Great organisation, planning, knowledgeable and professional.
They organised/planned everything for me. Kept me informed. Looked into and adapted all changes etc I wanted to make. Responded to my emails quickly ie either that day or next day.
As a solo female travel I felt safe using this company.
My suitcase was exactly where it should be every hotel stop. Accommodation at every stop they used was fantastic. Headwater even supplied an excellent guide book/Camino Pilgrim Stamp Booklet that was waiting for me at my first hotel.

Perfect for cross country ski ing and mountain walking
We had a brilliant week at the Park Hotel Bellevue in Dobbiaco in the Dolomites. Headwater staff were very helpful in helping us to choose where to go. The hotel staff were super friendly and the food was superb. Dobbiaco has great facilities for cross country ski ing and we also enjoyed several guided walks with crampons and snow shoes in the mountain forests. On one evening we did a night walk under the full moon around the frozen Dobbiaco Lake. Magical! The hotel gave us a free train pass allowing us to visit some of the nearby pretty towns in the valley. We had a fabulous week and highly recommend this area.

Perfect holiday in the snow
Perfect holiday in the snow. Headwater organised and communicated everything well and Venabu is amazing. Wonderful views and skiing tracks, the hotel feels like a second home, it is unassuming but very comfortable, all the staff are lovely. The food is absolutely delicious. I'd love to visit again.

Headwater poor service
We travelled with Headwater (self guided part of Exodus) to Iceland and found booking process abysmal with countless mistakes. We were charged extra for internal flights on days 2 and 6 which appeared included in the trip notes as they were an integral part of the trip. No written walking notes were included.

We love Headwater holidays!
This was our third Headwater walking holiday and yet again, we loved every thing about it. So well organised and thought out. The walks were stunning, albeit a little challenging at times, but we had plenty of time to relax in the beautiful hotels and restaurants en route. We can’t fault our Headwater trips, we’ll definitely go on more, and would highly recommend to anyone who loves a more active holiday exploring the destinations at greater depth, for a more immersive experience.

Navigation app was difficult to follow, routes were inappropriate
Navigation app was difficult to follow; we got lost and wound up hiking highly trafficked roads...hikes were inappropriate. We did not use the app after the first day, nor did we use the luggage transfer. I asked for a partial refund, and they offered $100 off the next trip I booked with them! No, thanks.

Issues at Every Turn
We have been on ten vacations with Headwater over the years, taking as many as 5 of us on several trips. So we spent a lot of money with them. Early on the trips were great. The last two have been monumental disasters. The one before last, one of our rooms flooded, and Headwaters did not respond to our calls for 24 hours. There were other problems--too many to list. So we went with other companies for a while. Then decided to give them another chance this year. Never again! This last trip had terrible directions in their so called Headwater App. Two of our three kayaking trips were canceled. Some of the hikes were closed. Again, I could go on and on. Their response was to evaluate whether we should be upset or not. They promised to refund a small portion of our money, but never again will we do a Headwater trip. There are so many good companies out there. Go with one that cares if you have a good trip or not.
We have still not gotten the promised (partial) refunds for the kayaking trips that were canceled.

Headwaters communication is efficient and patient from the outset, regardless of the number of queries you put to them. The itineraries are always interesting with realistic distances. In our experience the hotels have been well located and of a good quality and just what you need after a long day in the saddle.

An excellent trip!
From booking to experiencing our Headwater holiday everything went very smoothly. My personal sales consultant, Megan, kept me fully informed and dealt effectively with queries. The trip was very well planned, the whole trip ran like clockwork. We were based in a nice hotel located very conveniently for the activities. Our app was an excellent guide on our walks and our whole experience was excellent.
