Zermatt Tours in Fall

We had a fantastic trip! The hikes were thoughtfully devised to maximize scenic views and quaint villages along the way. There were multiple options to shorten hikes by jumping on a bus, train, tram or gondola and with the maps and written guides traveling in these region is fairly easy to do. The hotels were clean but a few folks in our group had some issues (tiny rooms and bathrooms, funky smells, windows that didn't open and no views) and regretted not paying for the hotel upgrade. My wife and I were pleased with our rooms and also didn't spend much time in them!

Good organisation. The guide, Elie, translated everything in English for me as I was the only non-French in the group. He also prepared delicious meals everyday. Walking pace was good for all the group. Night stays had everything essential and the dinner and breakfasts were also good. Overall, a truly "rustique" adventure in the Swiss Alps, in contact with nature and the mountain.

We really enjoyed visiting iconic Swiss towns and taking in the the stunning scenery including both The Tiger and the The Matterhorn. Unfortunately, we both got COVID four days before the trip commenced so could not take advantage of all the walking options due to our reduced energy levels.

Accommodation in Meiringen, Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen and Zermatt was very good. Breakfasts were ample and staff were friendly and helpful at each location. The walking tracks were interesting and well signed. Trip notes and maps were comprehensive and easy to follow. We really enjoyed our trip.
