This was an "up and down trip" in several ways. It got off to a particularly bad start when one of the group collapsed and died on the first walk. It was...

The walks were definitely challenging for an occasional hiker such as myself and the trip notes are well written in this regard. An experienced, individual hiker mig...

Oliver, the leader, was unenthusiastic, like an office clerk doing the same job for years. He was difficult to understand, sometimes snappy but foremost, I felt...
These are lovely walks but the accommodation is too cramped. The walk on the second day to Lac Blanc was probably the best and the weather was at its kindest then. ...
This was a terrible weather week. The mountains were visible on our arrival and for about 30 minutes on our free day. I had an injury that kept me from hiking, but...
This review is purely to do with the room allocation policy for this trip which is not transparent. The later you book the more likely you are to have a rubbish room...
Editor’s Take
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.
Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
Switzerland is a very outdoor travel focused country - with suitable activities and tour types for multiple age groups. From luxury ski lodges to intense hiking in the Alps, the mountain scenery is the star in Switzerland reviews - sometimes making up for other parts of the tour that may not have gone according to plan.
Given that many Switzerland tours feature a lot of time outside in winter and summer, be prepared for some time among the elements.
If your Switzerland tour is included on a wider Europe trip, it’s also a good idea to be mentally prepared for some long bus rides. Some negative reviews for Switzerland comment on too much time going from place to place, and not enough time exploring.
