We had great weather, and loved the views of vineyards and rocky hills. Each place we stopped for the night was charming in its own way. The food was really good too.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

On Foot Holidays gave us great information before we started. We had maps and directions printed out, but the app was the most useful tool for us. The local contact was very helpful when we had questions or a change in timing for pick up. Overall the best tour operator we have used.

Our 6 days of walking along the Cilento coast and in the nearby hills were a total delight. We loved being there in the off season (mid-April); for us, the lack of tourists more than made up for the lack of open restaurants and shops. The walks themselves were lovely, and the people we met along the way incredibly warm and welcoming. One hot afternoon, a couple in a small village where nothing was open brought us two cold beers from their house. Another day, a woman walked down the road to offer us a cup of coffee while we were eating our picnic lunch! Our accommodations and hosts were great, and we ate lots of good food. A day at Paestum at the start of the trip was a wonderful addition, as was an extra day of pure relaxation at the end in Acciaroli.

It was a self guided hiking holiday over 8 days. The walking was quite tough at times but the scenery was spectacular and I've never seen so many wild flowers. We didn't use the app. but only the maps and notes provided by On Foot. These were excellent and very detailed. Also, the paths were generally well marked so navigation was not a problem. We were given a local contact number and Aznar, the contact, was in touch daily to check everything was OK. One day he had to find an alternative route because of a landslide on the original one, something he managed very efficiently by sending us photos, instructions and a map of the new route.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

The information we received before the holiday was excellent with clear A4 maps and detailed instructions for each day's walk. We really appreciated this as we don't use technology for navigation. Any questions we had were dealt with quickly and efficiently. The local contact on La Gomera was also excellent and gave us peace of mind in case of emergencies. I was also able to discuss the route with a very knowledgeable member of staff who had actually walked the route, which I found extremely helpful. Overall, I cannot fault On Foot on any aspect of their organisation. This is one of the best companies I've ever dealt with for hiking holidays.

We were looking for a more remote Greek island experience, removed from the tourist hot spots. We found our answer on Andros, a small and rich destination. The warmth of the locals, the charm of the lodgings, the beauty of the landscape and the richness of the culture combined to make this a fulfilling trip, with huge thanks to On Foot Holidays.

From start to finish, On Foot Holidays has always had our backs. We have now gone on 18 of their walking tours, and they continue to impress us with their quick and friendly responses to all our needs. They provide thorough and useful background information and their App is extremely user-friendly and helpful. As long as we can walk, we'll continue to book trips with On Foot Holidays!

This was a six-day walking holiday, starting in Castell de Castells and finishing in Denia, We also had an extra day in Denia after completing the walk to visit the castle, to spend some time on the beach and to sample some of the excellent restaurants and tapas bars in the town. The walk took us through some beautiful, varied countryside with lovely views, and the weather was perfect - warm, dry and sunny throughout. All the accommodation was very comfortable, our hosts were very welcoming, and we enjoyed lovely food and wine each day.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

This was our ninth trip with On Foot Holidays, and as always everything was dealt with very efficiently and promptly from our initial booking enquiry onwards. The walks were lovely, the accommodation arranged was excellent and the private transfers to and from Valencia airport and our various luggage transfers during the walk all went seamlessly. We used On Foot Holidays Companion App on the walk, which worked perfectly, and with the GPS tracking gave us the reassurance that we wouldn't stray off the path. On Foot's local contact was also proactive in keeping in touch with us a few times throughout the walk to make sure that all was going well. On Foot have an excellent working relationship with their local contacts and accommodation providers, which in turn reflects on how smoothly everything goes during the holiday. The fact that we've done so many trips with On Foot speaks volumes about how highly we rate them, and we will certainly be booking another holiday with them over the coming months.

We started our self-guided walk in Amalfi. We were soon out of the hustle and bustle of Amalfi tourists, on the loop walks in the area, including the Ravello loop, Valley of the Mills, Torre dello Ziro and Valle delle Ferriere. They are reasonable arduous walks with thousands of steps however, you are rewarded with magnificent vistas of the Amalfi/Atrani coastline, and no tourists! Subsequent days of the walk provides for stunning coastline and hilltop views in Praiano, Positano and Sant Agata. All restful overnight stops provides great accommodation and a chance to sample the fine local cuisine. The 2 night stop in Sant Agata is so worth the time to explore a little of the Sorrento peninsular. The whole 9-night walk holiday was stunning and we were so well looked after by the hotel hosts. Our luggage arrived at each stop-over and all arrangements happened seamlessly.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

As above, all tour/walk arrangements happened without fuss or confusion. Hotel accommodation, breakfasts, luggage transfers all occurred without issues. Our holiday arrangements prior to the trip were handled professionally and very well, even though we had basically cancelled the trip (due to the Iran conflict), then re-booked it all within a month of commencement.

This holiday provided six full days of walking in the hinterland of the Costa Brava. The trail started in rugged mountains and passed through agricultural land and charming villages en route to the flat coastal plain approaching Dénia. A couple of days offered optional routes, giving one a choice of distance and cumulative ascent. The trail was generally easy underfoot, with a mixture of open scrubland, forested paths, and a few short sections on quiet roads. The views are majestic.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

This was our third walk with On Foot Holidays, and we have a fourth walk booked with them for later this year. Office staff are knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. We have complete confidence in their ability to organize and support an enjoyable and rewarding walk, and we know they will choose comfortable accommodations along the way. Their turn-by-turn walking instructions are excellent and their companion app is easy to use. One other thing that we value with On Foot: they have a local representative for each walk. We have found them easy to contact, quick to respond, and very helpful in situations such as rail disruptions or adverse weather.

As the byline for the holiday stated La Gomera is a 'Magical Island of Eternal Spring', and it is certainly the perfect antidote to a chilly and damp January the UK. The walking is excellent with good quality paths, in an ever changing landscape which ranged from semi-desert by the sea, to the cloud forest around the peak of the island. Some of the walking is quite tough going if one avoids all suggested shortcuts, as the climbs can be long and steep, but it is very rewarding. All in all an excellent week away.

Rating for On Foot Holidays:

All worked very smoothly, as usual with On Foot, and all we had to worry about was the walking and eating, both of which were excellent. All dealings with the office were faultless, whilst the local contact was only a message away if advice was needed whilst we were in La Gomera.

Peaceful trails, gorgeous weather, trails gaining and then descending through autumn color mixed with firs/pines to the end of grassy summer at river's edge. Hiking at the end of season provided us with solitude, easy times with innkeepers and good distances each day.

So very communicative - quick to respond and to accommodate. Arrangements for lodging and luggage transfer were flawless. Itinerary was thorough and easily understood. The route has been thoroughly visited and re-visited by a local representative not only establishing detailed hiking directions but making valued relationships with innkeepers. The On Foot app for our hike too proved flawless.
