La Gomera - the unique one
It was very well organised and very well planned, thoroughly enjoyable and with the right level of challenge and reward. The challenge is presented by the very special topography of this volcanic island and the rewards are those of discovering breathtaking vistas and amazing discoveries in the most unexpected places. The landscapes are spectacular, in some places nature in the raw; a wild rocky harsh environment. In others nature tamed with ...
It was very well organised and very well planned, thoroughly enjoyable and with the right level of challenge and reward. The challenge is presented by the very special topography of this volcanic island and the rewards are those of discovering breathtaking vistas and amazing discoveries in the most unexpected places. The landscapes are spectacular, in some places nature in the raw; a wild rocky harsh environment. In others nature tamed with awesome stone terracing and intense cultivation. The laurisilva cloud forest areas are special, especially so when shrouded in mists; dark, cool and mysterious. And then you descend into the warmth and sunshine of the lower elevations. Hotels were well chosen and of high standard. Transport when scheduled between stops was reliable and luxurious.
Rating for tour operator:On-Foot were particularly efficient at assisting us to add in extra days and provided well informed advice about the locations. The pre-tour planning was very good as was the pre-tour information. Routes were well chosen and the GPS tracked guidance was spot-on. On island guidance and advice, provided by their Spanish representative was top-rate and immediate in response to the very few queries that we had.
Great organisation and service from a friendly team who work hard to tailor things to your needs.
Six days' place to place walking in the Yorkshire Dales through beautiful scenery and pretty villages, staying in Guesthouses and pubs with great food and drink. We loved the area and the length of days was just right for us given that there was some ascent each day. Excellent local knowledge from the local representative who developed the route and phoned us at the start to check all was OK.

Walking in beauty
The Amalfi Coast is such a gorgeous place to walk, and we felt lucky to see sights we never would have found had we not been traveling on foot. Highly recommended!

Rating for tour operator:On Foot provided loads of details and directions to make our walking holiday go smoothly. The company was quick to respond to questions and offer advice.
Amazing trek through the Alps-Maritime in France
Beautiful views, wonderfully small towns that were absolute gems. Hiking trails were well marked and the gps tracker made up for any uncertainties.

Rating for tour operator:This was my 2nd trip with On Foot. As before, always so quick to respond, so easy to work with. They have developed an excellent network of places to stay, as well as trails. Their local guide was very informative and helpful each time he was contacted, both by Whatsapp and by phone.
Amalfi Coast
I traveled solo in mid to late October, but the walks and accommodations were still quite busy. I followed the walking routes designed by OnFoot Holidays and really enjoyed the spectacular scenery and hospitality offered by my hotels. I loved setting out each mornin-- map, directions and GPS in hand--and discovering what the day would bring. The notes provided included several options for each day's walking. It was a joy to go on this adventure...

Rating for tour operator:OnFoot Holidays offers top-notch customer service from initial enquiry to final follow-up. They went above and beyond my expectations, including detailed information about transport schedules and options available on each day of the trip. Any questions I had were always fully and quickly answered.
Brilliant walk from Ljubljana to Trieste
An interesting walk through varied and lovely countryside, sometimes with stupendous views. Slovenia was new to us and its history and mitteleuropean location was fascinating.

Rating for tour operator:Helpful and friendly all the way, from first enquiry onwards.
Meticulous planning makes a great walk in Dorset
We chose this walking tour because our family heritage is rooted in Dorset. The tour fit us perfectly because we wanted to spend extra time in some locations and OFH created a custom schedule that fit our needs. We appreciated OFH's built-in options to adjust that day's walking distance. Their walking instructions and GPS tracking maps were easy to use, spot on, and ensured we never got lost. Kudos to OFH for their welcoming and comfortable ...

Kudos to OFH for their welcoming and comfortable hotel choices. OFH always ensured that the hotels had advance notice of my dietary needs and allergens. Our entire experience was pleasurable and memorable and OFH made this possible.
Rating for tour operator:From start to finish, our tour operator was attentive, thorough, and detailed. They anticipated our every possible need and even provided information for scheduling our transportation needs before and after our walking tour. On Foot Holidays exceeded our expectations!
Hiking the Menalon Trail/Arcadia Greece
We opted for the On Foot Holiday 6 night route with an additional 3 rest days in Vitina, Stemnitsa and Dimitsana. Hiking this area of Greece is first rate. Gorgeous scenery and magical mountain villages. Our itinerary included a home stay that was the highlight of our trip.

Rating for tour operator:Always available, quick to respond to any questions, friendly, good sense of humor, people on the ground in Greece helpful, reliable and very friendly. On Foot covers every last detail, incl hiking the opposite direction as most, a little bit of genius making the village of Dimitsana the final prize. Route notes, maps, and GPS app were indispensable. The only thing OFH doesn't do is walk for you!
Thoroughly enjoyable
We walked for 5 days through a variety of terrains, some challenging, others less so, staying in very comfortable hotels en route

Rating for tour operator:On Foot Holidays - they were efficient and friendly and the logistics worked seamlessly from beginning to end
A beautiful walk in unspoilt Greek countryside
We enjoyed a self-guided walk along the Menalon Trail in the unspoilt Arcadia region of the Peloponnese in Greece. We walked along well-signposted ancient paths, passing through many delightful mountain villages. The scenery was richly varied, the hosts at our B&B accommodation were very welcoming, while the local dishes were a daily treat.

Rating for tour operator:This was our seventh trip with On Foot Holidays. They design the route, provide detailed and easy-to-follow walking instructions, organise all of the accommodation en route, and arrange daily baggage transfers. All we have do is turn up and walk, knowing that we don't need to worry about any aspect of the holiday.
