Galicia: Lighthouse Way Traveller Reviews

A walking village to village trek on the Spanish Galician coast. On Foot move all baggage forward to their pre-booked accommodation.

The trek was self guided and On Foot provided the most thorough instructions, maps, tips etc. that we have ever received from similar companies. Their in-country ground support was also excellent and in contact each day.

We had an excellent time, courtesy of the first-rate service we received from On Foot Holidays, perfect weather and very friendly and hospitable Portuguese.

This was our first time with On Foot Travel. We read about them and The Lighthouse Way in a Saturday newspaper and I contacted them. I had quite a number of conversations with various members of staff and they were unfailingly helpful and friendly. In fact I always felt that I was their most important customer ever!

A fantastic walk/trip! Stunning views with no crowd, one empty beache after another, cozy B&B/hotels, best seafood of my life.

We walked the Camino de Faro organized by On Foot Holiday. Our trip was well planned and thoughtful organized by OnFoot, we had very good local support and cozy accommodations. We met many warm & kind local B&B hosts. OnFoot also provided us with a detailed packet included information of cultural, history and local wildlife/flora & fauna, so informative.

An amazing 6 day walk along part of the Galician Coast in North West Spain. Walking solo following the Atlantic coast line, covering varied distances through unspoilt coastal villages, along cliff tops and occasionally inland through countryside and woodland. Everchanging scenery from rugged wave battered rocks to perfect white sand crescent beaches, following the chain of lighthouses to reach Finisterre ( end of the earth). Staying in a variety of different types of accommodation all of a very good standard, sampling the wonderful fresh seafood along the way.

On Foot Holidays provided everything needed, maps, walking notes, accommodation details and suggestions for meals along the route. The very knowledgeable team answered all my questions efficiently from my very first enquiry, nothing was too much trouble. My luggage was transported daily and airport transfers organised, including help with flights and an extra days extension to my holiday at the end.

Six days of excellent walking along the western coast of Spain, the Costa da Morte (Coast of Death), with first rate accomodations along the way. The maps, directions, pre-planning information, and local support throughout the adventure made this a remarkable vacation.

From the initial inquiry, through the farewell message On Foot provided excellent documentation, recommendations, and trip information. They left nothing to chance. I dont have lots of experience with this type of touring package, but I know this will be hard to beat.

On Foot Holidays provided an exceptional trip

We were greeted at Santiago airport and taken to Camarinas to begin our four day walk. Accommodation was very good, our hosts made us really welcome and the food and drink was excellent. We had support from Anzar who advised and booked taxis when the weather was inclement. The route was well signposted, the maps and guides very good. An adventure we really enjoyed.

On Foot Holidays sent us lots of information prior to departure, support was available throughout our stay and lots of practical advice to get the best out of our stay. Everything ran like clockwork.

Honestly one of the best trips we have ever done. Great weather, excellent hiking on uncrowded trails, wonderful food and wine, lovely people and fantastic logistics provided by On Foot Holidays. We would not change a thing except we wish we had done the 10 day trip instead of 7!

On Foot Holidays provided excellent organization and assistance throughout the trip. All included transportation and baggage handling was perfect and all the hotels they booked were great. The maps and instruction booklets were very detailed and the downloaded GPS maps were handy though we only needed them once or twice. The office support at On Foot is excellent as well, highly responsive to all inquiries and always pleasant and professional. We highly recommend this company and will definitely be taking another trip with them in the future!

we walked the Camino de Pharos in Galicia in about 12 days, staying in hotels booked by On Foot ( OF ) for us. OF also arranged all the taxi transfers for luggage and for lifts for ourselves, via their local representative, Aznar

OF gave us excellent service both at the booking stage and throughout the holiday. The logistics of this type of self-guided walking holiday in a remote area were challenging, but all the arrangements worked seamlessly.
