The Gods were with us in Amalfi

Walking through the hinterland and the coastal areas of the Amalfi Coast hss been along held dream. The scenery was as spectacular as I had imagined and the colour of the seas was the deep turquoise that we read about and see in the travel brochures and wonder if it could be true. It is!

Walking through the hinterland and the coastal areas of the Amalfi Coast hss been along held dream. The scenery was as spectacular as I had imagined and the colour of the seas was the deep turquoise that we read about and see in the travel brochures and wonder if it could be true. It is! The views, combined with steeply rising and challenging walks up on to cliff paths and down to tucked away villages created an adventure for us every day. We discovered a shepherd with his 100 sheep and goats; an isolated market gardener on the top of the walk from Positano and a man and his mules delivering potatoes on the steep steps of Praiano. The isolated areas were filled with wild flowers and we enjoyed the challenge of identifying them and of noting the hawks and falcons that combed the cliff areas above the coastal regions. The walking was of sufficient challenge but very do-able and we had a sense of achievement at the end of every completed leg of our journey.Throughout we were well supported by excellent route guides and our hotels provided us with comfortable and very agreeable accommodation each night.

Our Tour operator was attentive and the walking holiday was very well planned and supported.

Beautiful Amalfi

I hiked alone along the Amalfi coast through stunning scenery and charming, little towns. The hikes were roughly 4-5 hours per day, and sometimes quite challenging. It was a perfect active holiday, and the resting days I had inbetween came to good use.

Walking tour of the Amalfi Coast

I had read about this series of walks on a stunning coastline, and resolved to walk the "Pathway of the Gods" before getting too old! My husband wanted the scenery but not the walking, so On Foot sorted out accommodation which allowed us each to spend the day doing different things, and meet up in the evenings. We were delighted with the hotels chosen, and very happy with the service at Amalfi, Positano and Sorrento. I also spent a night ...

We were delighted with the hotels chosen, and very happy with the service at Amalfi, Positano and Sorrento. I also spent a night at an Agritourismo at St. Agata, which was a wonderful experience of staying at a working country farm, and enjoying meals from produce grown and cooked on site.

There were a few, but mainly Mary Pocock and Emma at On Foot, who coped with the demands of one walker and one non-walker, and who found ways for me to do the walking when some of the usual hotels were booked out (national holiday & long weekend). She gave me several options for starting and finishing at different points so I could still enjoy the same walks, and forwarded bus and ferry timetables so I could make a choice. This is also handy if the weather turns bad, and one suddenly has to change plans and find a bus.

Fantastic Hiking Holiday on the Italian Riviera

We, a family of 3 from California, hiked the Italian Riviera from Amalfi to Sorrento over the course of a week. It was a fantastic experience & On Foot Holidays made it a hassle-free, trouble-free adventure. Wake, up, breakfast, & go, with On Foot taking care of all the details. We hiked beautiful coastline, forest and ridge tops, passing lovely villages and trattorias & the occasional medieval ruin. After a day of hiking, we'd settle ...

We, a family of 3 from California, hiked the Italian Riviera from Amalfi to Sorrento over the course of a week. It was a fantastic experience & On Foot Holidays made it a hassle-free, trouble-free adventure. Wake, up, breakfast, & go, with On Foot taking care of all the details. We hiked beautiful coastline, forest and ridge tops, passing lovely villages and trattorias & the occasional medieval ruin. After a day of hiking, we'd settle into out hotel, clean up and make the important decision of where to eat! I managed to lose 5 lbs, even with all the pasta and wine! And nothing has ever tasted so good after a day of hiking as lemon gelato eaten while gazing at the Mediterranean.

On Foot was professional and thorough. They planned for every detail, gave us excellent resource material and kept in touch through all the planning stages. Emails were answered promptly & I felt that they were glad to tailor our vacation to our needs, changing details for me with no difficulty and always a pleasant manner.

Unique and unforgettable

We booked a walking tour of Amalfi coast Italy with On Foot holidays. The design was excellent. The routes had majestic views but also vary from day to day so there are different flavors to appreciate. The many options from easy to hard make it a breeze to adjust to any unpredictable events-- be it a foot injury or bad weather-- and still have a fantastic time. After only three or four days of the tour, it felt like we had been on vacation ...

We booked a walking tour of Amalfi coast Italy with On Foot holidays. The design was excellent. The routes had majestic views but also vary from day to day so there are different flavors to appreciate. The many options from easy to hard make it a breeze to adjust to any unpredictable events-- be it a foot injury or bad weather-- and still have a fantastic time. After only three or four days of the tour, it felt like we had been on vacation for a week already because we had experienced and seen so much more than we normally do on vacations.

Awesome hiking on the Amalfi Coast and Sorrentine Peninsula

This was one of the most interesting, challenging and exhilarating holidays we have been on. It was a hiking holiday booked with On Foot Holiday for the Amalfi Coast, Sorrentine Peninsula and Capri. We could design it to our own specifications so in two weeks spent on the Peninsula we hiked for 7 days and went sightseeing for the rest of the time. During those 7 days - we hiked 117 kilometres and climbed the equivalent of 1,342 flights of ...

This was one of the most interesting, challenging and exhilarating holidays we have been on. It was a hiking holiday booked with On Foot Holiday for the Amalfi Coast, Sorrentine Peninsula and Capri. We could design it to our own specifications so in two weeks spent on the Peninsula we hiked for 7 days and went sightseeing for the rest of the time. During those 7 days - we hiked 117 kilometres and climbed the equivalent of 1,342 flights of stairs through the most stunning landscape you could imagine - houses clinging to mountainsides, serpentine paths snaking through little almost medieval villages and stairs climbing and climbing into the clouds (We kept track do our distances with our Fitbit). That didn't include our most beautiful walk on Capri that was about 10 km all along the Western shore, ending at the Blue Grotto. Our walking notes from On Foot Holiiday were superb and kept us on track - they were so detailed and exact. If we ever felt slightly unsure we could check the GPS waypoints that we had for the trails. The accommodation booked for us was excellent. I can't say enough about how much we loved this holiday - it was awesome in the true sense of the word. Huge thanks to On Foot Holidays for doing such a superb job of planning organizing and implementing All in all this was a most excellent holiday - awesome in the truest sense of the word.

On Foot holidays is a company that operates out of the UK. We founds them by chance looking on the Internet and we liked what they offered. We were very late in booking (only a month in advance) and they were still able to do everything for us at the last minute and were always available by email or phone for questions and last minute organization. The maps and walking notes they provided for us were perfect - very detailed - it was impossible to get lost. They also provided us with bus timetables, ferry timetables as well as train timetables. And as I say we were late organizing this and they got everything to us in Canada in plenty of time - excellent daily maps, and general walking map of the area plus a carrying case to take whilst walking plus copious notes and background material. Plus the accommodation they booked for us was pretty near perfect.
