On Foot Holidays - Bohemia Traveller Reviews

Our trek of five days through Czech Republic's Bohemian Paradise provided us with an almost mystical experience. From cathedral forests and majestic sandstone rock formations to fairytale castles and chapels perched high on hilltops, the walking holiday allowed us to experience a part of the country that not too many visitors from outside of the country ever see. At the end of the walk, we wanted to visit Prague, and On Foot also took care of reserving our hotel room in this beautiful city.

This trip was our third with On Foot. We remain impressed with their meticulous attention to detail, their prompt response to questions, and their sense of humour, an added bonus. We plan on travelling with them again.

We walked five days while On Foot Holidays arranged accommodation and luggage transfers. We averaged around 16 kilometers each day, with some longer and some shorter. Each day had various historical and/or geological highlights to explore in addition to the walking.

The information and logistics that On Foot Holidays provided were stunning in their detail, completeness, accuracy, and usability. Literally every single detail that On Foot touched worked perfectly. Given the overwhelming amount of information and hiking instruction involved (pages and pages), their success at 100% accuracy is astounding. Every directional detail was spot-on, and with the Pocket Earth app as an easy-to-use backup, we hiked our way through our days without error or concern. Beyond the scope of the hiking details, we also found the information about restaurants and points of interest accurate and very useful. Our local contact was also reliable and very useful. Again, to have that many logistical details fall together so perfectly, well, I wouldn’t have thought that possible. On Foot was amazing!

The holiday was very well organised and we were comforted in knowing that every little thing had been thought of and prepared for. The walks were developed to be more of an adventure than just a way to get from A to B and we discovered the real country and its history.

Excellent communication from first contact in 2020 to actual travel post Covid in 2023. All communication was speedy and clear and we felt all aspects had been considered by them for our enjoyment, safety and well-being.

It was a hotel-to-hotel walking holiday in the Czech Republic to which we added on a couple of additional days in Prague. On Foot provided the maps and walking instructions, arranged the transport of our luggage and taxis to and from the airport. The walking was in a rugged, remote, unspoilt part of Bohemia and we loved it.

The communication with the company before, during and after was excellent, we loved all the different hotels we stayed in (variety of levels), and the maps and walking instructions were excellent. We enjoyed every day of the holiday, have travelled with this company before, and will be doing so again. Everything was as expected - the company provide a lot of information about the walking routes, walking specifics (difficulty, altitudes, distances, timing etc), and where you stay beforehand so you can choose exactly wahat you want and get what you expect - weather aside!

We completed a 6 day hike from Turnov to Jicin visiting 5 castles and walking through beautify forests and countryside and then spent 2 days in Prague. The hike was between 14 and 22 KM each day on a variety of paths. There was a great variety of accomodations along the way, especially in Prague, with our tour operator organizing our luggage from one location to the other.

Very responsive to questions and requests for additional help before and during the tour. The information packages were very useful and provided accurate digital as well as written instructions. We especially liked the varied types of accomodations that seemed to reflect the varied nature of the locations.

Really great walking holiday from On Foot Holidays. Good accommodation, well planned routes, excellent maps and directions.

We have had several holidays with On Foot and we really appreciate the personal service provided by their friendly staff. They know the walks well and have led us to areas we would never otherwise have discovered.

Aptly named ‘Bohemian Paradise’ is beautiful landscape with spectacular rock towns. Excellent itinerary giving good walking while allowing the time to enjoy the scenery and providing shortening options. All hotels were comfortable and of a very good standard.

This is our sixth On Foot holiday. As usual the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and accommodating. They responded very quickly. Route notes, maps and GPS were sent beforehand which along with details from their local support prepared us well for our trip. Highly recommended.

This area of the Czech Republic is beautiful, and the hiking routes selected by On Foot Holidays were the right level of getting a good workout but also overall ease of walking and enjoying the surroundings. And I greatly appreciated that most of the walking was in shade. The nightly accommodations selected were also great.

Very responsive and supportive. And of course knowledgeable about the routes walked and excellent suggestions on where to stay pre- or post-trip if so desired.

A beautiful 6 day hiking trip through Czech Republic and 5 days in Prague

Attentive, quick to respond to questions, always have helpful advice. It's good to know they are there if you need them.

5 days walking through the sandstone 'rock towns' of the Cesky Raj in North East Czechia. We only discovered this as we were attending a wedding in the country and so looked for a suitable holiday to go with this. As soon as we found an On Foot holiday in the area we were delighted to sign up.

We have used On Foot Holidays for 3 different walking holidays so far and we have enjoyed all three and the fact that we have not needed to contact them during the holiday suggests they know what they are doing. We will be using them again.
