Hi I'm booked to go on this trip in April and really looking forward to it however I'm starting to panic over what to pack. Does anyone have tips to share with regard to footwear. Are hiking boots necessary or just proper walking shoes? Are evenings casual or smart? Are stops included for coffee etc or is each walk done in full before a stop? I haven't been on a walking holiday abroad so any help would be appreciated. Thanks 

Hi,  I'm doing this trip in June.  Also a newbie to walking abroad and JY.  I have the same questions to yours. Perhaps you could could tell me the answers, give me some tips and if you enjoyed the experience.  Tia.
