Bohemian Paradise by poacher, 30 Sep 2015
Holiday Rating:

Just the level of adventure me and my wife want at our age's, literarily getting into the nooks and crevasse's of the area of the country that we visited.

Self guided walking tour across Bohemia of about 80 kilometre over 5 days.

The fact that me and my wife over the year's are on first name terms with people that we have never met and that they recognize our voices with a cheery hello makes us feel secure in what we are looking for will be action down to the smallest detail.

Z - Sabine Hills by Badger Richards, 29 Sep 2015
Holiday Rating:

Most enjoyable way to explore and savour the Sabine mountains

We were looked after extremely well from booking to return. The self guiding was fun and easy to follow with just enough challenge. The routes, accommodation, food and everyone involved we met were a delight.

Amalfi Coast with On Foot by Leslie and Alan C., 24 Sep 2015

La Dolce Vita on the Amalfi Coast

We enjoyed a fabulous 7-day self-guided walking tour of the Amalfi Coast in Italy. Following maps and route notes - like a treasure hunt - our tour took us on ancient paths, up and down hidden stairways, on back roads, and through lemon and olive groves to quiet villages and bustling towns, with long stretches of drop-dead gorgeous coastal views along the way. We loved every step of our journey.

The crew at On Foot Holidays were fantastic to work with. From our first inquiry, though the planning and booking process, and the trip itself, they were incredibly responsive. They answered our questions promptly and thoroughly; booked our charming accommodations; arranged for transport of our luggage between hotels; and provided detailed trip notes, maps, and bus and ferry schedules geared specifically to our itinerary. We recommend them whole-heartedly.

Marvellously fascinating and great fun

Walking through forests, open countryside and quite often in solitude. This experience was just what we needed. Time to look. Time to experience. Time to listen to eachother. Time to stand and see nature. We loved the countryside. .so beautiful. Following the excellent maps and instructions we were orienteering. ..great fun. Czech people were absolutely delightful. The food delicious. The beer slid down our throats. We saw wildlife up close ...

Walking through forests, open countryside and quite often in solitude. This experience was just what we needed. Time to look. Time to experience. Time to listen to eachother. Time to stand and see nature. We loved the countryside. .so beautiful. Following the excellent maps and instructions we were orienteering. ..great fun. Czech people were absolutely delightful. The food delicious. The beer slid down our throats. We saw wildlife up close ....deer, wild sheep; kingfishers and more. Each village or town brought history and culture with tasty food and more excellent Czech beer. We were tired on some days but delighted with what we had seen and experienced. On foot holidays prepared us well. They advised us. They are knowledgeable. Holiday packs were spot on. We had a fabulous time. I cried on the last day....why oh why does this experience have to end? We will walk again.

The extra touch of an email wishing us z good holiday was a great touch. All promised happened and without a hiccup. ..something unique there. We liked their attitude and their attention to us as s customer. 5*

Walk across the Appenines from Mornico Losana to Camogli

Stunning part of Italy for walking. walk is 80 miles with a lot of climbing but worth every step! Accommodation is small hotels and bead and breakfast villa's but you eat with you hosts. Food and wine are first class as is the service. From the small town of Varzi the climbing really starts and you reach a height of almast 1600M. Views are stunning! The views as you approach the coast after 6 days are breathtaking! This part of Italy is off ...

The views as you approach the coast after 6 days are breathtaking! This part of Italy is off the main tourist route so you get a real feel for the area and its people. In summary, the walk of a lifetime!

On Foot holidays based in Salisbury. They do self guided walks all over Europe. All maps, guide notes and in most cases GPX files are provided. Baggage is carried for you from hotel to hotel so all you need is a day pack. This is the 3rd holiday I have been on with On foot and all have been excellent.

Wonderful week walking off the beaten track in Northern Portugal

On Foot Holidays are very professional. They take great care to ensure you have a positive experience, and pay great attention to detail. The route descriptions are accurate without being too fussy, and the accompanying notes give interesting information about the area.

Z - Lycian Coast by Footsore, 11 Sep 2015
Holiday Rating:

Scenery, hospitality, well-being

Eight days along the Lycian coast, on the 'medium-hard' route. Beautiful! A variety of lodgings and meals along the way - all good. On the limit for heat-plus-exertion, so we alternated days: challenging trek then well-earned flop.

Our second time with On Foot. They were attentive and creative in the runup, 'tailoring' the intinerary to our needs and tastes. The support material - maps and marching instructions - was first class. The varied overnights - hotels and bungalows - were great, and the hosts well tuned-in to the On Foot ethos. On our return, On Foot absorbed our little 'improvement' suggestions very well; efficient, truly enthusiastic about the experience they sell, personally very friendly.

We have taken 12 holidays with On Foot Holidays,so we obviously like what they offer. It is a small company,so you get a very personal service and the staff have walked the routes themselves so can advise you from their own experience.I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
