Andalucia Traveller Reviews

Working with On Foot Holidays, my family (myself, my wife, our 2 adult daughters and my son-in-law) hiked in the area of the Grazalema National Park in Andalucia, Spain.

On Foot Holidays made all of the arrangements, including accommodations, walking directions, some of the meals, and some ground transportation. They were exceptionally well-organized and helpful, and a pleasure to deal with.

We just finished a 6-day independent hike in Andalucia Spain supported by On Foot Holidays. They arranged our lodging, gave us detailed trail descriptions including a GPS file to help us navigate, and moved our luggage from inn to inn. The inns were all very comfortable and all of the logistics of our trip were handled without any problems.

We are already looking for another hiking trip sponsored by On Foot Holidays. The attention we got before the trip and the arrangements they made for our lodging, breakfasts, lunches, and luggage transfer were flawless.

6 of us walked from zahara to Ronda . All accommodation excellent but especially in zahara , los todeos . Walks easy to understand . Can’t fault on foot holidays everything went to plan . Will book again .

Independent walking holiday specialist

We walked in Andalusia, between some of the Pueblos Blancos, or white villages This holiday provided us with a great opportunity to experience the countryside and learn about the area's flora and fauna. We hiked through groves of cork oaks, passed through pastures of cows and black pigs and watched griffon vultures soar overhead. Our information package and walking instructions were very clear. The walking instructions were very clear and helpful, and the package of information provided us with interesting notes of the trip.

On Foot Holidays responded promptly to our initial inquiry, and from that point on, gave us detailed information and supported our trip planning. We were impressed that they have someone in the area we were planning to hike, whose role it is to review the trail and ensure that instructions were still accurate. This contact was also available if were to have difficulties, which was reassuring.

Our self guided walk took us between white villages in Andalucia. On Foit organised our accommodation, supplied all the walking notes required for each day's journey. We walked an average of approx 14km a day. Our luggage was carried to that nights accommodation so we were only required to take a small day pack with our provided lunch etc. The walking had us walking through some farmland,, cork forests and very isolated valleys and limestones mountains. Our accommodation in each of the villages was always good with welcoming friendly hosts. One in particular stands out and that was La Mejorana in Grazalema. Our host here was excellent. The walking days were always interesting,, usually very isolated. The notes On Foot provide give information on the history of the area plus interesting facts on flora and fauna. This year we had a couple of wet days, this is something that you just have to accept when doing a walking holiday. On the warm sunny days the walking was wonderful. We loved the experience of arriving at our white village destination with the beautiful plazas, narrow cobbled streets and little cafes, bars. We would always end our walking day enjoying a beer or a local wine. Just wonderful.

This was the 4th holiday using On Foit Holidays. I find them an excellent company to deal with. Any correspondence is answered immediately, they offer excellent advice and their attention to detail with the walking notes cannot be faulted. Their website showing all their different walks is also very professional, easy to use with good information and provides the pricing It was the quality of their website that drew me to use them on my first walk 4 years ago. Each walk has different options depending on the time you have available. When on the walk itself there is usually an option for reducing the total amount of walking if that's needed. This year we also took the option of downloading a GPS app which helped in times when we were a little unsure of which direction we should be going.. This was very helpful in the rain. I will be using On Foot again on our next walking holiday.

On foot Holidays customized a shorter version of their Andalucia - While villages of the Ronda Mountains tours to three days and four nights over New Years. We had superb weather and everything went very smoothly. It was challenging, but we were prepared for this. The scenery was absolutely over the top! An absolutely fabulous adventure.

On foot Holidays not only customized the walk for us, but were also extremely helpful with logistics before and after our walk. They quickly and thoroughly responded to all my requests and followed up with additional information as it became available without my asking. Initially, I thought they had provided more information than I could digest or was needed prior to the trip, but every bit of it was useful and by the end it seemed appropriate. By the way, I tried to upload a few photos but was not able to.

Some of the most gorgeous scenery we've ever seen. Everything was perfect!

Super responsive to every question we had, our accommodations were all excellent, the route and the directions were perfect. On Foot is a top notch organization with exceptional staff. We will be using them again soon for sure!

We loved our off the grid Andalucian hiking holiday. Really couldn't fault it. The organisation was top-knotch and the accommodation was better than we'd expected. The scenery was gorgeous and we pretty much never saw another soul for the entire 8 days - exactly what we'd hoped for, and would definitely sign on for another one!

On Foot were great from start to finish. Efficient, good communication, friendly and helpful.
