Why this trip
The route
10 days, in an order that keeps the drives short and the days unhurried.
The season
Timed for 16 Nov 2026 — chosen because it is when this route is at its most comfortable to travel in.
The company
Twelve to sixteen travellers, all over fifty, most of them booking on their own. Nobody is the odd one out.
