On Foot Holidays Traveller Reviews

We've been on self-guided walking holidays with several operators over the last decade but the experience of On Foot Holiday's trips is streets ahead of the others we've gone with. There was a supremely well-judged range and level of support before and during the trip. The walking routes itself well-designed and structured - taking place in a part of Italy (the Oltrepo Pavese into the Ligurian Hills) that is considered off-the beaten track, the notes you receive and the guidance ensure that you can't stray off the track they have chosen. Best of all is the accomodation. Some of it was more simple than others, thoroughly understandable given the relative remoteness of some of the stops, but it was unified by great local food and hosts who all had a clear and demonstrable passion for the area they live in. By the end of the route, it was a passion that we shared.

Second self-guided walking holiday with On Foot. Usually, we select an area we want to discover and then try to find a company that offers a walk there. On Foot are so good that we will now see where they offers walks and then choose from those - they are that good. Superb range of information and support to ensure that you choose the right walk, are informed about where you are going and what you will need. A clear of loving which shines through and personal experience of the walks. First class.

We have been hiking for 15 years plus and always with an organised tour company with guides. This self guided experience was one of the highlights of our adventures to date and feel very confident in recommending this choice to anyone. The Alps to the Mediterranean was exciting, full of wonderful landscapes, food, history and importantly the hospitality afforded to us, very good hosts especially in La Brigue. The guide book, maps and the GPS made the trip easy and gave us confidence to try other options in the future. All the Staff at On Foot Holidays were absolutely great to deal with, prompt replies, efficient and friendly. Overall excellent.

Everyone we dealt with were knowledgeable, friendly and prompt in responding to our concerns.

This was no stroll in the park. The walking was quite tough, especially as it got rather hot, although it was only the first half of May. But the views were spectacular, the food delicious and the people very friendly and hospitable. The type of accommodation varied - from a luxurious hotel to a log cabin - but each overnight stop had its own charm.

This was our third walk with On Foot Holidays and we intend to come back for more! Their people were unfailingly friendly and helpful and everything was efficiently organised: taxi transfers and luggage transport were faultless, background information and tips on restaurants, for example, were useful and the route description was (for the most part) accurate.

On Foot have created a beautiful walking holiday in the Priorat region of Spain, where you stay in a range of fabulous accommodation and sample some of the fantastic local cuisine. The routes are varied and interesting and, combined with the places you stay, really let you get a feel for this under explored region.

This is our fourth trip with On Foot and won't be our last. From the moment you pick up the phone to ask about a trip to the moment you return home, their customer service is superb - warm, informative and always with a personal touch. Their walking routes are well-researched and accurate and they provide a whole range of useful information to help you make the best of your trip. Their holidays have allowed us to stay in a variety of beautiful accommodation that we would never have found on our own. As a company I cannot rate them highly enough.

A six day self guided trek from San Candido to Cortina with hotel accommodation and luggage transfer.

Superbly organised holiday. Comprehensive information on route finding and all aspects of local environment, history, restaurants etc. Good hotels. Very helpful and professional staff. Our second trip with this company and will definitely use again.

We had 1 week of well-described daily walks from stylish and comfortable hotels in and away from a popular holiday destination on Amalfi coast. The walks were well described and at an appropriate level with some stunning views and interesting towns and villages along the way. Our hotels were all comfortable and the rooms were mostly quiet and some with good views. Breakfasts were with only 1 exception plentiful and enjoyable

We were from the outset given good information and had questions answered promptly and by friendly staff. The tour information provided was of very good quality with trip notes and destination information that was extremely useful and accurate. We have had no hesitation in recommending them to like minded friends.

A WALKING HOLIDAY WITH A DIFFERENCE-no organising to do. Just book and On Foot does the rest for you! We went on the most amazing walks with excellent directions and maps provided. Stayed in lovely hotels and enjoyed excellent food.

Very efficient and a joy to correspond with. Nothing was too much trouble with our queries and they really know what they are doing.

Walking through the hinterland and the coastal areas of the Amalfi Coast hss been along held dream. The scenery was as spectacular as I had imagined and the colour of the seas was the deep turquoise that we read about and see in the travel brochures and wonder if it could be true. It is! The views, combined with steeply rising and challenging walks up on to cliff paths and down to tucked away villages created an adventure for us every day. We discovered a shepherd with his 100 sheep and goats; an isolated market gardener on the top of the walk from Positano and a man and his mules delivering potatoes on the steep steps of Praiano. The isolated areas were filled with wild flowers and we enjoyed the challenge of identifying them and of noting the hawks and falcons that combed the cliff areas above the coastal regions. The walking was of sufficient challenge but very do-able and we had a sense of achievement at the end of every completed leg of our journey.Throughout we were well supported by excellent route guides and our hotels provided us with comfortable and very agreeable accommodation each night.

Our Tour operator was attentive and the walking holiday was very well planned and supported.

This was a lovely 6 day jaunt through Slovenia: with meadows , hills, vineyards and traditional hospitality. The flora and fauna were wonderful. Very enjoyable

On Foot were wonderful: very efficient and caring. We always felt we were being watched over and looked after.

I hiked alone along the Amalfi coast through stunning scenery and charming, little towns. The hikes were roughly 4-5 hours per day, and sometimes quite challenging. It was a perfect active holiday, and the resting days I had inbetween came to good use.

They organised everything and took good care of me. It was no problem doing the whole trip alone.
