On Foot Holidays Traveller Reviews

On Foot have developed another great walk in the Marina Alta hills behind the Costa Blanca. As always the booking & admin was straightforward and the new App which includes the maps and walking instructions as well as details on the places visited and hotels is both easy to use, well designed and very comprehensive and of course this saves a lot of paper. The walk was a good challenge and once again On Foot have found some fabulous small hotels and restaurants.

We have used two other companies for walking holidays in the past but in recent years have walked five or six times with On Foot and would not now travel with anyone else. They have developed walks with a sense of purpose and challenge and always seem to have found the best small hotels and some great food. The App - walk notes always work and there is always useful local support a phone call away.

I went for a week to La Gomera hiking with my 20 year old son. We had a lovely time.

They were well organised, attentive and excellent at problem solving. I felt safe and cared for from the moment I booked the holiday until the moment I landed back home.

We wanted a challenging hiking break with a couple of days relaxing at the end, which is exactly what we got.

Very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. Local contact was excellent.

Good combination of a walking on day and a stay local day in each of the village bases. Fantastic sense of achievement, with some big climbs and walking up to, and over the top of, the island. Really interesting scenery, and walking routes.

Very well organised, with thorough notes and guidance. A much more personal feel than some of the bigger walking holiday companies. The On Foot holidays app, with linked GPX files was a great help, as was having a local contact to sort out any queries.

We had a perfect, week-long walk down the Rhine valley which included great views, great small hotels, great wine, and great food. While we expected the area to be frequented by tourists, we found the majority of the time we were on our own to enjoy the views and towns. Sure, Koblenz has some cruise boats, but our experience felt as authentic as any holiday we have taken, the reputation as an attraction for visitors notwithstanding.

The tour was well organized with every logistical detail without a hitch and every recommendation right-on. We take an On-Foot walk annually and have found them to be among the best holiday's we have had.

Walking on the island of Naxos was wonderful. There was such a variety of terrain and we hardly saw other travelers on many of the walks. Our hotel was spectacular as well. We hope to return!

On Foot’s arrangements were great. This was our second walk with them and we expect to do more. We recommend the company to friends all the time.

Excellent holiday - well organised, good accommodation, lovely walking.

On Foot Holidays organised a really wonderful break in the Canary Islands - 3 days of walking in the volcanic landscape of La Gomera. All accommodation booked & organised. Route directions & GPS tracks provided, and a local guide contactable by WhatsApp.

This was a fantastic and varied walk, beginning in the mountains, then opening out as we neared the coast, veering into France for a bit, before finally arriving in San Sebastian. The itinerary even included a couple of short boat rides, which were fun. Our accommodations along the way were fantastic and always a welcome rest at the end of each day. We had some gorgeous views along the way, which kept us going, especially after some of the steeper climbs. And we really enjoyed the opportunity to take a bit of a detour to "bag a French peak" along the way. Our local guide, though we never actually met him, had great recommendations for fun places to eat and other helpful advice. The route notes provided by On Foot, along with the electronic route data they provided for the Pocket Earth app, made navigating easy and worry free. It was a wonderful eight days in the hills and along the coast!

We felt the whole trip was extremely well organized and everything went very smoothly. The help, guidance and advice we received from the On Foot team in planning our trip was excellent, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We did two hikes back-to-back, and their coordination and advice about our travel details between and at the end of each hike (including details about connecting trains and buses) was very useful and beyond what we expected for the sections of our trip which they weren’t planning. The local guide contacts were also super helpful, responsive and a pleasure to work with.

We had a fabulous trip, walking through very quiet and unspoiled countryside with a welcoming and cozy hotel waiting for us at the end of each day. The food and wine was wonderful and the hosts were always eager to talk to us about their local specialties. We had a few rainy days, but mostly the weather was fine and perfect for walking. All of the accommodations were great—and some were truly exceptional! The route notes provided were brilliantly detailed and accurate. Along with the electronic route data they provided for the Pocket Earth app, we had no route-finding difficulties at all. We definitely recommend On Foot and are already looking into a future trip with them.

This was our 8th self-guided walking trip with On Foot Holidays. We flew to Tenerife then caught a ferry to La Gomera, our base for the week. The walking was superb, following carefully planned routes through stunning, unspoilt mountainous scenery around the island. The accommodation en route was excellent, and the hosts very welcoming.

On Foot Holidays provided excellent route maps and detailed notes, so getting lost was not a problem. A local route adviser was always available by phone to give assistance, provide weather forecasts or to book restaurants. Overall, On Foot Holidays provide excellent customer service, from original booking right through to returning home.
