We booked a 7 day trip with U-Tracks, with the ultimate goal of summiting Gran Paradiso. We were a group of 11 work colleagues who annually take on a charity event with this being the selected even this year. I must admit the trip was spectacular. the 6 day 'approach' to gran paradiso was varied in the way of physical challenge and then scenery. our guide - max was first class. he was able to assess the group and maintained a superb pace to keep us all moving. this was the first time we had taken on something as demanding as this (the final day in particular). The last day summit of gran paradiso was physically challenging but not technically (the very final summit section becomes technical but very well managed). the whole trip was fantastic from start to finish. I would 100% recommend and use again.

Overall satisfied with the tour. Guides were pleasant and knowledgeable. Drivers were safe and friendly. Areas to improve is to ensure bud drive back to the hotel when guests were left to tour the city. We were a big group 17 pax and were left in the city to find our own means to get back to the hotel. The Sintra excursion was a disappointment to the whole group as we were not taken to the actual Sintra Castle but only at the bottom site where there is not much to see. We all felt short changed for the excursion fees we paid. The Flamenco excursion was unsatisfactory too. Also we were misinformed that the Flamenco is outside the city and would be tight if we watch the bull fight show of 6pm. We were all dismayed when we were taken the Flamenco venue located only within the bull fight stadium.
