On Foot - Lighthouse Way Traveller Reviews

An enjoyable well organised coastal walk. Beautiful scenery fabulous beaches, dunes & forests. We love birdwatching which added to our overall experience especially at this time of year. Great to have the options to shorten the walks which we took most days. Accommodations were excellent, & the recommendations for eating out were very helpful. Aznar was a brilliant help, he organised taxis & dinner reservations. It was nice to know he was there if we needed help with anything.

This is our 4th walk with Onfoot holidays. They have always been so profesional & given us all the necessary information we required. Their tours are definitely good value from start to finish, & so well organised.

Walking holiday along the Lighthouse Way in Galicia. Very well organised, flawless service, great route and guidance materials and excellent accommodation.

On Foot Holidays were great. Extremely helpful and flexible, personal service and great organising and support.

We travelled with On Foot Holidays from Santiago to Finisterre. The views of the Atlantic and the deserted 2 km beaches were quite wonderful. We also experienced the energy and vibe of the Camino which has been extended to Finisterre. The accommodation was great especially the Youth Hostel in Muxia and the Lighthouse hotel at Finisterre.

We find the web site very useful in choosing the holiday, with filter options. Communication is always very efficient and the walking pack comprehensive. It is always good to know there is a local contact even if not required. This is our second holiday and we plan to use them again.

This was one of the most exhilarating holidays we have been on with Onfoot Holidays and we have been on many!! From the deserted white sandy beaches washed by Atlantic rollers to the boulder fields of strange rock formations into woodland filled with birdsong then onward to spectacular and exciting gorse covered cliff-side paths - The Lighthouse Way proved to be a wonderful experience. The variety of wild flowers in May provided a kaleidoscope of colours along the whole route and the helpful green wayside markets led us from lighthouse to lighthouse. The variety on the walk was matched too with the variety of accommodation, always of great quality, welcoming and of course with our luggage sitting in our rooms! We enjoyed meeting people from all over the world, crossing paths and briefly sharing the experience but ultimately we had the days to ourselves to enjoy the noise of the sea and the beauty of the landscape. Our route led us finally to the “end of the world” at Cape Finisterre. What a wonderful climax to the holiday and a beautiful place to stay and see the sunset at the end of a fantastic walking holiday.

Onfoot holidays have proved themselves to be a wonderful tour operator, providing a highly organised and yet personal service every time. The routes are interesting and well planned ( we love to still do it the old fashioned way and use the excellent written notes and maps with a bit of GPS thrown in if necessary)the accommodation always of great quality, sometimes quirky and extremely welcoming. (We relish being off the tourist routes and enjoying the hospitality of our hosts and the challenge and fun of communicating when English is not always spoken.) The information we get in advance and the support of a local representative mean that we have no trouble understanding the local area and get to eat in some fabulous cafes/ restaurants. Nothing is ever too much trouble and all the people we meet along the way (from taxi drivers to the accommodation hosts) obviously have a great working relationship with the team at Onfoot - who will at sometime and in some combination have walked the walk and talked the talk!!! We know we can certainly book with confidence and know we’ll be well looked after and have fun! The freedom of walking on our own with the confidence of a warm welcome, eating well and a good nights sleep at the end of the day makes this a truly relaxing holiday - an annual therapy that we just keep coming back to!! Many thanks to the team at Onfoot for making it possible!!

We walked as a group of 4 for six days along the Lighthouse Way in Galicia. The seascapes were breathtaking. We met only a handful of other walkers which intensified the beautiful isolation of some the locations. The local people were extremely welcoming and our accommodation was excellent throughout the week.

We have used On Foot several times and they have never failed to organise a truly memorable holiday for us. On Foot provide absolutely everything we need right from the moment we contact them to arrange our next walk. We are always so impressed with the superb standard of accommodation they manage to secure for us. Nothing is too much trouble for them and whenever we contact them, we are treated with patience, warmth and often humour. On Foot always provide us with a local contact to turn to if advice is needed or problems arise. This time, our contact regularly checked to see that everything was going smoothly. We always feel the success of our holiday is as important to On Foot as it is to us.

In the past I have backpacked all of my gear on adventures. This was awesome - our bags were reliably transferred daily. The daily hikes offered variations which enabled us to shorten some days to relax and enjoy the small towns when we preferred. The scenery was breathtaking. Each days sights varied from the previous. Meals were delicious and accommodation selections couldn't have been more comfortable.

On Foot staff went above and beyond in accommodation recommendations. As we initially booked our trip just prior to Covid we did have to rebook more than once. Staff were always helpful with suggestions, responded promptly to questions and were encouraging when it came to figuring out the GPS tracking system. I would not hesitate to book another adventure with On Foot and their staff.

Great walking experience along the Galician coast - exceptionally well organized, lovely overnight stays, enjoyable Galician meals. When we encountered weather challenges in our late October excursion, our fabulous local contact, Aznar, helped us adapt our daily schedule to avoid the worst weather and enjoy the best routes along this gorgeous, wild coast.. We will definitely book again with On Foot - onward to 2023!

On Foot was tremendously helpful and responsive to our planning queries and provided useful, highly detailed trip information in advance of our trip. Local trip support was exceptional. At every point of the way, we had sufficient information about route specifics, contact details, local accommodations, etc. Very impressed with On Foot, will definitely book again,

Really spectacular walking trails on (mostly) coastal paths, with plenty variety and beautiful hotels to relax in overnight, before setting off again, averaging 13 miles daily. Glorious weather and scenery.

On Foot Holidays provided all the info and back up required to make us feel confident about walking in a foreign country. The level of information provided was more than we could have asked for; and on-the-ground help (should we have needed it) was excellent too.

A wonderful trip along the northwest Spanish coast from lighthouse to lighthouse. We found the scenery to be wonderful, the trails generally well marked and gorgeous at every stop, and the logistics like hotels and restaurants all very well planned.

On foot holidays helped us plan our trip, only to have it canceled by COVID-19. We redid the trip along those same specifications and they helped us once again. We found them personable and very responsive.

Coordinated through onfootholidays... did the Camino du Faro with 4 friends. 6 days of walking/hiking along the spectacular Galacia Coast. The diversity kept it fresh. And the care of onfootholidays made it easy and worry free.

Onfootholidays... responsive, thorough. All our accomodations were lovely. Our hosts friendly and helpful. The local contact available and helpful. All was wonderful
