All the Chalets were amazing, although I only stayed in Chalet Bediere, I saw the others which all had their own unique selling points. The hikes were great with charming views of Chamonix and the mountains. It was a challenge on the warmer days but very rewarding!
This tour is a whirlwind of delights and is everything the tour promises it to be. A taste of Europe. All of the destinations were wonderful. The optional activities were great value for money. I never would have seen so much of Paris on my own. Victoria was an incredibly kind, caring and knowledgable tour leader and James was a safe and careful driver. Ricardo was training on the tour and he was also delightful and will make a great leader too. I highly recommend the ET tour and I highly recommend Expat Explore to travel with. I will be booking again.
William, Antia, and Andrea were all very good guides. We also had 2 other local guides that were a wealth of knowledge. The Amsterdam Ibis Hotel was decent. Most of the staff was helpful, there was a fitness center but there should have been water provided, and the breakfast wasn’t bad. The Novotel d’italie hotel was better but there was no fitness center. The staff was all very helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and the rooms were spacious. Logistically the tour is not what I expected with 1-4 tour buses of people; 100+ people. At times it felt more like a high school trip than an adult tour.
