Annecy was one place I NEEDED to go back to after seeing it 30 years ago when I did a study abroad! Tim was an amazing guide and the company was very accommodating picking me up in Geneva and dropping me off at my hotel in Chamonix due to change in plans last minute! Highly Recommend!
Dear Amy, Thank you for your review! It was amazing that you got to visit Annecy again after so many years. We're so happy to have been your guide during this trip. We will pass on your kind words to Tim. Safe travels! Best regards, Customer Support / AlpExcursion.com
We used this company to transfer us from Geneva to Talloires. Communication, punctuality and quality of vehicle was excellent. Driver was very good and even had to deal with taking luggage up stairs in the rain. Would highly recommend this company.
Dear customer, Thank you for your recommendation! We are delighted to hear that you had a great transfer experience. Thank you for choosing AlpTransfer and we hope to see you again! Best regards, AlpTransfer Team
This is a tour that you MUST BOOK. Doing this tour as a private trip made a huge difference as we had flexibility. Our local guide was amazing, providing an illustrated visual tour using printed pictures and maps. Our driver Timothy was great as he was available whenever we were ready to depart and provided flexibility in our timing.
Dear Tim, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour. If you plan future adventures in Switzerland, we'd be thrilled to assist you again. Safe travels, AlpTransfer Team

We rented a car in Geneva and drove into Annecy, France. Our car was a Peugeot with a GPS screen and in the dashboard where the speedometer is located in the States. This was so terrific in helping us find our way tonAnnecy and back. Crossing the border between Switzerland and France was no big deal... by observing other drivers we were able to negotiate the payment kiosks via credit card, and eventually found ourselves in the old, original village along the Thiou River. There is a large public parking lot near the village where we parked for three hours while walking around.... spoiler- the parking kiosk is only in French so we had difficulty buying our permit until a kind local understood enough English to help us. The village is well preserved, though ancient, with many shops and restaurants to visit. Many chances to purchase souvenirs including street paintings. Absolutely chatmingband a wonderful beginning to our European vacation!!
<p>Great trip. Highly recommend it. Driver/Guide was very nice. Really a pretty village. Had great cheese fondue in a restaurant the Guide recommended and one of the best pastries I have ever eaten in a bakery there.</p>
