WAW.travel organized for me a perfect walking holiday in Menorca. Frankly, I didn't know in advance that the island was so beautiful. And the water, I've never seen it so blue. The walking path is well marked. And takes you from the most deserted beaches, to viewpoints with the most beautiful views. I was warmly welcomed everywhere, the accommodations were clean and well cared for. I would recommend this walking holiday to WAW.travel to everyone! Nicole, June 202
