect, honey-coloured villages that define this quintessentially English landscape. In the north, The Heart of the Lake District offers a truly Slow experience in one of England’s most iconic regions, exploring UNESCO-listed valleys and tranquil lakes in the footsteps of Wordsworth, Wainwright and Beatrix Potter, with time to savour Grasmere gingerbread, sample local ales and enjoy the warm hospitality of traditional Cumbrian inns. For coastal explorers, Highlights of Cornwall in Comfort delivers Slow travel at its most scenic, inviting you to stroll along dramatic cliff-top paths past golden beaches and hidden coves, before spending relaxed afternoons discovering charming fishing villages in this celebrated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
