We are so grateful to Margaux for her guidance in planning an eight-day trip to Switzerland. We were able to experience the amazing beauty of the Alps, the awesome technology of train and gondola travel in the country, and to stay in unique accommodations.
Our highlights were in Lucerne (Mt. Pilatus), the mountains accessible from Interlaken (Schilthorn and Grimmelwald, The First, and Zermatt (Matterhorn).
We encountered no problems with reservations for hotels and tickets for special events. All in all a wonderful experience for us.
This is our second trip with KimKim and we highly recommend their services to our friends/family.
Hotel Reviews
Very good receptionists who cheerfully assisted in our questions. Restaurant/bar area were creative and cozy. Breakfasts great.
They kindly brought a special breakfast my husband on his birthday! Great view of Jungfrau mountain and of the river from our room. Very nice accomodations.
We had a nice balcony on our room and a view of the town below. Lovely breakfast (all of the cheese options were labeled!)
I was so glad that the Tralala was located in an area of town that was no central . A bit of a hike from the train station but worth it. There were no food services in the hotel other than breakfast which was mediocre compared to other hotels that we stayed in .
Activity Reviews
I can't imagine this trip without the Swiss Pass. So easy to make decisions on where to go and when.
The tour was very interesting in describing the history of making chocolate in Switzerland. Left with more chocolate than I needed.
we did not do the Mount Rigi experience as the Mt Pilatus trip was advised by locals in the hotel. The Mr Pilatus trip was fantastic.
There are so many things to do in the area of Lauderbrunnen. I regret that we just ran our of time to see the falls in the village.
From Grindelwald we accessed THE FIRST and the many options to descend from this amazing site. We also accessed a gondola from Grindelwald to Minnlichin and then to Wengen before return to Lauterbrunnen. As Margaux advised to us, one has to decide what to do as there are SO MANY options.
We totally enjoyed this experience. We are very grateful to have Priority boarding as the early morning trains were full.
This is worth a visit in the area, A significant historical site.
Great to have this but never needed it.
Bonjour Marion and Robert,
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. It was a pleasure organizing your trip.
I'm delighted you enjoyed the Swiss trains and cable cars, as well as the majestic views of the Alps scenery and our beautiful mountains!
Thanks again for your trust in Kimkim and our local team.
I wish you all the best in your future travels,
Margaux
