On Foot Holidays was fantastic to work with. Customer-focused, provided in-depth information with lots of options for travel and walks at various levels, booked excellent accommodations and loved the app.

Quietly Brilliant – Our Ideal Walking Holiday
We’ve just returned from the Lighthouse Way in Galicia – our second trip with On Foot Holidays – and once again, it was simply outstanding. What impressed us most is how carefully and thoughtfully the walk is put together. From the route itself to the selection of places to stay, everything is curated with a quiet intelligence.

We’ve just returned from the Lighthouse Way in Galicia – our second trip with On Foot Holidays – and once again, it was simply outstanding. What impressed us most is how carefully and thoughtfully the walk is put together. From the route itself to the selection of places to stay, everything is curated with a quiet intelligence. There’s this "invisible guiding hand" that accompanies you all the way – through the app, the printed materials, and the local host, who adds depth and local context in just the right moments. It never feels over-managed, but you always feel looked after. We especially appreciated the flow of the days: the balance between effort and reward, the rhythm of walking and arriving. The accommodation was full of character, the food generous (even for a vegetarian, like Andrea), and the contact with locals felt genuine and unforced. After two On Foot trips, we’ve come to realise: this has become our favourite kind of holiday. Moving through a landscape on foot, at our own pace – but with everything thoughtfully prepared behind the scenes. It’s a rare combination of independence and care. Warm thanks to the On Foot team and to our fantastic local host Aznar, whose quiet presence and support were invaluable.

With On Foot Holidays, it always feels like you’re in touch with friends – friendly, relaxed, and at the same time highly competent. The communication is personal, clear, and often comes with a good dose of British humour. You can tell they know and love their routes, but there’s no fuss about it – just quiet confidence and a real sense of care. For us, that’s a big part of what makes these holidays so enjoyable.





What a dramatic, exciting route!
The Lighthouse Way is a walking holiday in Galicia, north-west Spain, from Laxe to Finisterra -- the 'end of the world'. We were walking in brilliant sunshine over cliffs and beautiful beaches watching a blue sea covered in white breakers. Many ships have foundered on this rocky coast, and we saw many lighthouses erected to help them. Wonderful warm hospitality, fantastic seafood to try each evening.

On Foot were totally supportive. Their on-the-ground courier, Aznar, was responsive and helpful when issues arose like our flight running late, and when we opted for a taxi when we wanted a shorter day's walking. Their app is totally amazing, making a self-guided walk a doddle.





Fabulous walking holiday in Southern Tuscany
Fabulous from start to finish (and everything in between)! Supported to put together a great 12 day holiday in Italy by the fantastic team at On Foot holidays. We spent 3 days walking in Cinque Terre (organized separately) before traveling by train to start our walking holiday in Southern Tuscany. We then spent a few days in Siena before returning home.

Fabulous from start to finish (and everything in between)! Supported to put together a great 12 day holiday in Italy by the fantastic team at On Foot holidays. We spent 3 days walking in Cinque Terre (organized separately) before traveling by train to start our walking holiday in Southern Tuscany. We then spent a few days in Siena before returning home. Stunning countryside, great walking (even in the heat wave), lovely accommodation in beautiful hilltop towns. Everything went so smoothly! We loved exploring the hill top towns in the evening after completing our walk and chilling in the local bars and restaurants; ate some great food and everyone was so welcoming. The attention to detail by On Foot holidays and local support provided by our local contact Daniele was outstanding. This was our first ‘walking holiday’; I look forward to planning and booking our next one with On Foot holidays.

Fantastic from initial enquiry, through planning and resources provided to ensure we made the most of our holiday, to follow up post trip. Great, personalized service, which meant we could tailor our holiday to meet our needs. Very professional and personal in their approach to ensuring we could tailor our holiday to meet our needs. Excellent communication from start to finish.





