Location overview
Welcome to Guided Walks UK, where we are dedicated to providing safe, enjoyable, and unforgettable walking experiences in some of the most stunning landscapes the UK has to offer. Founded by Paul Brady, a passionate walker and the sole director of Swinton Travel, our company is built on a foundation of expertise, safety, and a love for the great outdoors.
Paul Brady has been a keen and enthusiastic walker for over 20 years. His passion for exploring the beautiful trails and mountains of the UK has inspired him to share this love with others. In 2005, Paul established Swinton Travel, a minibus company based in Manchester, which has since grown to include a fleet of 20 minibuses ranging from 8 to 22 seats. With a commitment to providing reliable and professional transport services, Paul has built a reputation for excellence in the industry.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought about significant changes in how people engage with the outdoors. As more individuals sought solace in nature and turned to walking as a means of exercise and mental well-being, Paul recognized a growing need for safe and guided walking experiences. This realization led him to establish Guided Walks UK, a venture that combines his love for walking with his extensive experience in transport services.
