brilliant organisation

The success of a Self-guided walking holiday depends on preparation and backup. Our walking holiday in Andalucia was a great success because the guidance was brilliant and the accommodation, etc were great. we were even able to change what we did on the last day the previous evening!

Delightful from start to finish.

The walks were along very interesting routes and the accommodation was always a pleasant surprise at the end of the day. Having your luggage transferred adds to the overall enjoyment of the trip.

Andalucian Cultural Trek

My On Foot Andalucian holiday was very memorable. I loved getting into the ancient heart of Andalucia, hiking through antique olive orchards and pastures that were created by hand centuries ago. We hiked down an 1800 year old Roman road. We climbed an ancient watchtower. We passed by countless stone fences from time immemorial, some very high in the mountains, that told the agricultural history of the area. And we passed by flocks of goat and ...

My On Foot Andalucian holiday was very memorable. I loved getting into the ancient heart of Andalucia, hiking through antique olive orchards and pastures that were created by hand centuries ago. We hiked down an 1800 year old Roman road. We climbed an ancient watchtower. We passed by countless stone fences from time immemorial, some very high in the mountains, that told the agricultural history of the area. And we passed by flocks of goat and sheep, sometimes with attending shepherds, that made it a living history. I marveled at the connection I felt with the history of this area throughout the holiday. The hike was well thought out. The lengths were perfect for a challenging daily trek ,but allowing enough time to find our hotels, freshen up, and head out for some daily tapas and exploration of the local town. i will remember this holiday for it's beauty, solitude and unique cultural experience for years to come. I have already spread the word about On Foot Holidays to friends and family and am looking at booking future trips for myself. I highly recommend On Foot to anyone who is looking for a genuine cultural experience.

The service provided by On Foot Holidays exceeded my expectations. The level of organization was perfect. On Foot thought of every detail, from packing tips, to help with travel suggestions to and from the route. In addition they personalized the experience by helping coordinate my trip with the trip of another client and close friend of mine. Though we made separate bookings On Foot knew that we planned to hike together and went out of their way to book us in the same hotels and restaurants when possible. From booking questions through travel preparation and finally in follow up On Foot was very responsive. Emails were returned promptly and all questions were addressed directly and thoroughly and with a cheery tone. I couldn't be happier with On Foot Holidays.

Joyful walking in stunning nature

We walked in Andalucia through breathtaking scenery and enjoyed every day. Months later we still reminisce.

Andalusia self-guided walk with On Foot Holidays

As with our previous walks with this tour operator, everything went flawlessly. The six-day walk from Zahara to Ronda went through staggeringly beautiful countryside, varying from day to day. The villages along the way we're wonderful, the people friendly and helpful, and our accommodations were excellent.

Mary and the team at On Foot Holidays did a fantastic job, as they have with our previous walks. They planned and executed every detail of our trip wonderfully, including travel arrangements, route information, accommodations, and meals. We've learned to have complete confidence in their thoroughness and reliability.

fabulous andalucia holiday

The walking holiday from village to village in Andalucia was excellent. The hotels are great and the self guided hike were perfect. On Foot Holidays took great care to make sure everything is taken care of . There is a local person to contact in case of emergency and the routes were very well planned. For those who does not like to walk 5-6 hours a day there are plenty of options. I am already planning my next trip with them.

On Foot Journey is very attentive and very detail oriented. I had to miss my original trip dates due to an accident and they had no trouble postponing and re booking my trip. They respond to their emails promptly and I really think they are a first class operator.

Well organised with excellent walks off the beaten track. Well chosen accommodation

As a family we went walking in Andalucia in Spain. On foot organised a very good walking itinerary with intimate knowledge of the walks which only a guided knowledge would be able to follow. The walk instructions were very detailed. The accommodation was excellent with very clean rooms and friendly hosts. All the transfers were on time and hassle free. The length of walks were perfect with a great sense of achievement each day with stunning views...

An exhilarating 6 day Christmas walking holiday in Andalucia

We flew on the 23rd December leaving storm strewn Gatwick, arriving in Malaga in warm bright sunshine. Our friendly taxi driver was waiting to take us to Zahara, our first white village, where we would start our walking holiday. Over the week we stayed in 3 villages, ending up for 2 luxurious nights in the fabulous Parador at Ronda. We had detailed instructions of the walks each day, which took us through the most beautiful and varied countryside...

We flew on the 23rd December leaving storm strewn Gatwick, arriving in Malaga in warm bright sunshine. Our friendly taxi driver was waiting to take us to Zahara, our first white village, where we would start our walking holiday. Over the week we stayed in 3 villages, ending up for 2 luxurious nights in the fabulous Parador at Ronda. We had detailed instructions of the walks each day, which took us through the most beautiful and varied countryside. While we were walking our bag was ferried to our next hotel, but on the 2 days of storms we were able to travel by taxi with our bag. The hotels were warm, cosy and clean, with lots of hot water, and the people were very friendly and hospitable. We had some delicious meals, especially at Grazalema, where we would love to visit again. On Foot were exceptionally helpful with advice, and even called us during our walk on Boxing day!! The walks of 12 kms were manageable, but the longest walk of 16kms was a bit too much for us townies, and we did get lost one day! Overall we had the most memorable holiday, and would definitely recommend an adventure like this.

On Foot Holidays were exceptionally helpful from the very first phone call I made to enquire about the possibility of a walking holiday in Andalucia over Christmas. They gave us excellent advice about the equipment we would need to enable us to walk comfortably, and we came home with all 20 toes intact and no blisters as a result! They organised everything we needed for a worry free holiday, with detailed information about travel, the walks, our contact in Andalucia, our hotels, even the bus times from Ronda to Malaga on our return journey. I highly recommend On Foot Holidays, we felt very well taken care of.

Superbly organised walking holiday

Self-guided walking holiday with baggage transfer between destinations in the Andalucian Sierras. We asked On-Foot to organise everything for us from the moment we got off the aeroplane - and they did! They made several suggestions to help us before the holiday and were at the end of a phone when we managed to get ourselves lost one day! Accommodation and walks were varied but all of an excellent standard. We felt we had a rounded experience ...

On-Foot give a personal service from the moment you contact them. We feel we know the staff personally and they know the details of the holidays we book and the information that is useful to us as travellers. They are willing to organise as little or as much as we ask them to. They even phone us up the week before we go to wish us a happy holiday and to ensure we have everything we need!
