Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of journeys do you design?

Hilltop Sheep designs private, multi-day journeys shaped around countryside and outdoor landscapes, everyday life, and a slower, more attentive way of traveling.
Each journey is custom-made and develops around rhythm, place, and human connection rather than a fixed program.


Are journeys private or shared?

Journeys are private by default, designed for couples, families, or small groups traveling together.
Occasionally, small group journeys may be proposed, but they are always limited in size and clearly indicated.


How many people can join a journey?

Most journeys are designed for 2 to 6 people.
Larger private groups may be possible depending on the itinerary and locations involved — this is always discussed on a case-by-case basis.


Are journeys suitable for children?

Yes, many journeys can be adapted for families traveling with children.
Pace, activities, and logistics are shaped accordingly, keeping the experience comfortable and engaging for everyone.


Do I need to be very fit?

No.
Journeys are designed at a human pace and adapted to the people traveling.
Walking or biking may be part of the experience, but they are never approached as performance or endurance activities.


Is everything planned in advance?

There is a thoughtful structure, but also room for flexibility.
Journeys are designed to leave space for weather, light, conversation, and the unexpected, rather than following rigid schedules.


What happens if I need to cancel?

Because each journey is custom-designed, cancellation terms vary depending on the stage of planning and services involved.
You can find full details in the Cancellation Policy.
If you have specific questions, feel free to get in touch.


How far in advance should I contact you?

Getting in touch a few months in advance is recommended, especially for travel during peak seasons.
That said, shorter notice requests are always welcome and evaluated individually.


Is Hilltop Sheep a travel agency?

Hilltop Sheep is a boutique travel studio that designs and coordinates journeys in close collaboration with local hosts, guides, and producers.
Each journey is personally curated and shaped through direct conversation.


I still have questions — what should I do?

You’re always welcome to get in touch.
A first conversation doesn’t require a clear plan — it’s often where the journey begins.
