Umbria with On Foot by LPF, 21 Jun 2024
Holiday Rating:

Beautiful, interesting and historic route

We thoroughly enjoyed our walk in Umbria. On Foot had chosen a really lovely walk, getting us to beautiful places and accommodation we'd never otherwise find. We stayed in memorials places and had amazing meals, prepared by hosts who were proud to tell us about the amazing food and wine on the table. Overall, really excellent - from choosing and booking thorough the holiday itself. Recommended!

Always friendly, helpful and keen to work out what would really work for you. It feels very personal with On Foot - and good value compared to others. We know we can relax and enjoy our holiday as a result.

Lake Maggiore - self guided walk

In June this year, we enjoyed a week of hiking around Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta. This was self guided, staying in pre booked accommodation, bags transferred between locations. Full route maps and notes provided. we experienced fabulous scenery, great food and accommodation as well as getting to know the local guide - who was amazing. This trip had been originally booked in 2019, and due to personal events and COVID, we waited until 2024 to re-book...

We will book with them again.

ONFOOT are an extremely professional operator who pay attention to every detail. They know the routes personally and also provide a local contact to assist with additional questions and any assistance needed. When you deal with the ONFOOT team you feel that you are their only client - which of course you aren't. We have used them for various walks in Europe in the last 10 years and have never been disappointed with the organization, accommodation, maps, instructions and transfers.

Arcadia by RCM, 20 Jun 2024
Holiday Rating:

Arcadia was the best walking trip yet.

The Menalon Trail takes you through some staggeringly beautiful mountain scenery. The going can be tough but still no problem for an octogenarian. The places we stayed at each night were either good or very good. When we ate at tavernas, the food was not only excellent but represented remarkably good value.

This was our 6th trip with On Foot and we are already thinking about a 7th. The walking app was invaluable and worked extremely well. All arrangements, taxi rides and accommodation worked perfectly as they always do. Communications affecting the route were communicated to us during our holiday which was most helpful. Queries from us are answered very quickly even at weekends, a service you don't get from large companies.

Southern Tuscany by Happy Trekkers from Sussex, 18 Jun 2024

Stunning Trek in Tuscany

The whole experience was fantastic, even more spectacular than my friend and I imagined. Wei did the 5 night Tuscan trek, starting at Buonconvento through to Multipulciano. Right from the start we were utterly stunned by the scenery; the endless rolling hills, the iconic cypress trees, the vineyards and the 360 degree views. The accommodation along the way were mostly perfect - quirky and with so much character. The walking was made very ...

The whole experience was fantastic, even more spectacular than my friend and I imagined. Wei did the 5 night Tuscan trek, starting at Buonconvento through to Multipulciano. Right from the start we were utterly stunned by the scenery; the endless rolling hills, the iconic cypress trees, the vineyards and the 360 degree views. The accommodation along the way were mostly perfect - quirky and with so much character. The walking was made very easy with the level of detail in the written instructions. We used the recommended GPS as well but it wasn't really needed though a good backup.

Rating for tour operator:

On Foot Holidays were excellent, returning messages very quickly, giving us advice as to where to stay for a few extra days afterwards (Multipulciano, Siena and Pisa). My friend had an ankle injury before the holiday and we were unsure how much we would be able to do; On Foot Holidays gave us advice about the individual days and shorter alternatives. They could not have been more friendly and helpful.

Ligurian Hills by PaulC, 18 Jun 2024

A demanding and thrilling walk through the solitude of the Appennines

On Foot Holidays booked us a 6 night, 5 day trek south through the Appennines on the "Salt Road" (Via di Sale). We climbed to 1700m with a 360 view over the mountains and the Po valley, and back down to the Mediterranean at Camogli. For the first three days we did not see a single other person, but wildlife and cows galore: the birdsong and the cowbells were the only things interrupting the complete silence. The walking was tough, but rewarding...

The walking was tough, but rewarding. The welcome was warm and the plumbing good in all the places we stayed, even in the most remote parts of the trail. We were glad not to be leading mules laden with salt, though...

Rating for tour operator:

On Foot Holidays planned and organised the whole week, including all the incidental transfers. They provided detailed trail guides for every metre of the way. The vagaries of the way marking and the simplicity of the hamlets and villages we passed through meant we sometimes puzzled for a moment or two but we were never lost and the combination of guide, map and GPS meant we were never seriously in danger of straying. The combination of fairly rigorous walking with civilised lodgings and painless baggage transfer (no backpacks!) was ideal.

Arcadia by Sherry, 18 Jun 2024

Excellent Greek hiking experience

We did the Menalon Trail, hiking between mountain villages in Arcadia in the Greek Peloponnese and booked via OnFoot Holidays. The information provided and hiking support package from OnFoot Holidays was outstanding. The accommodation arranged and the Greek hosts were charming and the spring flowers in May spectacular.

OnFoot Holidays offer holidays that are off the beaten track in quieter areas of Europe - which are delightfully free from over-tourism. It was the first time we had booked with OnFoot but would do so again.

Amalfi Coast with On Foot by Ellie, 18 Jun 2024

A great way to really get to see the countryside

We spent much of the holiday walking the coastline from Amalfi, stopping in some fabulous places along the way. A fabulous way to really see and get a real feel for the various parts of the country. Reasuring to know we had the backup of On Foot for any queries along the way.

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. The B&Bs that we stayed at were so lovely - historic buildings, comfortable rooms, lovely hosts, and delicious food...

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!

Rating for tour operator:

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.
