Wonderful country escape to the Yorkshire Dales!

We did a wonderful 6 day walking holiday with On Foot Holidays to the Yorkshire Dales. It was an amazing experience. On Foot provided excellent guides and GPS tracks and their customer service was so responsive! We had a knowledgeable local guide who stayed in contact with us throughout the trip to ensure everything was going smoothly.

We had a knowledgeable local guide who stayed in contact with us throughout the trip to ensure everything was going smoothly. The B&Bs that we stayed at were so lovely - historic buildings, comfortable rooms, lovely hosts, and delicious food. The walking was pastoral, with beautiful views of the rolling hills, lovely stonework, and quaint little villages. It captured that "All Creatures Great and Small" experience. We loved the trip, it exceeded our expectations and we hope to do another soon!

On Foot Holidays exceeded our expectations for customer service. They answered our many questions throughout the planning phase and ensured that we had everything we need to be prepared for walking. The guides they provided were excellent. The booking was wonderful and they were still very responsive during the trip when we had questions. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a walking holiday.

Terrific Trek in Tuscany

Walking from town to town across Tuscany is amazing. The region is a spectacular experience for all the senses; awesome views, wonderful smells, different sounds, tasty tastes, and the walking provides all the touch you need! We walked from Montalcino toMontepulciano over three days and cannot wait to do more.

On Foot Travels does a great job planning and preparing, both responsive and accommodating. The trail plan they provided and supporting materials and app provided all that we needed. The b&b’s / hotels were delightful and in many cases offered great views of the countryside.

Beautiful Walking/Hiking Experience across the Amalfi Coast

We just loved our experience walking/hiking along the Amalfi Coast - Amalfi to Sorrento. We had great weather and met lots of nice people along the way. On Foot Holiday provided us with an overall wonderful experience. The B&B's were clean, quaint and the staff was gracious and kind. Some of our stays we were able to have Sea views. A trip to remember for sure!

Very responsive and timely with accurate information! We loved using their new APP. It provided us all the tools we needed to get to/from our hotels in the different towns. We checked out many of the local restaurants they recommended, all were great! Highly recommend On Foot Holiday!

A fantastic well planned walk full of delightful cultural experiences and surprises

A fantastic well planned walk full of delightful cultural experiences and surprises - enchanting villages and valleys (each one with a different character); amazing oak forests; verdant green (so green) pastures; colourful spring wildflowers; misty mornings followed by sunny afternoons; welcoming hosts who treated us to very warm hospitality; varied walking through farmland, forests, and some lovely ridge walks. One of our favourite days was ...

A fantastic well planned walk full of delightful cultural experiences and surprises - enchanting villages and valleys (each one with a different character); amazing oak forests; verdant green (so green) pastures; colourful spring wildflowers; misty mornings followed by sunny afternoons; welcoming hosts who treated us to very warm hospitality; varied walking through farmland, forests, and some lovely ridge walks. One of our favourite days was a day when the country was cloaked in misty rain all day and we we arrived to a local guest house in one of the smaller villages to be treated to a welcoming meal of pimientos, a glass of wine and fresh local cherries for desert. The memory will stay with us always! The trip had so many highlights it is hard to name them all but one that was very special was the night we discovered by chance that the whole village was gathering in the town square for a night of storytelling and traditional Basque dancing and singing, accompanied by local musicians. It was fantastic to gain these small insights into Basque culture, and left us wanting to know more about the history and ways of life of the Basque people.

This was our fourth walk with On Foot, and as always the support from the central office in advance of the walk was very helpful. Every question we had was answered promptly, and the advice for planning our itinerary (including some rest days) was excellent. The combination of walking notes, maps and GPS routes made planning each day easy, and we never had any difficulty navigating any of the routes. We had planned to take some of the shortening options, but the walking notes and opportunity to see different parts of the region enticed us to take the longer options most days. The support from Aznar - our local contact - was outstanding. He made sure we knew what restaurants were open, gave us advice when were a bit concerned about the impact of the rain on our next day's route, checked in on how we were going especially early on, and made sure our luggage got from Bera to Hondarribia before a local strike blockaded the border.

Challenging and enjoyable

Three days walking about 20km every day was challenging but very enjoyable through some beautiful countryside. Having the app on the mobile proved very useful as the terrain was sometimes confusing. Although we didn’t need it, it was comforting to know help was only a phone call away! The hotels and their restaurants were first class!

Ribeira Sacra hike - 9 days

We were first time organised hikers from Australia who decided that a nine day walk in Northern Spain would be our next adventure. What an amazing experience it was. Rain nearly every day, only meeting four other hikers along the route, not speaking the language but making some cherished memories along the way. We challenged ourselves and felt proud of our achievements.

Wonderful walking in the Riberia Sacra

We loved pretty much everything about this holiday. On Foot provided an excellent service through the booking process and their guide, Aznar, could not have been more helpful.

The walking itself was wonderful - peaceful days walking through gorgeous river gorges, vineyards, lovely chestnut and oak woods and atmospheric villages. We hardly saw another walker all week. For the most part the only sound was birdsong and we managed to identify almost forty different birds! The wild flowers everywhere only added to the experience. We stayed in lovely accommodation each night and were sorry to have to end the trip!

On Foot is very professional and responsive. They deliver as promised and your trip and personal well-being are in good hands. If you have never done a self-guided hike and are nervous, this is the company for you. They handle all the details and give guidance on pre and post side trips also!
