Reviews of Classic Slovenia
This was the fourth walking holiday my wife Judith and I have taken with On Foot and thay have all been marvellous.
We walked from near Ljubljana, Slovenia's capital, to Trieste in Italy over a period of 5 days, through changing scenery and wildflower meadows, taking in Predjama Castle, a gourmet dinner one evening, wine tasting one day en-route and one day visiting the Skocjan caves (all pre-arranged by On Foot). On Foot arrange a mix of hotels, B&Bs and farms to stay at, some providing dinners with their own home produced food and wine. We carry daypacks ...
We walked from near Ljubljana, Slovenia's capital, to Trieste in Italy over a period of 5 days, through changing scenery and wildflower meadows, taking in Predjama Castle, a gourmet dinner one evening, wine tasting one day en-route and one day visiting the Skocjan caves (all pre-arranged by On Foot). On Foot arrange a mix of hotels, B&Bs and farms to stay at, some providing dinners with their own home produced food and wine. We carry daypacks during the walks and On Foot arrange for our main luggage to be taken to the next place. We have never been disappointed (except for some iffy weather, which not even On Foot can control!) We are now thinking which of all the tempting routes available we should select for our fifth holiday with them.
Rating for tour operator:On Foot meticulously research each of their European holiday destinations; the walk itself, the local reps and the places you stay at. Really professional firm and nice people too. New routes are being added to their list of choices.

On foot holidays in slovenia
We had a wonderful time, we can't stop talking about it, one of the best holidays we have ever had,, we would class ourselves as dog walkers not hikers, so this was perfect for us, but just pushed us out our comfort zone. The route was like stepping back in time, vineyards,churches on gently rolling hills, and no hedges , just open wooded landscapes with no tourists. Our party of four expanded to six after meeting an Australian couple who ...
We had a wonderful time, we can't stop talking about it, one of the best holidays we have ever had,, we would class ourselves as dog walkers not hikers, so this was perfect for us, but just pushed us out our comfort zone. The route was like stepping back in time, vineyards,churches on gently rolling hills, and no hedges , just open wooded landscapes with no tourists. Our party of four expanded to six after meeting an Australian couple who had got lost,they weren't with on foot holidays! We generally arrived at 3,00 at our accommodation,and after a reviving glass or two of wine, rested before dinner, served early in the evening. Dinner was a highlight with good food good wine and good company, these were days to remember for rest of your life.
Rating for tour operator:Excellent in every possible way, they aren't tour operators, they are personal holiday organisers, nothing is too much trouble. The first morning we couldn't walk because of torrential rain, so were taken to some caves where we spent thee wonderous hours, ,the driver waited until we had finished and then took us back to the start of our walk, all part of the service.

Walk from Ljublijana to Trieste
A fabulous 6 days walking from Ljublijana in Slovenia to Trieste in Italy. Everything well organised by On Foot Holidays. Accommodation was of a good standard and the food was excellent. We found the Slovenian people very welcoming and helpful. Altogether a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

The peace and beauty of Slovenia at a perfect pace

From our initial booking through to the stress of having to cancel our walk for health reasons then re-booking we received nothing but outstanding, friendly & efficient service from all at On Foot Holidays. The route was well chosen and the notes precise and easy to follow as were the instructions on downloading the GPS software and using it. Our accommodation along the was exactly what we needed and our various hosts comments made it clear that On Foot staff were very familiar with both them and the route. We really appreciated the information supplied with regard to the route, countryside, hosts, local restaurants and sights. We've walked various long distance routes in a number of countries with different companies and On Foot Holidays tops the list. Thank you!
Rating for tour operator:We can't recommend On Foot Holidays enough: they are very knowledgeable with regards to the actual route, the accommodation hosts and their services and also with the various places of interest along the way. They pass on recommendations from their past clients for restaurants, etc. which proved helpful too. Their notes, maps & luggage transfer service are excellent - the best we've had on all walks we've done and, above all, everything was handled efficiently and in a caring, friendly manner. We can find no fault with their service and thoroughly recommend them.
Delightful walks through vineyards,woods and wildflower meadows with mountain views

Sublime Slovenia
This was an immaculately researched walking holiday in an area of agricultural time-warp where the fields and woods were ablaze with beautiful wildflowers and buzzing with life. The farms we stayed at were welcoming and comfortable and largely self-sufficient in delicious food and wines.

Rating for tour operator:I can't praise On Foot Holidays highly enough for their friendly and exceptionally knowledgeable service, the back up of their walk notes and phone app meant they were with us every step of the way!
