Unforgettable hiking trip in Switzerland

We did the 8-day Via Alpina hiking trip and it was phenomenal. Our guide Mel was knowledgable, fun, and always 2 steps ahead of us in suggesting hikes and activities that pushed our fitness level in a way we really enjoyed. When it was too rainy to hike on one day, she guided us through Interlaken and interesting local attractions. She really made the trip unforgettable. Cannot recommend her enough as a guide!

Operator response

We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her—she’ll be delighted! It’s wonderful to hear that even the rainy day became an opportunity to discover something new. We hope to welcome you back to the Swiss Alps soon!

Perfect Itinerary

The whole family agreed this was our best vacation ever. It was the perfect blend of exertion and relaxation with each day revealing a new awe-inspiring perspective of the natural and manmade beauty of Switzerland. Our guide, Walter, was pivotal in providing peace of mind, humor, and education. He helped make our itinerary feel customized to our interests and energy levels - and quickly felt like a trusted friend. He managed all the logistics and made informed recommendations for ancillary activities that allowed us to simply relax into the experience. I highly recommend this tour and our expert guide, Walter!

Simply put, WOW

My Mountains did a fantastic job curating this trip. First time traveling to Switzerland and participating in a multi-day village-to-village hiking trip. The ease of booking and communication before the trip was excellent. Before arriving, the guides opened up a group chat for direct and easy communication. WE did the self-guided tour, but it did include a meet-and-greet guide on the arrival day, and then on the first full day of hiking we did have a guide, which was very useful. Our Guide (Thomas) was very friendly and knowledgeable. He stayed in contact throughout our trip with several tips and ideas to change up hikes if we needed to. All the hiking trails were just amazing, granted we had perfect weather. Each day brought a new adventure, and at times we felt like the only people around. If you enjoy hiking, this trip is for you. Worth every penny!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your first Swiss hiking adventure and that Thomas helped make the experience so seamless and memorable. We're especially glad you loved the trails, flexibility, and communication throughout the trip. Thank you for recommending MyMountains!

9 Day Heart of Switzerland Hiking Trip

9 Day Heart of Switzerland Hiking Trip - a review Let me start by saying that I normally do not post reviews, but this trip surpassed all of my expectations. It was simply the best vacation my husband and I have ever taken as a couple. Pre-trip support was prompt and helpful. The trip was well-coordinated with an itinerary designed to maximize our enjoyment of each region on our tour. Our private tour guide Melanie was friendly, helpful, and professional. Our time spent with her exploring Lucerne and on our guided hike were definitely highlights of our trip. The logistics arrangements for the trip allowed us to travel effortlessly from region to region, so that we could focus fully on enjoying each day’s activities. The hotel accommodations were comfortable and well-appointed. We were treated to warm and welcoming hospitality everywhere we stayed. The hikes in each region were fabulous. We had many options in each region, allowing us to choose the best route for the specific conditions. I would heartily recommend booking with MyMountains to anyone who would like to experience an idyllic tour of the Swiss Alps. We can’t wait to come back ourselves!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are truly honored that your Switzerland Hiking Trip exceeded your expectations and became your favorite vacation together. A special thank you for your kind words about Melanie. We are delighted she helped make your time in Lucerne and the Swiss Alps so memorable. Thank you for your recommendation, and we can't wait to welcome you back for another adventure in Switzerland!

A vacation for the soul!

We went on the 8 day self-guided multi region hike. Then on the 3 day side hiking trip in Zermatt. My Mountains arranged all hotels and for the transportation of our luggage each day. We loved the hiking trip. September was an awesome time of year to go. The weather was in the 70's, and only encountered crowds in Grindlewald. The hikes were phenomenal, and we loved the opportunity to choose our own hikes and to use the public transportation of trains, gondolas and ski chairs daily. The food in Switzerland was excellent with a focus on fresh farm to table food. The scenery allowed us to relax and be 'in the moment' with the beauty and sounds (cow and goat bells) of the landscape. My Mountains did an amazing job choosing the hotels. In every hotel our room had beautiful views. We loved all the hotels we were in. The only suggestion I have is to book the resort in Frut-Malchese for 2 nights. It was so nice we didn't want to leave after 1 night! The two guides we had at the start of the trip and Zermatt were excellent. We found them extremely knowledgeable, helpful and fun to hike with. The only glitch occurred when we traveled to Zermatt. We thought our luggage would be delivered, as it was for the first week. It ended up getting stranded at our previous hotel, and so were without luggage for one night. We recommend better communication to make sure that the information is very clear that we needed to transfer our own luggage to Zermatt. Overall, though and wonderful trip.

Operator response

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a rich and thoughtful review—it truly means a lot! We’re delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your multi-region adventure and the side trip to Zermatt. September really is a gem of a month to explore Switzerland, and it sounds like you made the very most of those golden-weather days. Your note about the itinerary is a great suggestion, that’s the feedback we love hearing! We’ll absolutely keep that in mind. Regarding the luggage mix-up on the way to Zermatt, thank you for pointing it out. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that caused. We’ll make sure our communication around luggage logistics is clearer so future guests have a perfectly smooth transition between regions. All in all, we’re thrilled the trip was such a meaningful experience for you both. Whenever Switzerland calls you again, we’d be honored to help craft your next adventure!

Very professional and efficient service

I really appreciate that My-Mountains could put together my five day self-guided trek from Meiringen to Adelboden through the Swiss Alps on very short notice. I had a norrow window to do this hike and they came through. They were professional and the luggage transfer worked very smoothly. The lodging accomodation was excellent. This all contributed to a great trekking experience and I would recommend this company.

Operator response

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so happy we could make your Alpine trek happen on short notice and that everything—from luggage transfers to accommodations—ran smoothly. It’s great to hear you had such a fantastic experience, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!
