    Straight from the Source

    Have you ever wondered what it’s like to join one of our small group tours? What your day by day could look like when as you discover some of the most beautiful places of the UK and Ireland?

    Why not hear it straight from someone as they are travelling on their trip? It doesn’t get more real than that. 

    Craving a unique bonding experience, lifestyle podcast duo Gretchen Rubin and her sister Elizabeth decided to join Wilderness England’s Northumberland and the Lake District walking trip. Known for their popular Happier with Gretchen Rubin podcast, which explores practical tips for happiness and building good life habits, the sisters sought a meaningful adventure to deepen their connection. Day by day, they share their discoveries with listeners on the podcast.

    Join them as they fall in love with hiking in Northern England, walking side by side with Gretchen and Liz as they discover everything from sheep-dotted pastures to crumbling English castles and the unexpected joy of kissing gates. Listen to their other episodes to discover more about England, travel hacks, and happiness across further episodes.
