Why The Adventure 100 offers the best hiking vacations in the Swiss Alps

1. Owner operated: We own the operation. With us there is no middleman.
2. Personal Service: We meet you at the airport and are there to help throughout your stay. We provide a thorough and complete orientation, so you are fully prepared to make the most of your Alps adventure.
3. Inclusive: We include all ground transportation (lifts, funiculars, trains, shuttles) and include a full array of activities every day. Meals are served at excellent restaurants and hotels, and focus on local cuisine. You’ll enjoy the entire trip without any out-of-pocket expenses other than personal items (souvenirs, beer and wine at dinner, or a special treat)
4. Luggage Transfer: We shuttle your bags so you can bring everything you want and still travel light during the day. At night your bags are waiting for you at the hotel. You’re on vacation to enjoy the Alps, not to schlep bags.
5. Low overhead: We have a small office in the US and a big bank account in Switzerland. We lock in prices with trusted hotels, restaurants, and shuttle operators long before the tour begins. We pay all of our Swiss suppliers directly in Swiss Francs, thereby avoiding the costly currency exchange experienced by other tour operators.
6. Experienced Guides: We know where you’ll find the best photos, most fascinating wildlife, the edelweiss on the remote mountain slopes, and the best stream crossings. We can point you toward the best bakeries, local cheeses, concerts, festivals, and special events.
7. Reliable: We know the routes and the escape routes. We know where to go on a rain day and how to take maximum advantage of a sunny day. We know the hut and hotel managers and they bend over backwards for our clients.
8. Small group size: You’ll typically travel with a group of 6-10, although we can offer a trip for just 3 or 4 guests. You’ll enjoy intimate hotels, wonderful personal connections, and the fun that comes in traveling with like-minded friends.
9. Flexible: When you travel with an experienced guide you’re not the one worrying about rerouting in nasty weather or finding accommodations and a shuttle if you need to change your plans. Our guides have the ability, experience, and authority to make changes based on weather, route conditions, and the needs of our clients. This means you get the best possible experience no matter what the weather or route conditions may be.
10. Accessible: Our team of experts is easily accessible in the US to help with travel arrangements and special requests before, during, and after your trip.

Whether you’re looking for our Best of the Swiss Alps, the Haute Route, the Matterhorn Circuit or a custom program of hiking and trekking in Switzerland, give us a call for the outdoor vacation of your dreams.
