Natural beauty and cozy comfort in the Yorkshire Dales
We walked the Yorkshire Dales and were submerged in jaw-dropping vistas and serene beauty. Our trails and paths led us through emerald green fields and over grassy moorlands where our only company were the sheep and cows grazing in the wild. Each night was spent at a cozy inn where we relaxed with a local ale and a cozy fire. An exceptional trip planned perfectly by our friends at On Foot Holidays.

Rating for tour operator:To work with On Foot Holidays is to experience the delight of a private concierge at the price of a group tour. Their attention to detail, the wealth of information they provide to set you up for the best possible experience, it all adds up to a flawless experience. To be able to experience something as individuals moving at your own pace, but have the support that OFH provides, is truly unique and valuable.
On Foot Holiday, Andalucia Spain
My husband and I had a wonderful 7 day walking experience walking the white villages of Andalucia, Spain. This was our second trip with OnFootHoliday (our 1st was to Cornwall, UK) and it was fantastic. The communication with the staff prior and during the trip was quick, thorough and easy. Sue, our contact while on the trip, was easy to connect with and she responded to our questions/inquiries quickly. The route was beautiful, serene and also ...
My husband and I had a wonderful 7 day walking experience walking the white villages of Andalucia, Spain. This was our second trip with OnFootHoliday (our 1st was to Cornwall, UK) and it was fantastic. The communication with the staff prior and during the trip was quick, thorough and easy. Sue, our contact while on the trip, was easy to connect with and she responded to our questions/inquiries quickly. The route was beautiful, serene and also challenging. Each village was unique, picturesque and truly reflected the history of that region of Spain. We walked through miles and miles of olive orchards on dirt paths with some occasional goats, cows or horses joining us on route. The terrain had a lot of elevation gain and we were glad we had hiking poles with us. The lodging was very comfortable and the hotel staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. Most of the lodging had swimming pools which we found refreshing after a long day of hiking. The OnFootHoliday app worked great. It notified us with a beeping sound when we went off the track and reassured us we were walking in the right direction when we were uncertain. We also appreciated having the printed out map and directions as back up. The restaurant recommendations and other information in the app were very helpful. Thank you OnFootHoliday for another memorable vacation. I am already dreaming of our next vacation with OnFootHoliday.
Rating for tour operator:Communication prior to booking, after we booked and while on our holiday was excellent. On Foot Holiday staff got back to us right in a timely manner and answered all of our questions. They booked our lodging and even made dinner reservations for us. The app was very helpful. Not only did it have a GPS that described our daily route, but it showed us where we were in real time and let us know when we had left the route. It provided information about each hotel we'd be staying in and helpful information about each village and information about the region. We felt supported by On Foot Holiday throughout the planning phase all the way through the end of our travels.
Great
Was all good the new app definitely helped make life easier to navigate. Only had a couple of days of rain but we were lucky with the walking as only rained on us once and not for long. Having extra days in the villages worked well as it helped us explore the areas more. The village and country people were all so very friendly and would go out of their way to have a chat with you.

Wonderful Basque Pyrenees Hike
The eight-day hike through the Basque Pyrenees was delightful. The trails and terrain were varied in difficulty and scenery, and the accommodations included some of the most comfortable and quaint we’ve stayed in on similar hikes. Notable, too, was the exceptional customer service from On Foot. We were assigned a local contact that provided immediate assistance when needed, let us know about weather conditions that might have affected our day’s ...

Notable, too, was the exceptional customer service from On Foot. We were assigned a local contact that provided immediate assistance when needed, let us know about weather conditions that might have affected our day’s hike, made dinner recommendations, and even suggested a route alteration when a storm was on the horizon so we wouldn’t miss out on what was billed as the most stunning portion of the trip.in addition to the local contact, the office staff provided on-the-ground support when we had a question about the GPS file for our trip. We’ve done self-guided trips with other companies and this one with On Foot ranked at the top.

'El Priorat - Along Monastery Trails To Holy Mountain'
A varied walk in the mountainous region of the Priorat in the Tarragona province of Catalonia. The region has an interesting history, from stone age through medieval to the present and including the development of the Priorat wine DOC. The accommodation was generally of a high standard and the hosts universally kind and helpful. The food and wine was consistently of a excellent standard. We particularly enjoyed the mix of fantastic walking, ...

Rating for tour operator:This is our first trip with On Foot Holidays which we were attracted to by the region which we had not seen offered elsewhere. We have been impressed by the efficiency, communication and responsiveness to our queries. The information pack was also among the best we have seen (we have done a significant number of walking and cycling holidays over the last 20 years) with detailed instructions, good maps, detailed information and excellent on the ground support.

Hiking the Lighthouse Way in Galicia, Spain was an awesome experience, especially with the services provided by On Foot Holidays
We are experienced Camino hikers and were looking for something quieter and more scenic. We learned of the Camino Dos Faros (Lighthouse Way) and On Foot Holidays through a magazine article. Our trip was everything we had hoped for, and more. OFH's local contact, app, accommodations, recommendations, and assistance along the way were wonderful in all respects. The hike itself, along the Galician coast, was very scenic, peaceful, and inspiring...

We've traveled with other tour operators, and OFH was head and shoulders better than others, and competitively priced as well.
