Genuine reviews from people that have been on our tripsQuestions & Answers
[H2] FAQs
How do I get to the trip start location?Clear instructions are given for where the meet points are. Consider this when arranging flights. The TMB Highlights trip includes an airport pickup, but other trips require using the efficient Swiss Train system or an airport transfer. If you miss the start time, contact us, but you may have to catch up with the group on your own. Waiting can incur costs. Do I need to carry everything?You need to carry everything you need for your 4-day summer hiking trip. You can leave luggage at all the start points and collect it at the end of your trip. Other trips have different conditionsHow far do we hike each day?You can find this information in the itinerary on the trip page for each day. Our trips are designed to be challenging but achievable. Also, the distances may vary slightly from those advertised. Guides will pick the best route for the group, conditions, and weather on each day. What will the weather be like?In the Alps, the weather changes all the time. "Hope for the best and plan for the worst." We've never let the weather ruin a trip yet, so pack your waterproofs and your sunglasses, and expect to use both. Don't message us for a weather forecast - it'll change 5 mins later.  Can you cater for speciality diets/ vegetarians/ vegans?We will certainly do our best. Do let us know when you book if you have specific dietary requirements on your trip information form. But bear in mind that mountain huts are limited in their options and have to be stocked by helicopter. If you have a very special diet please bring suitable supplementary snacks. Can I book on my own?Absolutely. All of our trips typically have 4 or more solo travellers. We make a group who have never met each other a team and friends within a day. So don't hesitate to join the Alps Adventures experience and make new friends. Should I tip the guide?Yes. It is not mandatory to tip in the Alps, but always appreciated by the hard-working guides and makes a huge difference to them. We pay above market rates but it is a short season and it is a low paying job.  A suitable amount is between 20 and 50 Euros per person. Please also give them the 5* rating they are bound to deserveWhat is a sheet sleeping bag?Alpine hostels are not hotels and they do not change the sheets. Every traveller brings a lightweight cotton or silk sleeping bag that acts as their personal sheet. You are provided with duvets or blankets and pillows. We sell these for the reduced price of 25 Euros/ Chfs if you need one.  What about plugs?Switzerland has weird electrical plugs. They are hexagonal. We sell these for just 10 Euros/ Chfs, and they work in all our hostels. We also have earplugs if you forget them.Am I fit enough?That's not an easy question to answer. This is your holiday, and we want you to enjoy it. Different trips require different fitness levels. But generally, if you can walk in the mountains all day and you have a strong mental attitude, then you'll be fine. We are used to looking after people. That being said, this is a hiking holiday in serious mountains. There are deadlines for the safety of the group and to meet transport options. Feel free to message us if you have particular concerns about a specific trip. What is included in the price?All trips include expert instruction from qualified guides, bed, breakfast, and evening meals. Lunches, Drinks and Tips are generally not included. Wonderful views, stories, local knowledge and helping you to achieve your dreams and make memories for life are all free. Do I need to bring anything special?You will be sent a kit list prior to your course. If you need specialist equipment, it will be included in the course (e.g., Snowshoes, Via Ferrata equipment). You are required to bring your own boots/ shoes. It is certainly a good idea to walk these in and not turn up with new shoes—blisters ruin a holiday. What kind of accommadation do we stay in?Our primary type of accommodation is an Alpine Hostel. We stay in shared rooms with shared bathrooms. Most have showers and electricity. All serve tasty, high-energy, filling meals. All have great views, beer, wine and soft drinks. This is definitely part of the adventure and something that makes people nervous, but they soon settle into it. If you struggle to sleep, then pack earplugs or  noise-cancelling earphones.   Can I book a private trip?Yes, prices vary depending on the number and the trip. If you have a group of like-minded people who want to come together, contact us for availability and special rates.How much money should I bring, and in which currency?You will need cash on the trail. Many places do not take cards—you are leaving the city! Currency depends on the trip; Swiss Francs (Chfs) and Euros are likely. Amount - 200 - 300 per person depending on how much you eat and drink. What is the best time of year to come?Another challenging question. All of the months in the Alps are brilliant, and each has slightly different pros and cons. Any time we run a trip, you are guaranteed to have a great time.  Do I need a Visa? Insurance?This depends on where you are coming from and how long you are staying. Please check your government's advice. The ETIAS system will start in 2025. Ensure you check that. You must have travel insurance that covers rescue. Do I need walking poles?We HIGHLY recommend them. You will see all of your guides use them. We will teach you how to use them if you have not used them before. We rent them for just 10 Euros/ Chfs. Used well you benefit from a 20% energy saving.