Does a Walking Holiday Get Any Better Than This?
We paired two walking holidays--Classic Slovenia and Slovenian Highlands--for an amazing holiday. It didn't hurt that, especially the second week of walking, we had perfect weather: sunshine in brilliant blue skies over snow-capped mountains as we walked through forest and along emerald rivers, waterfalls, and lakes. Our first walk, after a night in Ljubljana, took us from Landol by the Predjama castle as we skirted the Nanos Mountain Ridge ...
We paired two walking holidays--Classic Slovenia and Slovenian Highlands--for an amazing holiday. It didn't hurt that, especially the second week of walking, we had perfect weather: sunshine in brilliant blue skies over snow-capped mountains as we walked through forest and along emerald rivers, waterfalls, and lakes. Our first walk, after a night in Ljubljana, took us from Landol by the Predjama castle as we skirted the Nanos Mountain Ridge walking through the Karst region with its vineyards to Trieste, Italy and the coast. Our second walk, on the other side of Nanos, took us through foothills of the Julian and Karawanken Alps, near Austria, as we walked from Kranjska Gora and Lake Jasna to Mojstrana and the foot of the north face of Triglav returning to Mojstrana along the lovely Bistrica Trail. From Mojstrana we traveled along a vehicle track up to the village of Planina pod Golico. The next day, following a walk uphill through beautiful woods, we arrived at Golica, the highest point of our walk, and its amazing views of Austria and the Julian Alps. Our trip ended in Bled and its serene beauty and a visit to Vintgar Gorge and its powerful waters. Lodging was excellent with especially good breakfasts as well as some splendid evening meals. It's hard to think of anything desirable that this pair of walks lacked. And the weather, including a welcoming rainbow in Kranjska Gora, was stunning.

These were our fifth and sixth walks with On Foot Holidays. The staff of On Foot is wonderful in every respect. Their planning begins with the route and their local team and continues through the oversight and interaction with their office in Salisbury. They are quick to respond to queries and to assist in plans from travel to lodging to length of stay to advice about what you must not miss. They and their local team (in Slovenia, Miha) are eager to assist and ensure a great trip. Debbie was especially helpful for us. We've recommended On Foot to others and will continue to do so.





Amalifi Coast Hiking Adventure
We spent 9 full days hiking the Amalfi Coast. What a wonderful way to see an area. Scenic and very beautiful. This was a great way to experience the towns and countryside with and without the crowds. Mostly without while on the trail. Can't say enough about the landscape, food and the views!

We used On Foot Holidays. They were great to work with! They took care of all of the details of our accommodations and trail routes. Not only did they send us very detailed maps and directions but they also have a great route app that does not require data or a lot of phone battery. We could run it all day. The best helpful feature was if you got more than 50 m off trail it would alert you. Very handy! On Foot was very responsive to our questions and extremely helpful through the whole process from reservations, suggestions, in-country help, transfer of luggage daily, restaurant options and things to do and see. We also followed their suggestions of extra days in Positano, Sant' Agata and a few days in Capri. We were delighted that we did them all. It was really a great adventure. We are looking forward to our next trip with them.





Walking in Southern Tuscany
We were on a four day all through the vineyards and hilltop towns in Southern Tuscany. We chose a rather hot time of year to do this but found that most of the hotels we stayed at had good sized outdoor pools. which we ere much appreciated to cool off in. On Foot arranged the hotels and luggage transfers so we didn't have a lot to carry. the scenery was stunning and the hilltop towns fascinating places to explore.

We found On Foot holidays a number of years ago through an article in the Times, since then we have been on five walking holidays across Europe with them which have all been excellent, They take great care to tailor the holiday to your needs and provide detailed information on the walks, they now have an App which saves on carrying paper and ensures you stay on the walking route as well as being informed on the places you pass through. We look forward to our next walking holiday





Fantastic walking thanks to the amazing On Foot team
On Foot's Ligurian Hills walking holiday was a brilliant experience, featuring the most stunning routes, lovely places to stay and excellent artisanal food cooked by delightful hosts. The On Foot team very helpfully customised their standard route to meet our particular needs and all our hosts along the route were completely dedicated to giving us the best experience.

On Foot deliver a highly personalised service, taking great care to understand our needs and ensure the holiday will meet them, providing helpful transfer information, communicating promptly with the local hosts, and generally offering a first-class service. Their walking routes are very special, in the most beautiful countryside and with interesting and very hospitable overnight stopovers, and they never fail to give us an extremely enjoyable and memorable holiday.





Warm, carefully-guided experience in Dordogne.
This was our first time in Dordogne, and our first experience with OnFoot Holidays. We were very taken by the detailed description of the route, sometimes with tiny details noted ("The track becomes an asphalt lane. It passes a house with an arched porch, and, just as the road turns to the left at a 6t sign, find a waymarked grassy track off to the R (300m)." The carefully-chosen route allowed us to spend very little time on roads, and we had ...

OnFoot Holidays was impeccably responsive to the few questions we had (For example, we once wanted to arrange an early pick-up to miss some of the day's heat,), and our baggage was transported efficiently and promptly. What more could one want?
