Gondola and glacier tour.

Published on Sep, 2023

A really enjoyable afternoon! Our guide was great and very informative. The glacier is small, but the views spectacular.

Fabulous

I was the only one on the tour. My guide was super friendly and his history about the glaciers and the mountains was very impressive. Even though I was the only one, he took his time with me and made it a very memorable experience

Once in a lifetime experience

Published on Jun, 2023

Tasch and Rob were fantastic guides. They made sure we were equipped with the proper equipment and provided the boots, helmet and pick axe. It is a difficult hike. I would recommend for people in great shape who are able to hike up the snowy and rocky mountain. I had a hard time keeping up with the group, but Tasch stayed back with me and helped me with every difficult step. Tasch( I know I spelled your name wrong) you were the most patient and kind young man. I would not have made it to the top without your help. TY for this once in a lifetime experience. Robin, Michael and Stella

I had a fantastic time with this company. I booked 3 excursions with them and they were all great. The instructor, Maya, was amazing. I will absolutely go with them again.

Absolutely AMAZING tour!
