What a trip- thanks to The RESPY team! It was quite an adventure, some tough trekking in wild weather however thanks to the team we always had somewhere to rest and refresh - we even had our own recital at La Ferme de Florence which was a real treat! Absolutely recommend!

We took a self guided journey for part 6 of the GR10. It was fabulous. The trek was beautiful and all the logistics were absolutely smooth. We also loved the app and appreciated the responsiveness when we wanted to make adjustments for day 5. So, the trip exceeded our expectations by a lot! Beyond this, all interactions throughout with Gaetan, before and during the journey were very efficient and pleasant. It was fun to meet him in person. We are already thinking about our next trip with Respyrenees! Micki Eisenman

Following a cycling trip across the Pyrenees, I found Respyrenees while doing research on hiking the GR10. I booked their recommended itinerary for Section 1. Any concerns I had about support and luggage transfer were put to rest with a simple phone call. The support material is excellent, from the hard copy description to the 1:25,000 maps. The phone app was excellent for navigation and my luggage was always waiting for me at that night's accommodations. The planning, booking, and support that Respyrenees provided really lessened the stress of planning a multi country month long foray that included biking, hiking and touring. I would highly recommend Respyrenees to anyone contemplating hiking the GR10 but may find the planning overwhelming...they will do it for you! I'm coming back for more GR10 and this is the company I will use.

We had a fantastic tour, and was very satisfied with everything. All the hotels and refuges were really great and everything was well organized.

This was one of the best experiences of my trip to France!!! Mathiu was fabulous! We had 3 amazing days of hiking and he was exceptionally knowledgeable and so patient with answering our many questions! Our hike to see the buzzards' nesting cliffs was an experience none of us will forget! The food was incredible and we enjoyed meeting the other guests and hearing about their adventures. I live in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State in the US and do a lot of hiking here on my own and with a summer camp for children. The level of professionalism and outdoor skills was impressive. I felt completely comfortable and safe with Mathiu as our guide. I highly recommend Respyrenees! Alison

I had a great experience walking from Hendaye to Etsaut in 2023, with excellent help and support from ResPyrenees and Gaëtan. I returned this summer to continue from Etsaut to Gavarnie, and again ResPyrenees' service was outstanding. We stayed in three different refuges, plus gites and hotels, and all were great. At each stop, we found the hosts and staff to be conscientious and helpful. The selection of these accommodations demonstrates ResPyrenees' accumulated knowledge of GR10. There's just no way that I could have made the selections and reservations on my own, without ResPyrenees. Gaëtan has always been helpful and responsive. I look forward to returning next summer to continue the adventure.

Thank you to Respyrenees for a wonderful week in the snow. Great service, a super guide and everything so well organised. I was very impressed and already planning my next holiday with Respyrenees.

Everything during our week in the Ariege worked out perfectly! We knew we could not walk this section of the GR10 under our own steam because there is a notorious lack of accommodation and resupply points. Gaëtan's organisation was flawless. Our luggage transfers worked perfectly, the timing and distances given for the walks were spot on, and the accommodations were the best on offer along this challenging section of the walk. In fact one or two of the places we stayed (and ate!) were among our best experiences in France. Although we are experienced navigators we really enjoyed having the Respyrénées app to help us with navigation in some tricky spots - it was particularly helpful in finding our accommodations at the end of some long days. And what a nice surprise to meet Gaëtan himself when he came from Fois to pick us up for one of our transfers. Thank you so much for a holiday that was challenging in all the right ways, and none of the wrong ones!

We walked the first week of this 2-week trail at the end of April. A couple of rainy days, but the bonus of this early holiday were the truly wonderful wildflowers we encountered all along the route. Fields full of orchids! Every day was accompanied by nightingale song, in this truly unspoilt area of France. Respyrenees' annotated route map and instructions kept us safely on course, and our accomodation was a mix of small hotels and B&Bs. Everywhere we were made very welcome. This is a less well known area of France, with a fascinating history - worth investigating. Best memory were the views South to the snowy line of the Pyrenees, which we walked (again with Respyrenees) in 2015/16.

A super week of hiking. I carried all I needed. Very happy with all the preparations and information beforehand. A welcome pack including marked up maps was a super surprise! There were details of where to buy supplies and the opening times. Points of interest etc. The GPS app worked well and gave confidence in times of doubt. Very grateful to Gaëtan for all the help. I would certainly recommend Respyrenees. I felt secure on my first solo hiking adventure!

Thanks to Respyrenees for organising the 43 stages of this wonderful adventure. The service provided was professional and helpful and their local knowledge and profile with accommodation providers ensured the smoothest possible progress.

"We worked with Respyrénées to walk the GR10 over 3 years. Hendaye to Etsaut in 2018, Etsaut to Luchon in 2019 and Luchon to Bagnuls-sur-mer in 2020. Yes we did the final month of the GR10 with all the problems of Covid-19 !!!!.. Each year we worked mainly with Gaëtan to build a schedule to meet our capabilities and preferences. We also worked well with Lucie on issues along the way. Each time we ended up with a schedule that met our needs with limited but key changes from the standard programmes. Respyrénées listened carefully to our thoughts and suggested alterations where necessary. They were good at making strong cases for alternatives using their experience. After agreeing the schedule it was always well implemented. When you arrange to meet a taxi at a remote road-head without mobile coverage you want to be sure that it arrives! We always felt we came out with a good outcome combining our thoughts based on guidebooks with the reality of local knowledge based on experience. This final year was particularly challenging with the Covid-19 situations in France and the UK impacting on the travel and walking arrangements. Overall we really enjoyed working with the Respyrénées team and had a fantastic experience. We are very sad to come to the end of the GR10 - we enjoyed the journey so much!"
