We have just returned from a wonderful walking trip to the Basque Country, starting in the very rural interior and walking down to the coast at Hondarribia and then San Sebastián. For the first few days, walking through incredibly beautiful countryside, we hardly saw a soul and we loved how every day was completely different. While the route was challenging for pensioner knees, the terrain was mainly very good underfoot, so no scrambling, and the views were absolutely worth the effort. We came home with a real sense of achievement and a commitment to tackle one of On Foot’s other Spanish routes.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
Having just done our second trip with On Foot Holidays, we honestly can’t rate them highly enough. On Foot has a seriously impressive commitment to customer care and attention to detail and this shows through in every aspect of the holidays that they create. From the time and advice given to us when we were trying to decide which route to choose, to the pre-holiday information and in-country support, we absolutely knew we were in safe hands. On Foot helped us to tailor the trip with a few extra nights in some locations and, as in our previous trip to the Amalfi Coast, all of the accommodation was fantastic - even in the most rural of locations. So nice to be able to hand that over to On Foot completely and just turning up to find your luggage installed in your room. It was also wonderful having the in-country support from On Foot’s local contact who was able to help us with shortening options on a couple of days as well as providing timely advice on places to eat. It was great knowing that there was someone on the end of WhatsApp should we have had any problems along the way. Absolutely brilliant!!

This was a wonderful holiday in every way: fine scenery, varied walks, excellent accommodation, and friendly people. A particular treat for us was the tremendous profusion and variety of wild flowers in early June. We had wondered whether language would be a problem, but there was never any difficulty.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
We have had many On Foot holidays and have always found them to be reliably excellent. The routes and accommodation are well chosen, the notes and maps (and now an app as well) providing all the help required. There is a choice of walks on some days and shortening options if needed. They also provide a wealth of interesting background information. Communication is always prompt, helpful and friendly.

On Foot Holidays, my fourth holiday. The routes are well planned to enjoy amazing views along quiet footpaths, the family run accommodation is interesting and varied, each with a personal touch. Information about the route includes eating out suggestions and points of interest is always most useful. The customer service from the whole team at On Foot continues to be exemplary.

We throughly enjoyed our hike through the Cotswolds. The scenery was breathtaking and the accommodations were fantastic. The new app that Onfoot has for their hiking routes was easy to use and very informative. Our local contact, Nicki went upon and beyond for us. She would check-in with us on a regular basis. Would I do another walking tour with Onfoot? You bet. I have already started looking at their other routes for a future trip.

Onfoot was always quick to response to any questions we had about the trip. We would get a response within a day from them. They are very organized and hire some great guides.

We walked from the mountains to the sea. The route was well planned, the app gave us lots of interesting information about the villages, monuments, flowers and trees that we saw. The accommodation was well chosen, with charming and helpful hosts. The walking was fairly hard with some steep climbs so we were glad not to be carrying heavy rucksacks. The tour operator obviously knew both the accommodation hosts well and the walking route itself and it was good to have some alternative route options for some of the days.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
On Foot Holidays were very impressive, everyone we spoke to knew about our route, were always friendly and patient. The details were thought through, accommodation and food well planned. The app was excellent and we appreciated the final “good luck“ email and the availability of a local contact.

Vikos Gorge Holiday: This holiday was the clear highlight of our Greece holidays. The walking was excellent. At the guesthouse in Kapesovo with had our two best dinners of our whole holiday, thank you Joanna! In Monodendri we enjoyed the local Dionysos restaurant and Papingo is beautiful with good eating options. And note the Hotel Saxonis can arrange a 4x4 transfer to the Refuge, allowing the walk to Dragon Lake and return to Papingo to become a comfortable day’s walk. We will be recommending to our friends to visit the Vikos Gorge. My sister-in-law who travelled around Greece last year has already booked to return to Greece this year, just to visit the Vikos Gorge.

A very well organised self-guided walking holiday passing through some lovely small villages between Ljubljana and Trieste. Well chosen accommodation, superb route guidance via a dedicated app and very well selected trails. With the wealth of information available on-line these days it is often possible for more experienced hikers to plan their own routes and accommodation so it's important for a tour operator to add value over what could otherwise be achieved independently. In this case I can honestly say On Foot Holidays did indeed add value as there was no way we'd have been able to do the level of detailed route planning or select a similar type and standard of accommodation ourselves without the degree of local knowledge the company offered. The whole experience was hassle-free. All we had to do was walk!
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
We chose On Foot Holidays because they offered a small range of well-selected self-guided tours in places a little more "off the beaten track" and they responded to our web enquiry immediately, keeping up a good level of communication through the booking process. Available reviews were also positive. From start to finish On Foot provided just the right level of support and in particular the App for navigation with it's detailed additional information about the points of interest and places to eat was really useful.

Our holiday walking at our own pace in the Alpes Maritime, was done with the comfort that everything was organised for us to the nth degree. We had an App and printed walking materials, a local guide at the end of the phone, our luggage moved on to excellent accommodation. The company, On Foot Holidays, have excellent communication practices and ensured we were aware of anything essential.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
We have used On Foot Holidays a few times and the thing they have above other holiday operators of a similar nature is their communication is definitely top. They ensure that you are aware of anything that might cross your mind and react very quickly to any questions/queries you might have. During Covid they were excellent in dealing with our cancelled holiday and could not be faulted on their procedures.

This trip more than delivered on expectations. An undiscovered area of Northern Portugal that feels truly authentic. Fabulous scenery walking through forests and valleys, with far reaching views across the country side. Some outstanding accommodation and just lovely people looking after us all the way. The Roman road on the route to Campo Geres was a real highlight. Our group of eight voted it our best On Foot trip so far.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
As always On Foot delivered and more on our expectations. Great in house attention to meet all the varied needs of our group of 8 and a delightful group of helpers in Portugal who looked after us on the ground.

A great hotel to hotel walking holiday through absolutely stunning mountains. I’ve walked in the Himalayas, Andes and Rockies and this walk was more than comparable in terms of views. Slovenian hospitality is genuinely warm and welcoming and the accommodation I experienced excellent. The availability of an English speaking local to answer all those idiotic questions was very helpful especially as I was walking alone. Highly recommended.

This was a seven day walking holiday in the Julian Alps and the Karawanks mountain range, starting in the alpine village of Kranjska Gora and ending in Bled. The scenery is magnificent, and the walks themselves offer varying levels of difficulty, with shortening options if desired.. This was one of our most enjoyable walking holidays.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
This was our fourth long-distance walk with On Foot Holidays. We know we can count on them for well-designed routes, excellent walking directions (on paper and in a companion app), local support, comfortable accommodations, and meticulous organization of things like luggage transfers, packed lunches, and useful suggestions for local restaurants. The office staff respond quickly to enquiries and are very effective in making the right things happen.
