First time traveller with Expat and I can't praise them highly enough. You get terrific value for money, the accommodations were mostly excellent (except one had no hot water). Tour leader and driver were outstanding. Days were long but we saw so much more than anticipated. Will use them again.
Our experience with the tour was a marvellously magnificent positive experience. Seeing places in Europe, such as London, France, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium, was a fantastic, exciting feeling. Our group could not take off our phones to take pictures of each place. We bought souvenirs from each location to remember our experience. All the hotels we stayed in were great. The breakfast and dinner were amazingly surprisingly delicious and fulfilling. The walks on the sightseeing were fantastic. Most of all, the tour journey was positively explendid because of our team leader: Gabi. She was amazingly positive, caring for each of us throughout the journey. She was knowledgeable, approachable, and professional. Also, the travel was safe because of the fantastic driving skills of Florentine. He ensures our security throughout the journey and also keeps our belongings safe. Overall, the tour journey was a unique and wonderful experience.
My Magical Tour du Mt Blanc Adventure! I did this trip in July 2017. It was the most magical, memorable and rewarding adventure trip I have ever done.! This trip is not about rushing from A to B. This trip is all about the journey. It is about having fun, it is about the magical scenery, it is about the culture of the people who live in the alps and most importantly it is about the people you meet along the way. You get out of this trip what you put in to it. Our guide Jeff was fantastic. He was professional, intelligent, engaging, fun, friendly, safety conscious, and most importantly very caring towards his customers. Jeff is the most inspiring guide I have ever met! The accommodation was great. We stayed in a variety of hotels, hostels and auberges. They were all of a high standard, clean, hygienic and all the staff were friendly. The staff at the Richemond Hotel in Chamonix were outstanding. They were very friendly and helped me practice my French which I greatly appreciated. Our meals were great, with plenty of choice. You must try the cakes at the Bovine Refugio! The hiking pace each day was good. It was steady, however you could stop and take photos whenever you liked or even just stop for a few minutes to ' soak up nature'. I liked our exercise session every morning after breakfast. It was a great way to get our muscles ready for our long day of hiking. It also helped with team bonding as we always had lots of laughs during this time, watching each other trying to balance on one leg and hopping about. If you want to be inspired, have fun, and go on an epic adventure, go with this tour operator!
