On Foot Holidays Traveller Reviews

We completed the 6 night Basque Pyrenees to San Sebastian hike and loved every minute. There was enough challenge in the hill climbs to get the blood pumping and the legs working, and enough drama in the via ferrata section to get a buzz, without real fear of of slipping (much easier to say no it is done!). We went in late May and the weather was perfect. I am not sure if this is normal for for that time of the year but the sun shone us and the breeze came in when we needed it. The accommodation each night was of a high standard, with most being places we would definitely chose to stay in. Last time we used On Foot (Dolomites) we extended our stay by additional nights and if we had the time for this trip we really would have loved to have stayed in some of the same accommodations in the villages/towns for an additional night - just to make the most of them! We used the map app and walking notes - this took all the stress out of having to map read and we were able to take it all in and enjoy what was going on around us. Forest and farmlands, ridge walks, Pyrenees ponies, and every corner turned opening up to another spectacular view. Aznar, our local contact, was there if we needed him and the recommendations made for where to eat when dinner was not included were spot on. We were absolutely confident that if anything happened or support was required, Aznar would have been able to sort it out. San Sebastian is the perfect reward at the end of the hike! We had an extra night there at the end, and could have easily had another. A gorgeous place to explore, and eat/drink your way around. Finally, the other two groups doing the hike at the same time as us were brilliant. Great to be able to catch up with others at the end of the day, but still feel like the mountains all to ourselves.

As mentioned we have used On Foot before and are making plans to book again. We feel confident in booking with them knowing that everything will be taken care of and all we need to do is make sure we are hike ready. Any questions are answered quickly and all efforts are made to ensure there is nothing to worry about in the lead up to the trip, and during it. Love the range of options on offer and how easy it is to add nights. On Foot also make sure there are options to shorten distances or skip trickier bits. We haven't had to use these options - yet - but appreciate that they are there!

Stupendous scenery, excellent and diverse accommodation and meticulously detailed walking guidance from On Foot Holidays.

Prompt, friendly communication and local back up all excellent

We walked, we ate, we explored towns, we enjoyed our accommodations. Everything was great.

On Foot Holidays took care of every detail and their Walkers App is remarkable.

A group of 10 took the 4-day walking trip in Provence. It was a truly amazing experience. On Foot Holidays was attentive to every detail and a breeze to work with. The accommodations and meals were terrific and the proprietors at the inns were such delightful people. The On Foot Holidays app made navigating the route easy and the details about sites along the way were fantastic.

All of the people we interacted with at On Foot Holidays were terrific. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We set out for our starting point in Arizkun, with some trepidation, as the weather forecast, for the next five days, was very overcast and wet. However, we had mostly glorious sunshine and no rain at all for the four days of walking. We explored very interesting landscapes, architecture and culture and we thoroughly enjoyed this On Foot Holiday. Would strongly recommend, but a good level of fitness is needed.

Tour operator could not have been more helpful and attentive.

Five days of walking through beautiful rolling countryside, through quiet patches of forest and woods, up and over hills with magnificent views, and down into old and well-preserved English villages. The pubs and hotels we stayed in were all of the highest standard, warm and welcoming, providing great meals and pleasant surroundings to relax and recover. The full Dorset experience!

A lot of thought has gone into designing and planning this walk. Some days the walking is challenging in terms of distance and hills to be crested, but the rewards are there in terms of varied and at times breathtaking scenery. And there were always suggestions on offer to shorten and moderate the challenge. The track notes and the On Foot gps app are excellent and make for easy navigation. The accommodation is also varied and without exception of the highest standard. On the few occasions we had some logistics to deal with, the local contact was immediately responsive and resolved things for us.

A marvellous walk combining ocean and mountain scenery in largely unspoilt southern Italy

On Foot Holidays

On Foot Holidays provided us with a lovely walking journey through varied and gorgeous scenery in North Devon, UK. Their personalized service and attention to detail was outstanding. The information they provided gave us everything we could need for a successful trip. Even our weather was perfect, although I can't give On Foot credit for that. Their App alerted us when we strayed from the route, which was amazing. I felt so well cared for. The accommodations were all outstanding offering comfy beds and delicious breakfasts. I will suggest them to anyone looking for a walking holiday.

We felt very well cared for and our needs were understood.

We really enjoyed seeing the Rhine area from high above in addition to seeing it from the river level. Staying in multiple castles and seeing other castles was a real treat. Seeing the high areas where there were wonderful meadows and glorious woods in addition to beautiful fields of grains waving in the breeze-all above the Rhine River was such a visual spectacle. We also met great people along the way. We loved it and it certainly exceeded our expectations.

This was our 6th walk with On Foot Holidays and they are like family to us. The company provides so much more than the other four walking companies we have dealt with. The ferry and train schedules were often used. The shortening options were a great touch. The background and historical information gave insight into the many sights we saw. The restaurant suggestions were appreciated but we also liked the details regarding the trails themselves and what pleasantries or obstacles might be experienced. On Foot makes for a perfect experience in our minds. We continue to recommend On Foot to others.

The Bohemian Paradise walk was exceptional in both cultural exposure in the quaint Czech towns and the many Czech travelers and also the scenic beauty with hundreds of tall sandstone monolith formations, ancient castles, many wooded areas with evergreen trees and beautiful flower filled meadows. It was a fairytale come true and we loved it all. The Bohemian Paradise museum gave us insight into why the area has been historically important with the many gemstones found there.

Questions from the tour operator were answered immediately and thoroughly. Luggage was transferred smoothly. Background information provided historical context and provided insight into the sights seen. The App worked well but we also appreciated the many hardcopy maps provided. Information on Prague and a map of Prague were given even though it wasn't part of the walk. Many of us also took the city in. The places we stayed were excellent and included staying in a castle. Everything was personalized to and for us which was both useful and appreciated. The attention that On Foot paid to clients has been impressive.
