I have just finished two back to back walking holidays in three of the less visited Greek Islands, Andros, Naxos, and Amorgos. On each of the three islands we were based in a small town and the walks either took off from the towns directly or were accessed with a local taxi service, which allowed us to experience a diversity of walking venues, and I saw many remote places that I never would have been able to find on my own. I consider myself most fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience the physical and cultural geography of these three islands which remain almost completely unadulterated by 21st century mass tourism.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
Over the past ten years I have done similar walking trips with five other companies, and I consider On Foot to be in a class of its own. The plan of each of the walks I have taken with On Foot has been carefully thought out in conjunction with knowledgeable local people to take the best advantage of the physical and cultural resources of the area, and there has always been a local support person who has been genuinely committed to looking after walkers' needs. The people in the home office have been very conscientious about keeping track of clients' potential logistical problems, and I particularly appreciated their help in helping to unravel the mysteries of Greek ferry schedules.

We had a lovely walk through the Dordogne region of France through OnFootHolidays. The walking had plenty of opportunities to stride out but also had some challenging areas. It turned out that April was a perfect time to walk as the temperatures were cool in the morning and the sun was warm in the afternoon. We saw incredible spring flowering trees, wildflowers, iris and wisteria.

We loved our hiking holiday on the Amalfi Coast! The hiking was challenging at times, but with the spectacular views, it was worth it.

Would do it all again if we could!

5 days walking point in the wild Ronda mountains in Andalucia with vultures circulating high overhead. Each night resting in a comfortable hotel in one of the beautiful white villages in Grazalema National Park. Finishing in the historic town of Ronda perched high on the hill top looking back at where we had walked.

On Foot Holidays provide a friendly personal service, with well planned routes, and an excellent choice of family style hotels. Nothing is too much trouble; from last minute walking suggestions from their local expert in the area, to booking taxis, or organising dinner. We have used On Foot Holidays many times and would highly recommend them for the complete self guided walking holiday.

I just returned from Mallorca which was absolutely stunning. The walks were gorgeous and just right. Most often I took the shorter and easier option and never felt as if I missed out on anything. The accommodations were perfect. The food was delicious! I followed OFH's 'Where to Dine Out 'guide and was never let astray.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
OFH's new App worked seamlessly and had a lot of extra detail with pictures to boot. As a solo walker it is tremendously comforting to have such a well designed App as well as hard copy materials for easier perusal. This is my third walk with OFH and they all have been excellent. The level of detail, support and information is exceptional. The walks are carefully thought out and the accomodations could not have been better.

Our route was 8 fantastic days walking along the gorges of southern Galicia this April. It was stunningly beautiful and a unique experience. We walked through wondeful woodland and across the top of the gorges to beautiful little towns and villages, old monasteries and even an ancient castle walls. Everywhere we stayed our hosts and all the local restaurants were very friendly and provided super accommodation, and even better food. We didn't even mind the odd wet day. Its an unknown gem of a walk.
Rating for On Foot Holidays:
Onfoot are just superb. There's no better Operator to walk with in Europe. They provide a tailored service, unique walks and really special accommodations that you just don't get anywhere else. We've walked with them over the last few years, and you don't need to ask if we'd recommend them, as we do it all the time and sime of our friends are already enjoying their walks. Weve tried other operators for routes onfoot dont do, and the just don't meet the same standards. The team are kind, considerate and attentive. We can't recommend them enough.

The unique scenery, vegetation and geology on La Gomera, the reliable climate and the surprisingly good food and wine made this a holiday that more than lived up to our expectations . We were nervous, initially, about the terrain, barely a flat surface, but got into the stride - quite literally and found the walking quite manageable and immensely rewarding. Every valley was different and there were surprises around every corner as each view opened up. And a lot of space for a small island, other hikers came and went but we felt as though we had the place to ourselves much of the time. Thoroughly recommended.

Arranged a short notice - fancied a few days walking in the sun. On Foot Holidays suggested La Gomera, which suited our needs perfectly. The self-guided tour was tailored to our preferences in terms of daily distance and type of accommodation en route. Perfect weather helped (sun, mid-teens and slight breeze)......... We have taken several holidays with On Foot in various locations - this was one of the best yet.
