Almalfi Coast
A great walking holiday somewhere we had never been to before. Wonderful scenery and good accommodation

Did a great job.Returned phone calls promptly. Very good and detailed arrangements, happy to assist with changes we wanted to make. The walking maps they supplied were more than adequate for our purposes They had clearly checked out the accommodation unlike another walking company we have recently used We will certainly use them again and have recommened them to others





Excellent walking, food and scenery.
. It was a brilliant holiday. The maps, references and information for the walks were good and the scenery and ancient sights we encountered were often breath taking. The hotels along the route were very varied in standard, some of them were excellent and others less so. Food was invariably good and the staff friendly and helpful.

On Foot went out of their way to cater for our needs. We wanted to do a 7 day walking holiday in 11 day with an extra 3 tacked onto the end. They arranged everything perfectly for us and at no time did we have any hiccup in the arrangements even though there were numerous opportunities for this to happen. When we had a problem at one of the hotels they sorted it out immediately. On our return they asked for feedback which they responded to quickly. Would thoroughly recommend them to other walkers.





Wonderful walk through Dorset - in the steps of Thomas Hardy
My holiday was a walk from Salisbury to Lyme Regis in England. The 7 days included some beautiful villages, farming country and coastline. The walk was well planned and excellent information was provided by On Foot Holidays on the countryside, including the geography and literary associations (e.g. Thomas Hardy's novels). The walk was rated as medium difficulty, which was correct so met my expectations. Each day I walked from about 18 to 25 ...

The walk was rated as medium difficulty, which was correct so met my expectations. Each day I walked from about 18 to 25 kilometres. The final day was along the Jurassic Coast, which was magnificent. The destination, Lyme Regis, was a fascinating town and well worth spending an extra day there, which I did.

On Foot Holidays staff were brilliant - very professional and communicative. The booking process was easy. The material to prepare for the walk was sufficiently detailed, arrived very promptly and they were very helpful at all stages. The accommodation booked was extremely comfortable and my luggage always arrived at the destination hotel. This was the second walk I have done with On Foot Holidays, the other being in Tuscany in 2012, and I plan to do more.

walking round the southern italian coastline
self directed walking holiday using both maps and descriptions, Food great. all instructions were so detailed even when unsure within a few hundred meters it is made obvious you have taken the wrong path. stayed at several different hotels en-route. All the accommodation was exceptional and very homely, never felt like a number or just another 'punter'

Fantastic Slovenia on Foot
We went walking in Slovenia. The places we stayed were varied in style but the quality was always great. Gregor our first face to face contact with On Foot holidays was so welcoming and informative. He certainly looked after us. The extra day at the beginning to see Lake Bled was well worth it despite the weather. The walk instruction were spot on and the routes very enjoyable. The accommodation at the end of each day was great the hospitality ...

The accommodation at the end of each day was great the hospitality couldn't have been better. The special treat of a terrace pool on the Tourist Farm Skerlj at Tomaj really was the icing on the cake. The food on the tourist farms was exceptional, and frequently surpassed our expectations. We spent two days in Trieste which got us back into the real world after lovely days spent wondering through the beautiful changing Slovenian countryside. Lots more to explore in Slovenia and will definitely return to explore more!

I travelled with a friend and she dealt directly with On Foot. The were very informative and kept us very well informed, answered all questions we had and were very knowledgeable about the country and routes. Nice touch was a phone call a couple of days before we left to wish us a happy holiday followed by a call when we got back to make sure that our trip had gone well. Would definitely recommend them to others.





Fabulous Slovenia
The whole holiday was marvellous - the walks themselves, the landscape,woods as far as the eye can see, flower-filled meadows, the people, a nice finale in Trieste and the organisation and support of On Foot Holidays.

Garrotxa Grandeur
My wife and I hiked six days in the Garrotxa region of Catalunya northwest of Barcelona. The route selected provided a fine mix of forest and flora, mediaeval villages, fascinating and spectacular geography. We'd been told to expect afternoon thundershowers at that time of year (September) but the weather turned out to be glorious -- sunny and clear, not a drop of rain. We hiked up to 20 km a day, climbing as much as 800 m, which was just about ...

We hiked up to 20 km a day, climbing as much as 800 m, which was just about right for us 60-somethings. The hike gave us a trove of excellent photos and very positive memories.

Our arrangements (hotels, luggage transfer, navigation instructions etc.) were made by On Foot and they were all first-rate. We had no prior experience with On Foot so we didn't know what to expect but, looking at our experience in the rear-view mirror, we have nothing but good things to say about On Foot.





Hiking in Northern Portugal
In September 2013 my wife and I did a "On Foot Holidays" seven day hike in the hill country of Peneda-Geres Portugal. On Foot Holidays provided us with detailed trail maps, trail notes, and directions for transportation to the start point. They arranged lodging, transport of our luggage and provided us with local contact.

On Foot Holidays does a wonderful job of planning independent hiking vacations in a number of countries and locations. They do a very complete job of taking care of all the details so that their clients have an enjoyable and trouble free hiking vacation. They are a pleasure to work with. We have enjoyed On Foot Vacations in France, Spain and most recently Portugal.





A delightful trek, with excellent instructions, over beautiful mountains in Northern Italy
On Foot Holidays organised for a group of 6 of us to walk about 100 miles in Liguria, staying in small hotels en route. They made the bookings, and arranged for luggage to be carried from one hotel to the next, and - most importantly - supplied excellent instructions telling us exactly where to walk, sometimes on small paths and nearly all in areas without signposts.

All arrangements were efficiently made, including some special arrangements for one member of the party who had to join 24 hours later than the others.
