Catalonia: El Priorat by Gill, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Independent walking tour of the Priorat region

The walk took us from the Cisterican monastery of Poblet through the mountains of Prades and into the heart of the Priorat wine region. We stayed in small hotels, guesthouses and a rural Mas (farmhouse) with ecologically minded owners. We loved the region and the variety of scenery on our walk, as well as the genuinely friendly and hospitable locals along the way.

The walk took us from the Cisterican monastery of Poblet through the mountains of Prades and into the heart of the Priorat wine region. We stayed in small hotels, guesthouses and a rural Mas (farmhouse) with ecologically minded owners. We loved the region and the variety of scenery on our walk, as well as the genuinely friendly and hospitable locals along the way. The walk was challenging enough to feel worthwhile without being overwhelming or exhausting and there were often options for shortening the day if desired. We enjoyed varied Catalan cuisine along the way.

I had not used On Foot before and from start to finish I was impressed by the level of service. Debbie was very friendly when I rang to discuss the trip with her and she was helpful about arranging a change to the transport at the end. The package of maps, walking notes and information about the region was excellent; I have done similar walks with other companies and these were easily the best. Debbie rang before we left to check we had everything we needed and Joanna, who had written the notes, was available to us locally if needed. Our bags were moved on each day and everything went smoothly. I would certainly recommend this as an excellent holiday.

Amalfi Coast with On Foot by Old friends, 5 Nov 2013
Holiday Rating:

Unforgettably wonderful

Two couples--old friends--hiked the Amalfi Coast of Italy for six days, spending nights in Amalfi, Praiano, Positano, and Sorrento. It was challenging but we all made it without incident and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves--not to mention being proud of our accomplishment. The weather was perfect, scenery breathtaking and varied, hill and seaside towns charming, hotels and breakfasts beyond expectations. We also took side trips to Rome, Pompeii, ...

It was challenging but we all made it without incident and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves--not to mention being proud of our accomplishment. The weather was perfect, scenery breathtaking and varied, hill and seaside towns charming, hotels and breakfasts beyond expectations. We also took side trips to Rome, Pompeii, and Capri. Everything went off without a hitch.

The folks at On Foot Holidays couldn't have been nicer, more patient with questions, or more helpful. They arranged for all our lodging (including our extra nights in Rome), had our luggage transported, and gave us a wealth of information, including detailed directions to keep us on the right path. They responded immediately to emails, called us to talk over details, and passed our requests along to the hotel staff. Every phase of the trip went unbelievably smoothly. We couldn't have been more pleased and are already talking about where we want to go next with On Foot.

Walking across the Istrian peninsula

We walked from Motovun to Moscenicka Draga, with our luggage being transferred between accommodation booked by our operator. We walked on our own through gorgeous scenery, following directions provided.

The staff at On foot holidays was were excellent in working with me via email to plan and customize our trip. They were quite helpful in their suggestions and recommendations. The packet of information sent well in advance was thorough and the narrative and maps were excellent. It was just the two of us, and we were well prepared.
