Northern Portugal with On Foot by VinhoWalker, 16 Sep 2015
Holiday Rating:

Wonderful week walking off the beaten track in Northern Portugal

Remote walking between sleepy villages in Northern Portugal - wild horses, wild swimming, good wine and characterful local accommodation.

We have travelled with On Foot several times now, and they are always a pleasure to deal with. Their service is excellent, comprehensive and personal. Heartily recommended.

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.

Ligurian Hills by Rachel and Jeremy, 10 Sep 2015

Absolutely first-class from start to finish

We've been on self-guided walking holidays with several operators over the last decade but the experience of On Foot Holiday's trips is streets ahead of the others we've gone with.

We've been on self-guided walking holidays with several operators over the last decade but the experience of On Foot Holiday's trips is streets ahead of the others we've gone with. There was a supremely well-judged range and level of support before and during the trip. The walking routes itself well-designed and structured - taking place in a part of Italy (the Oltrepo Pavese into the Ligurian Hills) that is considered off-the beaten track, the notes you receive and the guidance ensure that you can't stray off the track they have chosen. Best of all is the accomodation. Some of it was more simple than others, thoroughly understandable given the relative remoteness of some of the stops, but it was unified by great local food and hosts who all had a clear and demonstrable passion for the area they live in. By the end of the route, it was a passion that we shared.

Rating for tour operator:

Second self-guided walking holiday with On Foot. Usually, we select an area we want to discover and then try to find a company that offers a walk there. On Foot are so good that we will now see where they offers walks and then choose from those - they are that good. Superb range of information and support to ensure that you choose the right walk, are informed about where you are going and what you will need. A clear of loving which shines through and personal experience of the walks. First class.

MAJESTIC VIEWS, QUAINT VILLAGES AND GREAT HOSPITALITY

We have been hiking for 15 years plus and always with an organised tour company with guides. This self guided experience was one of the highlights of our adventures to date and feel very confident in recommending this choice to anyone. The Alps to the Mediterranean was exciting, full of wonderful landscapes, food, history and importantly the hospitality afforded to us, very good hosts especially in La Brigue.

We have been hiking for 15 years plus and always with an organised tour company with guides. This self guided experience was one of the highlights of our adventures to date and feel very confident in recommending this choice to anyone. The Alps to the Mediterranean was exciting, full of wonderful landscapes, food, history and importantly the hospitality afforded to us, very good hosts especially in La Brigue. The guide book, maps and the GPS made the trip easy and gave us confidence to try other options in the future. All the Staff at On Foot Holidays were absolutely great to deal with, prompt replies, efficient and friendly. Overall excellent.

Lycia: Mountain and Sea by JandJ, 25 Aug 2015
Holiday Rating:

A nice blend of nature and culture

This was no stroll in the park. The walking was quite tough, especially as it got rather hot, although it was only the first half of May. But the views were spectacular, the food delicious and the people very friendly and hospitable. The type of accommodation varied - from a luxurious hotel to a log cabin - but each overnight stop had its own charm.

This was our third walk with On Foot Holidays and we intend to come back for more! Their people were unfailingly friendly and helpful and everything was efficiently organised: taxi transfers and luggage transport were faultless, background information and tips on restaurants, for example, were useful and the route description was (for the most part) accurate.

Catalonia: El Priorat by Yvonne Milne, 14 Aug 2015
Holiday Rating:

Walking in the Priorat region of Spain

On Foot have created a beautiful walking holiday in the Priorat region of Spain, where you stay in a range of fabulous accommodation and sample some of the fantastic local cuisine. The routes are varied and interesting and, combined with the places you stay, really let you get a feel for this under explored region.

This is our fourth trip with On Foot and won't be our last. From the moment you pick up the phone to ask about a trip to the moment you return home, their customer service is superb - warm, informative and always with a personal touch. Their walking routes are well-researched and accurate and they provide a whole range of useful information to help you make the best of your trip. Their holidays have allowed us to stay in a variety of beautiful accommodation that we would never have found on our own. As a company I cannot rate them highly enough.

Amalfi Coast with On Foot by Mr P A 15, 4 Aug 2015

Great walking and relaxing hotels

We had 1 week of well-described daily walks from stylish and comfortable hotels in and away from a popular holiday destination on Amalfi coast. The walks were well described and at an appropriate level with some stunning views and interesting towns and villages along the way. Our hotels were all comfortable and the rooms were mostly quiet and some with good views. Breakfasts were with only 1 exception plentiful and enjoyable

We were from the outset given good information and had questions answered promptly and by friendly staff. The tour information provided was of very good quality with trip notes and destination information that was extremely useful and accurate. We have had no hesitation in recommending them to like minded friends.
