Catalonia: El Priorat by Ellis, 12 Oct 2023
Holiday Rating:

A great antidote to the bustle of Barcelona

We walked about 60 miles over seven consecutive days with between 350 and 800 metres of ascent each day. The route was lovely and quite varied. Some forested slopes, some vineyard covered slopes, gorges and mountain ridge paths. The accommodation was always at least very good with the occasional outstanding. We always ate well. We visited several villages and small towns which all added to the colour of the holiday. We had the services of a ...

We walked about 60 miles over seven consecutive days with between 350 and 800 metres of ascent each day. The route was lovely and quite varied. Some forested slopes, some vineyard covered slopes, gorges and mountain ridge paths. The accommodation was always at least very good with the occasional outstanding. We always ate well. We visited several villages and small towns which all added to the colour of the holiday. We had the services of a local expert who we used very little. We did meet up with her one evening though and it became clear just how well she knew the area. She'd be brilliant if she was really needed. A great holiday and we had good weather too!

All accommodation was well chosen. The routes were all well researched and explained. Luggage transfer was seamless. We always knew what to expect. On Foot are a class act.

Yorkshire Dales by JoMas, 11 Oct 2023

Fabulous walking, meticulous instructions, charming accommodation

Thanks to On Foot we had the most excellent week walking in the Yorkshire Dales despite (or perhaps because of?) the bad, sometimes terrible, weather. Our first day's cab driver gave us the perfect intro to the Dales with so much local knowledge. We loved all the accommodation booked for us and ate very well (perhaps too well!) at the recommended places. And we walked many miles, brilliantly guided by On Foot's detailed notes and the GPS direct...

We loved all the accommodation booked for us and ate very well (perhaps too well!) at the recommended places. And we walked many miles, brilliantly guided by On Foot's detailed notes and the GPS directions, and with a friendly local contact at the end of the phone for advice. Highly recommended.

Detailed planning, from a friendly and knowledgeable team who are happy to answer every single question. Can't wait to travel again with them.

Camino de los faros - wild coastal beauty

We did a 6 day walk from Laxe to Finisterre. What a great adventure! Wild coastal beauty, quiet, mostly empty paths, friendly locals, excellent planning and instructions from On Foot Holidays. It was even better than I had hoped!

On Foot Holidays communicated with us well in advance, and sent us a very detailed folder with everything we needed for our holiday. Their attention to detail is impressive, and during our holiday the local contact was easily available to answer questions and give advice. They did everything possible to make sure our self-guided walk was stress-free. I would definitely go on another holiday with them!!

Umbria with On Foot by Jenny, 10 Oct 2023

Umbria

The route was described very well in advance and trail markings and directions were clear and easy to follow. The countryside is beautiful and the accommodations were really exceptional. The hosts were gracious, the food excellent and the locations were very picturesque and authentic. This route has rocky portions but those could be maneuvered. We did not encounter any other walkers on this route.

Northern Portugal with On Foot by Amy, 10 Oct 2023
Holiday Rating:

Fantastic walking in beautiful Northern Portugal booked through the excellent On Foot

Our five days of walking in Northern Portugal surpassed our expectations in terms of the route, scenery and accommodations. The route notes and other material supplied by On Foot - and the general service provided by their office team and local support - were fantastic and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend both the company and this particular trip.

We were really pleased with the service received from On Foot, they were always on hand to provide us with information and resolved any issues we had quickly and to our satisfaction. The route notes were perfectly detailed and the other handbooks and material provided were also of a high quality. Having a friendly local contact was also something we appreciated. It has also been nice to see how well they respond to feedback.

Independent walking without the hassle

Onfootholidays take care of booking accommodation, luggage transfers, (and taxis where needed), and provide detailed maps and route notes (as well as fascinating local information). This enables us to relax and enjoy the sense of journey, walking from village to village, staying in lovely places whilst eating great food. Perfect.

Every time we contact the office to enquire about another holiday, it feels as if we’re ‘phoning friends. Fantastic service.

Adventure in south of france

We walked over 100 miles from La Brigue to Menton on the coast , staying in small b & b / small hotels. Our baggage was taken on each morning to our destination of the day . Walks were challenging as we opted for the hardest route , scenery was breathtaking …a real adventure into nature .

The Lighthouse Way

This was our first experience with a self guided walking tour. We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed the entire experience. It is an unforgettable way to experience a country and its culture.

Every step of the way On Foot Holidays were there for us. Communication was always timely, explicit and informative. We were extremely impressed with the provided maps and detailed instructions as to what to expect daily on the trail. Our accommodations were very good considering the rural nature of our trip.
