On Foot Holidays Traveller Reviews

A glorious week’s walking in the Dolomites

Always friendly, helpful and highly professional

Well organised, well represented by the information and good varied accommodation. We love combining walking in interesting areas with taking a little longer and visiting a nearby city.

A small independent company that make a real effort to get the details right. They also put on interesting walking options along with the more standard destinations.

A group of six long-time friends and hiking companions took a 6 day self-guided hiking/walking trip in Slovenia ( Slovenia - The Karst) organized by On Foot Holidays. This was a trip that we had planned to take in 2020, but was delayed due to Covid.

On Foot is simply brilliant. Four of us had been on an On Foot holiday before. Our experience the last time was marvelous and this time it was no different. During the 2 year delay caused by Covid, On Foot stayed in touch. In the lead up to our trip they were extremely responsive, and attended immediately to every question or request. Everyone we communicated with was pleasant and efficient, and it didn't matter who at On Foot we were communicating with - they all seemed to know everything about our trip and had answers to all ur questions. On Foot arranged every detail of the trip, provided maps. - both paper and GPS - for every day's hike, written turn-by-turn instructions for every day's hike, etc. They arranged transportation where it was required - and when a taxi was supposed to turn up, it did! On time! The hotels /pensions/B&B's were fairly simple but completely adequate, and the accommodations were exactly as requested. The food was good. It is hard to think of anything they could have done better. We are already thinking about our next trip with On Foot.

We spent 7 nights (5 walking days) in the Basque region. Our trek began in Elizondo and finished in Donastia. The walks were excellent, hosts wonderful and food good to excellent.

On Foot we’re very knowledgeable and accommodating during the planning stages and supportive as needed during our walk. Actually, everything was planned so well and clearly communicated that we really didn’t need any support during our trip.

Everything was absolutely perfect. The stunning walks which led me through the most amazingly gorgeous countryside. The small hamlets with houses draped in roses, to the welcoming inns with their well appointed rooms that served up delicious meals. I saw places that most people would not be able to see because of their remoteness and just plain not knowing that they are out there. The walking route was truly magnificent. Could not ask for a better experience.

The communication with On Foot Holiday was as smooth as anything I have ever experienced. They got back to me with inquiries large and small in a timely manner. The route notes were extraordinary, mind you, I am a first time walker plus I did this solo yet managed never to get lost. I credit this to the clarity of OFH's directions. Very little road walking. Just an extremely well mapped out route taking me through spectacular countryside. The inns chosen by OFH were absolutely spot on.

Amalfi, Ravello, and Positano were too touristy but other places we stayed or passed through were lovely. The walks traversed a good variety of environments - village, agricultural, forest, woodland - with fantastic views and a good insight into life on the Amalfi peninsula. We had many pleasurable interactions with local people, and enjoyed the feeling of being welcome beyond the expected tourist reception.

On Foot Holidays were excellent and thorough. They responded promptly to any requests for information and help, and the organisation and background material for the tour was very good.

A very interesting and varied walk starting in Chagford and finishing in Dartmouth.

Very thorough arrangements. Very helpful, friendly and supportive.

The Castles of the Rhine was our third walking holiday with On Foot Holidays and was the best so far, helped by the warm sunny weather which meant jumpers remained in the suitcases the whole week. We orginally planned to do this in September 2020 but due to Covid, it was postponed twice and this was to our advantage as we could have an extra day walking than we might have had in 2020. We stared at Lorch and finished at Koblenz - most days involved a ferry crossing which was easy and then started the walk with an ascent. The views were stunning down the Rhine and each hotel was welcoming, the stay at Schloss Rheinfels was particularly memorable with a good restaurant with excellent service. On Foot and the hotel had co-ordinated so well, that the waiter knew Margaret could not eat onions!

On Foot are a great companty with very helpful and flexible staff, we are now thinking which walk to do in 2023. We had to rebook this twice due to Covid and Agin Foot were very helpful in doing this and made no charge at all for doing this.

We spent five days in the region, including four days of self-guided walking. It was wonderful.

The entire team at On Foot is fantastic. They are extraordinarily responsive and creative, and a true pleasure to work with. When booking our holiday, there were a few complications and the On Foot team showed tremendous determination and creativity to make the whole thing work for us. We have taken three holidays with them and will do more in the future.

We worked with On Foot Holidays to plan an amazing walk through the Devon countryside and Dartmoor National Preserve. Along the way, not only did we enjoy the most beautiful scenery and wildlife, but every lodging we visited was exceptional in it's friendliness, comfort, and charm. OFH went out of the way to ensure our walking routes maximized views and diverse terrain to ensure a hiking trip that was both lovely and exciting.

They are the best. They are incredibly responsive and extremely helpful. They really listen to your concerns and help you make modifications to your trip so that it suits your special needs or interests. For such a modest price, you feel like you are enjoying a bespoke experience. Working with them is a real joy.
