An exhilarating 6 day Christmas walking holiday in Andalucia

We flew on the 23rd December leaving storm strewn Gatwick, arriving in Malaga in warm bright sunshine. Our friendly taxi driver was waiting to take us to Zahara, our first white village, where we would start our walking holiday. Over the week we stayed in 3 villages, ending up for 2 luxurious nights in the fabulous Parador at Ronda. We had detailed instructions of the walks each day, which took us through the most beautiful and varied countryside...

We flew on the 23rd December leaving storm strewn Gatwick, arriving in Malaga in warm bright sunshine. Our friendly taxi driver was waiting to take us to Zahara, our first white village, where we would start our walking holiday. Over the week we stayed in 3 villages, ending up for 2 luxurious nights in the fabulous Parador at Ronda. We had detailed instructions of the walks each day, which took us through the most beautiful and varied countryside. While we were walking our bag was ferried to our next hotel, but on the 2 days of storms we were able to travel by taxi with our bag. The hotels were warm, cosy and clean, with lots of hot water, and the people were very friendly and hospitable. We had some delicious meals, especially at Grazalema, where we would love to visit again. On Foot were exceptionally helpful with advice, and even called us during our walk on Boxing day!! The walks of 12 kms were manageable, but the longest walk of 16kms was a bit too much for us townies, and we did get lost one day! Overall we had the most memorable holiday, and would definitely recommend an adventure like this.

On Foot Holidays were exceptionally helpful from the very first phone call I made to enquire about the possibility of a walking holiday in Andalucia over Christmas. They gave us excellent advice about the equipment we would need to enable us to walk comfortably, and we came home with all 20 toes intact and no blisters as a result! They organised everything we needed for a worry free holiday, with detailed information about travel, the walks, our contact in Andalucia, our hotels, even the bus times from Ronda to Malaga on our return journey. I highly recommend On Foot Holidays, we felt very well taken care of.

Superbly organised walking holiday

Self-guided walking holiday with baggage transfer between destinations in the Andalucian Sierras. We asked On-Foot to organise everything for us from the moment we got off the aeroplane - and they did! They made several suggestions to help us before the holiday and were at the end of a phone when we managed to get ourselves lost one day! Accommodation and walks were varied but all of an excellent standard. We felt we had a rounded experience ...

On-Foot give a personal service from the moment you contact them. We feel we know the staff personally and they know the details of the holidays we book and the information that is useful to us as travellers. They are willing to organise as little or as much as we ask them to. They even phone us up the week before we go to wish us a happy holiday and to ensure we have everything we need!

Fabulous

I did the Andalusia walk. All the bookings, luggage transfer, walking notes etc were flawless. I particularly liked the route devised because it was well off the beaten track into quite remote areas where there is no-one else to be seen. The scenery was unusual and interesting.

Awesome Ambling in Andalucia

It was a wonderful experience. The towns we stayed in were interesting and varied with the people trying to be helpful despite the fact that our Spanish was woeful. The notes for the walk were clear and if we had succeeded in getting lost I think it would have been our fault!!!!

The tour operator was great. Any queries were answered immediately and usually in a cheerful tone -if that is possible via the internet.If the information was not readily available at least they would reply and tell you that they would answer the query as soon as posssible.
