On Foot - Classic Slovenia by Frank, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Very enjoyable self-guided walking holiday in Slovenia and Italy

We made a foursome with our friends for a week's walking in the Karst country in May this year, self-guided and with luggage transported ahead, staying in hotels and farmhouses which provide a significant amount of home-grown food - wonderful!

Once again On Foot Holidays provided us with excellent advice about the demands of the walks before we booked. They sent us accurate maps and walk descriptions as well as a gpx file for my GPS so we didn't get lost!

On Foot Holidays - Tuscany by PeterB, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Marvellous walking in beautiful countryside

This was a superbly-organised introduction for us to the delights of the Tuscany landscape - like walking through a painting or a postcard. The overnight stays we had were varied and all of a high standard. Everywhere was exceptionally welcoming and the standard of food and drink was brilliant - and surprisingly reasonably priced.

It says it all that from leaving Sienna to returning home we had no need to contact them at all. There were no problems with accommodation and all the transfers went seamlessly. We were very impressed with the walking route directions - we never went wrong once in six days - and all the other information including the detailed bus and train timetables we needed.

Slovenia: The Karst-culture and landscape

My wife and I did a self-guided walking trip from outside Ljubljana to Trieste, Italy over 12 days. The itinerary allowed us to experience Slovenia just as we desired by being able to get close to the people. I feel that Onfoot's relationship with the places we stayed enhanced our time as everyone spoke very highly of the company. All arrangements were fantastic.

On Foot Holidays - El Priorat by BNB, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Excellent walking tour organisation

I have now done 7 walking holidays with On Foot. Their attention to detail is superb. We always stay in clean and comfortable place. We always eat well. Where there may have been minor disappointments the staff respond immediately and take into account all comments and are unfailingly pleasant to deal with. I heartily recommend the company - I have done so on many occasions and will continue to do so.

On Foot Holidays - Amalfi Coast by Rob, 5 Nov 2013

Walking the Amalfi Coast

Our first "walking" holiday anywhere in all our world wide travels. The choice of the Amalfi coast was perfect. Historic villages..breathtaking scenery..great seafood..friendly people..and practically nobody on the paths. And no rain to muddy up the trails.

Awesome. They responded the same day to questions. Once even calling from London to Seattle at their expense to answer questions. The staff had actually hiked the route and knew what we were to expect. The printed daily directions were very detailed and accurate. We were sent a survey to give feedback. Then I received a thank you on that feedback..with the commitment to change some of the wording for their 2014 directions. My suggestions were going to be incorporated. We could upgrade hotels with no problem. There were even restaurant suggestions. They have an in -country contact for emergencies. All airport pick ups, luggage transfers, hotel reservations , train transfers, etc. had no problems. Not one. My wife and I have used many travel companies. On the whole we have been satisfied. Our vote of confidence is by using the agency a second time. We are already considering another "walking" tour with On Foot Holidays, time and our health permitting.

On Foot Holidays - Tuscany by willow, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Interesting, well planned, lovely walks, varied hotels

We travelled in June to Tuscany and had six days walking around Montalcino. It is a wonderful and beautiful area and the walks were exactly as described. The hotels were varied, which was lovely, and interesting; we decided to have one day not walking which was fine, and everything went really smoothly. I would love to holiday with them again.

Enjoyable, safe and fun

We did the walk on the Amalfi Coast. We enjoyed the hotels selected and were thankful for the suggestions made for being prepared for the walks. We were a bit disappointed that rain prevented us from doing part of the walks. The walks we did were great and felt the directions and maps were detailed and complete. Overall we were impressed with the organization and thoroughness of On Foot. Staff was very responsive to questions and helpful...

We met other groups on this trip that had booked with other programs and they were impressed with out detailed maps and walking directions. Not only would we recommend On Foot but we are looking at other walks we could do with On Foot

Rating for tour operator:

This company specialises in self-guided walking breaks in Europe. Initial ideas and holiday information is available on their web-site, or via a brochure, and they are very friendly and helpful when you ring to discuss a possible booking. They have a flexible approach, and will work with you to tailor an itinerary to suit you, based on one of the standard itineraries. For example, they can optionally book flights and taxi transfers, and in most cases you can choose to start on any day of the week, and to add extra days at the beginning or end, or indeed in the middle of your trip if you wish. Where your walk takes you to places large enough to offer a number of accommodation options, you can choose one to suit.
