Ligurian Hills by Dr John, 28 May 2025
Holiday Rating:

Lovely Liguria.

A great six day walk across the Apennines from the Po valley to the Ligurian Riviera. Notable for the high, historic paths; the quality of the stopovers - welcome, accommodation, wonderful local food and wine; the wildlife, and the peacefulness. And after several long days on the trot, the luxuries of Camogli, a lovely Riviera town.

Great route, great walking notes, great local support, and a nice personal feel to all dealings with them.

Fabulous walking holiday through rural North West Italy (Lombardy/Liguria)

This was our second holiday with On Foot Holidays, and once again, their local knowledge ensured that we had a perfect experience of a beautiful and unspoiled region of Italy. The hosts at each of our stopover destinations were incredibly helpful and the food was outstanding. A perfect way to refuel after a day's walking in the hills.

On Foot Holidays are a superb organisation who provide an exceptional service. Their customer care and attention to detail are second to none. They also provide superb local backup in each of their destination countries.

Cilento National Park by Barbara , 27 May 2025
Holiday Rating:

Stunning walk in Southern Italy

Four of us spent six days walking along the coast and in the woodlands and hills of the Cilento National Park. The routes were sufficiently challenging and without exception, quite beautiful. In May, the wild flowers are at their best and we were accompanied by birds, butterflies and so many little green lizards we lost count. We have walked a few times in Italy but this was by far the most unspoilt. We passed through some enchanting villages ...

In May, the wild flowers are at their best and we were accompanied by birds, butterflies and so many little green lizards we lost count. We have walked a few times in Italy but this was by far the most unspoilt. We passed through some enchanting villages but apart from at our accommodation, we met hardly anyone. We stayed in a great variety of accommodation from an old convent in the hills to a couple of quite amazing hotels by the sea.

We have now used On Foot several times to organise our walking holidays around Europe. Every time they prove to be efficient and helpful when sorting out our needs. However, the best thing about working with them is that every member of the team is so friendly and genuinely cares that we have the most enjoyable holiday possible. The routes they offer have been walked by members of the team so they can give first hand information and advice. We are already discussing our trip for 2026!

Southern Tuscany by Susan, 26 May 2025

Tuscany is a fantastic place for walking!

The Tuscany countryside come to life is just like the paintings we've seen only much better, of course. Going from hilltop town to hilltop town gave us such a scenic and intimate look at this uncrowded part of Italy. The background information provided by On Foot Holidays certainly enhanced our experience. Our luggage was transferred smoothly. The places we stayed were wonderful!

Going from hilltop town to hilltop town gave us such a scenic and intimate look at this uncrowded part of Italy. The background information provided by On Foot Holidays certainly enhanced our experience. Our luggage was transferred smoothly. The places we stayed were wonderful! The towns we went to each had something unique to offer and all were charming. Our walks not only took us into the beautiful, classic Tuscan countryside but sometimes we were in woods too. We went to abbeys, cathedrals and small chapels. It was all very diverse and interesting.

Rating for tour operator:

They personalize every individual trip and become like family. I have had contact with a number of staff and they all immediately address any questions/concerns I may have in addition to being friendly yet professional. The information provided is very comprehensive and we like the App along with the numerous hardcopy maps. I have referred many others to this company encouraging others to enjoy the benefits of walking holidays.

A life time of memories

We enjoyed every minute of this holiday. The walking was challenging enough to feel a sense of accomplishment and the views each day made the climbs worth it. The accommodations were fabulous and the food outstanding.

Lake Maggiore by Susan, 25 May 2025
Holiday Rating:

The Surprising Lake Maggiore area.

We had never been to the Italian Lake district and found it to be a breathtaking experience. It was fun taking the ferry around. The walks took us to islands and neighboring woods and meadows. The islands of Lake Maggiore offered so much in the way of sumptuous palaces, beautiful gardens and quaint towns. Everywhere we looked there were flowers blooming. Walking in the mountains and along ridges was gorgeous. Along the way we met interesting ...

On Foot Holidays continues to be my favorite walking tour company and we've done 16 distance walks now and used 5 companies but On Foot hands down is the best we've experienced. The personalized nature of the materials and staff is a big draw. We like that there is a local contact should we need one. The materials provided are always comprehensive and of high quality. Our luggage transfers are done without a hitch. The places we stay are excellent.

Flowers, butterflies and birds in Cilento, Italy

It was extremely well organised with lovely accommodation in delightful places. The walking was fabulous- a combination coastal paths and mountains!!

It was extremely well organised with lovely accommodation in delightful places. The walking was fabulous- a combination coastal paths and mountains!! We found that the companion app provided an excellent resource and made navigation easy. The information provided in the app about the local area enabled us to make the most of our holiday! To go in May was wonderful - the wild flowers were some of the best we’ve ever seen, the birds were in great song and we saw many varieties of butterflies. The walk worked well with a good mix of longer and shorter days. Our favourite day was the climb and descent from Monte Stella. We had great weather and the walking was through beautiful woodland for most of the day.

Rating for tour operator:

The Onfoot team are fabulous. Not only when planning the holiday but also when we’re there. They are very good at putting a walk together that is meaningful, beautiful and peaceful and equally good at finding interesting, quirky and sometimes remote places to stay. They are obviously well respected by the host accommodation and more often than not have met them personally. This means that we are always made to feel very welcome and this is important at the end of a long day of walking. We can honestly say that our Onfoot holidays are the most relaxing holidays that we have mainly because of the confidence we have in their ability to deliver exceptional experiences!! ( based on 10 holidays in several different countries!)

Dorset by Kamara, 23 May 2025

A beautiful walk in Dorset

This was a once in a decade trip for us (me and my sister). We travelled from Canada to the UK to walk from Cerne Abbas to Lyme Regis, and had a fantastic time. The vistas, the people, and the accommodations were just fantastic. The walks were challenging, but we felt so accomplished each evening. We went to bed excited for what the next day would bring.

Dordogne Walk

We've done a number of hikes/walks over the years but this was probably the best. Beautiful countryside, incredible villages that seem as though time has hardly touched them since the middle ages, excellent hotels with some of the friendliest people we have ever experienced on a hike and rhe food! Incredibly good. And of all the tour companies we've used, On Foot Holidays is head and shoulders above them all. The communication is fast, friendly ...

Incredibly good. And of all the tour companies we've used, On Foot Holidays is head and shoulders above them all. The communication is fast, friendly and very helpful. All the nformation sent to use was thorough and detailed. And the app was incredible. If we went even a short distance off course, it would correct us. Really hard to get lost unless you want to! Really happy to have found On Foot Holidays. We're already looking at booking another walk through them..

We walked from place to place in the Basque pyrenees ending up in San Sebastian.
