On Foot - Lighthouse Way Traveller Reviews

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.

It was wonderful. The coast was beautiful and the accommodations were great. It was self guided and the maps and descriptions were spot on.

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.

Un be lie va blé, I am already planning my next vacation with on foot holidays. The experience was everything i expected and more. jude

Aznar was awesome, he was on top of all aspects of the trip.

Everything about this six day hiking/walking holiday was superb. It is hard to imagine how it could have been better. We are still glowing! The weather was great, the scenery was fabulous, and the walks themselves were wonderful. The logistics were simply impeccable...everything worked exactly as it was supposed to. Our local contact was helpful and responsive. Taxis turned up on time to pick us up and deliver us back to the airport upon arrival and departure, and also on those days when we wanted to shorten the walk by a bit. The hotels varied in style...some were simpler than others...but all were great. The walking directions (extremely detailed), the maps (the envy of other walkers we encountered), and the GPS app (we used this to find ourselves a couple of times when we strayed off the path) were all very accurate and very helpful. A beautiful holiday, brilliantly planned and executed.

On Foot Holidays was simply brilliant from start to finish. They were helpful and responsive at all times, and everything worked exactly as it was supposed to. No detail was overlooked, and everything was done perfectly. 5 stars.

Our experience with the Lighthouse Way walk organized by On Foot Holidays was truly superb! The route itself was amazing, the accommodations surpassed our expectations, the luggage transfers were flawless and the taxi rides to and from the route were perfectly on time. We had absolutely no problems during our walk, and the in-country contact working with On Foot Holidays was in frequent touch with us to answer questions and provide suggestions. Overall, we could not have wished for a more perfect walking holiday!

We can't speak highly enough about our email interaction with the On Foot Holidays staff. All of our queries were answered very cordially and within a remarkably short time (often within hours). It was clear that everyone we worked with would go to any length to make this trip meet our individual needs. The printed materials describing the trip arrived in our mailbox in a timely fashion and were extremely detailed, with high quality maps, route notes and background information. We have worked with three other tour operators on similar outdoor adventure trips, and On Foot Holidays was clearly the best among these.
