We were on a family trip with adult kids and all agreed it was a fantastic trip. We had outstanding guides, Louis and Sophie, who were great communicators, flexible and fun while still keeping us on track. They made it an enjoyable trip all around. Accommodations were great, good food, beautiful views from the hotels. Alpenwild is well organized, had good communication with us from the moment we signed up. Loved the Vamoos app that had all the trip information in one place. Highly recommend this trip and our guides!

What an exceptional experience! Really people, 10/10.

Hiking the Haute Route with Alpenwild is easily the best way to do it.

The Haute Route is a challenge and the last thing that you want to be concerned about is the details of having to do more than just enjoy the hiking.

Enter Alpenwild! These guys do everything for you, and do it startlingly well! Great guides, great accommodation, great food, great planning - it all adds up to a great experience!

Will definitely use Alpenwild for future trips!

My wife and I did the Deluxe Tour du Mont Blanc trip expertly guided by Jen and Em. I can't say enough good things about the whole experience. Alpenwild was well organized, provided all information in an easy to use app, and took good care of us. The best, I think, of the outfitters running this tour due to their experience and concentration on the Alps.
Jen and Em were calm, organized, and supremely over-qualified to lead the tour. They did an excellent job made the trip fun and relaxing. We were very luck to have them. Highly recommend!! Go now and book immediately.

Absolutely loved this tour! Alpenwild was organized and professional from our first contact until the end of the trip.
Our guides were thorough, knowledgeable and extremely pleasant to share our vacation with.
The hiking routes and terrain far exceeded my very high expectations. Our hotels, food and schedules were well thought out and all taken care of for us.
We would return to Alpenwild (myself, spouse and 27, 28 year old children) and would highly recommend!

Every detail of the Best of the Swiss Alps was done with excellence. Our guides, Louis and Sofie, were personable, knowledgeable, helpful and attentive to our small group of 12 hikers. Everyone hiked at their own pace while being sensitive to the need for rest stop periodically. Both guides did a great job of interacting with everyone making for a very memorable trip.

The hikes varied in length and the mountain scenery was breathtaking. We look forward to traveling again with Alpenwild in the near future.

OMG!!! What an amazing hiking adventure. Sophie and Luis were amazing guides and adjusted hikes around weather (rain) that came up on the last day. Unfortunately, the week passed too quickly. Alpenwild found the perfect hotel location and guides for this trip. The restaurants they chose were fantastic and we could choose off the menu. Sophie and Luis packed a picnic lunch for us on each hike where we were able to enjoy local delights (cheeses, breads, fruit, etc.). The hikes were all different, some more challenging than others. We were able to meet the owner in Grindelvald and let him know how much we all enjoyed the hiking and sights. We would definitely refer Alpenwild to anyone interested in more vigerous hiking and are currently considering another hiking trip with them.

The experience was absolutely fantastic! The French Alps were beautiful. We spent three days in Megève and four in Chamonix. The hikes were challenging but not overwhelming. Our leader, Sophie, Wes outstanding. Her knowledge, leadership, organization and relatability were wonderful. She was leading a bunch ( 3 couples) of senior retirees and as a young lady, she kept us on our toes. Also, her picnicking skills, purchasing, carrying, preparing outdoor meals at 6-7000 feet were both impressive and delicious. She deserves a bonus. Also, our hotel accommodations were very nice and centrally located. They included pools and spas with saunas and steams as well. The top enjoyment was the tremendous meals at the restaurants every evening. Incomparable! Can wait to find another trip to experience this richness again.

Alpenwild knows how to put together a winning hiking package. Hubby and I, and 2 other couples, participated in an 8 day hiking adventure/challenge in the French Alps. The tour included all meals which could be ordered off the menu, hotels, guides, and transportation from place to place, as well as a 6 day gondola pass for the areas we were hiking. I knew I’d probably have some issues with the altitude and our wonderful Alpenwild guide, Sophie, was able to find alternative routes that weren’t as strenuous for me so I could meet up with the rest of the group for our picnic lunches on the mountain.
Our certified outdoor trekking guide was so much fun, so attentive, and so knowledgeable. One of my favorite parts of the trip was the day we visited the Aiguille du Midi.
The food, the hotels, the guides, and our fellow hikers were all A+ and hubby and I highly recommend Alpenwild for a first class experience!

My husband and I, with two friends, did The Best of the French Alps hiking tour through Alpenwild in late August. From start to finish we had a wonderful trip. Transfers went smoothly and the hotels were all very good. We had better than expected weather, which also helped!

Three things stood out for us. First, the food was fantastic. All meals (but not alcohol) were included and, when we went out, we could choose from the regular menu. On most hiking days we picnicked and the selection of food was delicious.

Second, the hikes were beautiful and each was a bit different from the others. You do need to be in decent shape since you are hiking at some altitude with elevation changes and we were happy we brought poles.

And third, our lead guide, Sophie, was wonderful. She was organized, prepared and very personable.

It was great to be able to do day hikes and then come back to a tasty meal and a comfortable bed each night. We would definitely consider another hiking trip with Alpenwild.

I love how everything was so organised and well executed. Louis and Sofie were excellent tour guides. They knew the routes and the place quite well, and they were fun to be with.

I will definitely book Alpenwild again for our next adventure.
