Amalfi Coast with On Foot Traveller Reviews

This was our first trip to Europe! My husband and I are quite active and like to explore the 'back-country' and culture of the various places we visit. When I came across the On Foot Holidays website (and the various tours they offer), we were very excited to add this element to our trip! We spent 3 weeks touring through Italy - starting in Venice, and spending time in the Cinque Terre and Rome. We then travelled south to Amalfi to start our week-long hiking tour along the Amalfi Coast, organized by On Foot Holidays. This was BY FAR the highlight of our trip!

The information On Foot Holidays provided to us was excellent and helped guide us along the trails from town to town. The accommodations they booked for us were fantastic. Our bags would be transported for us while we were hiking and they were always waiting for us in our room at our next accommodation. The trip overall was so well organized and planned! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend On Foot Holidays to our friends and family, and we're already planning our next hiking tour with On Foot for next year!

We explored the Amalfi Coast on foot, with our hotels and luggage transfers arranged by the tour operator. We followed the paths provided by the tour but were on our own to explore.

The operator arranged lodging and luggage transfers and provided excellent maps and directions for us to follow to walk from town to town.

This was a "gift" to myself for my 60th birthday, with the end plan being to meet my son who was based in Austria for the winter. The Amalfi Coast was a place I had always wanted to visit, and this seemed the ideal to see it up close. I had travelled on my own on short trips before and was determined that having no one to travel with was not going to stop me from a new adventure. I selected On Foot Holidays amongst the many many self guided walking companies as they seem most aligned with my expectations when travelling. It was the most wonderful experience. Though of course it was fantastic to see the Amalfi Coast, the concept of walking from town to town, hiking trails, really exploring the countryside and pushing the boundaries a little was the highlight of the trip for me. The detailed level of information provided was a surprise however once "on the ground" was grateful for it. The accommodation was perfect for my needs in all locations and it was good to know there was a contact person nearby if needed, which luckily I didn't. Where this was going to be a one off trip I am going to plan another in 12 months time. I loved travelling on my own, setting my own pace, and just doing what I wanted to do. Overall there was nothing I could fault and can't wait to do another route.

On Foot Holidays were exceptional in their customer service and attention to detail. I travelled in March when many of the normal hotels were not open, and they were tireless in finding properties that suited me and my requests. The level of detail provided was certainly above and beyond what I expected and as I found was all extremely helpful, and often necessary. I will certainly be booking with them again.

We were a group of 8 friends who met in Amalfi to hike the coastal routes planned by On Foot Holidays. This was our fourth walk with On Foot, and it did not disappoint. The walking was a bit challenging due to the many ups and downs, but the scenery was spectacular every day (as was the weather), which distracted us from the many steps we took to reach our vistas. The accommodations were all spacious, clean and quiet, and fairly central to our routes.

I am always in awe of how responsive On Foot Holidays is to our many concerns. No matter when I email them, they seem to answer within a few hours. The Walkers Packet which arrives several weeks before the journey begins has extensive route notes/maps, but additionally so much information on history, restaurants, accommodations. Included are always detailed train, bus, and ferry schedules for our transportation to, from, and during our walks. We have never had any issues on any of our walks, but I always feel that should an injury, accident or concern arise, On Foot would provide assistance in a timely manner. I feel that On Foot truly cares about the customer and his/her experience.

A week's walking holiday where accommodation was found along the route, walks were prepared for us, and our luggage was transported to each overnight stay. The walks were superb with wonderful views, suitable and well set out, the accommodation was excellent, lively resorts and the weather was so good in October that we swam in the Med most days.

We have used 'On Foot' for the last 6 or 7 years. They provide the type of holiday we enjoy. They give friendly and personal help and advice when we initially contact them about a particular holiday, at least one of the staff will have walked the routes and stayed in the accommodation they offer. They organise any extras we require, like taxis transport to and from the airport, and have local personnel in the area that we can contact if we have any problems when we are abroad. They provide a personal service and we always feel we are in safe hands!

Walking the Amalfi coast with luggage sent on ahead . Fantastic views ; spectacular scenery and a great reward for all those climbs!

On Foot Holidays. Very professional and thorough. Nothing ever too much trouble. Would definitely book with them again.

Walking on the Amalfi Coast

Very good & quick to respond

Excellent holiday with challenging walking along a beautiful mountainous coastline. May was a great time to go with lots of spring flowers and butterflies to see. Interesting towns to stay in and excellent route notes for the walking.

Good knowledge of the holidays, quick and useful responses to queries. Comprehensive information pack.

We travelled to the Amalfi Coast at the end of October 2017. We had perfect walking temperatures and sunny days. The walking is challenging due to the medieval stepped paths that rise up and up behind the Amalfi villages and then spread into quite wild, steep and rocky terrain. At the end of each day, we descended into the coastal tourist villages for dinner and a good night's sleep. Overall, a demanding and exhilarating hike.

We have travelled with OnFoot holiday three times now and find their personalised service and interest excellent. If any issue arises they have local associates who are ready to fix things. They provide excellent notes and the logistics of moving luggage and hotel bookings is always efficient. They also choose interesting hotels/farms with welcoming hosts. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their service.

Our On Foot Holiday walking tour was superb. The walks were beautiful, breathtaking actually. The maps and directions were thorough and complete. I loved how each day's direction packet showed elevation climbs and walking times, points of interest, and suggestions on where to purchase a picnic lunch at the beginning of the day or restaurants to stop at for lunch. I appreciated the alternate route to avoid a section of the walk that would bother someone with a fear of heights. The hotels were great. Several had pools which was a great way to relax after a long day of walking. The breakfasts were wonderful. I was always impressed that our luggage was always in our room at the next hotel. We added on a night in Capri and On Foot Holidays provided transportation information and maps and walking directions for several walks in Capri, which were delightful. We're looking forward to our next On Foot walking holiday in Europe. The hard part will be deciding which one to choose.

On Foot did an excellent job providing maps and directions for walking. They were accessible by email prior to our trip, always replying promptly with a helpful response. There was never a problem with our hotel reservations and our luggage was always waiting in our next hotel. I will definitely book another trip with On Foot Holidays.
