It was my first travelling alone overseas and I absolutely loved it! Every day was organized and the sightseeing tours were great! Very good hotels and in safe neighborhood. Really good breakfasts. Discovery Nomads recommended very good restaurants and I was truly enjoying myself and I think I should do this more often. Overall, unforgettable vacation!
A Must Do for every keen hiker This was an excellent trip. The views are stunning and we were fortunate enough to have 9 dry and sunny days. Loved hiking from France to Switzerland to Italy and back to France.
Being able to have a drink and cake at some of the refuges was a real bonus.
There were quite a lot of snowfields to cross but we were very fortunate in that we were able to trek the whole route. Two weeks before and this was not possible.
We were a party of 3 self-guided - 2 normal bikes/1 e-bike. Starting late May. Weather perfect and a lovely time of year with wildflowers along the roadsides. Route was fascinating and varied with vineyards, agriculture, villages, mountains and more. Who knew the Romans built so many edifices, roads, and towns that still survive today in this area? So much to see. We had added an extra day for each town and were so glad we did. Hotels all acceptable, with one glitch re booking in Nimes. Taxi service for luggage worked perfectly. A small thing, and really the only gripe - the Guibo app navigation was a bit dodgy at times and we would have preferred additional backup resources to support the route. 100% reliant on good phone reception and working data. It was a memorable trip with great weather, friendly people, gorgeous food and wine and amazing history to explore.
