Great 4 day TMB trek with Alps Adventure. Good itinerary covering 3 countries and staying in half board huts. The guide did her best accommodating the group which had a wide range of experience levels. 5

Tom was a wonderful guide. He kept the group going and modified the trip as needed to accommodate individuals making the best experience for everyone. I think this trip is suitable for anyone in good shape who is used to hiking. The slow pace made the elevation a challenge but overall no issue for me. Make sure you have good boots and socks to avoid blisters and achy feet.5

What people are saying about Alps

Kevin

Grigor is an excellent guide. He is very approachable, friendly and inclusive. He engages with all the members well in the Group and organises the trip very well. I really enjoyed having him as guide and hope I have him again on future trips.

Loved this experience! Our guide was Mark and he certainly is a goldmine of knowledge and patient with our group. I had plenty of questions and Mark did his best in answering them. Dont be like me and definitely bring the suggested 100 CHF + 100 EUR. Fortunately however, some of the cafes and refugios do take card! Another thing to add, unless you plan on walking barefoot/socks definitely bring your evening sandals/slippers. The first and last refuges have plenty for guests; the 2nd one however I did not see. Used a 26L backpack which worked out fine as well. Luckily, there is a storage space in the Vert Lodge for anything you dont wish to bring as well.
