Our hike around the Matterhorn exceeded my expectations. Our hikes each day had varied interesting experiences, the accommodations were unique and food was good. And our guide Mathilde was capable, informative, and contributed knowledge and guidance that really helped us succeed and have reasonable expectations. Would highly recommend this trip!!

Our guide Mathilde was absolutely WONDERFUL! She was full of information and very patient when we wanted to take breaks and take photos. She was also great at keeping our group together and very thorough when providing information about the huts. It was also nice being able to have special diets in our group accommodated.

Hi my name is Jada, I hiked around the Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps from August 17th-20th. I want to thank Mapo Tapo for this experience and simply the people I met while hiking. It was such an amazing memorable adventure that I will remember and hold near and dear to my heart for the rest of my life. I was nervous going into this not knowing what to expect but it ended up being exactly what I wanted, needed, and more. All the people I met that hiked along by me throughout the time were tremendous individuals with such beautiful souls inside and out. Anybody that crosses pass with them are very lucky. I hope in the future I get to cross paths again with all of them! I not only hike around the Matterhorn but I made life long friends, memories, and walked away with a completely new perspective on life because of it. This adventure changed my life for the better and I’m so beyond grateful that I took this opportunity booking through Mapo Tapo. I’m already thinking about future adventures I’m going to be needing to go on! Thank you Mapo Tapo and everyone that was apart of this adventure! With lots of love and adventures - Jada💛

This was such an amazing trip! Matilde did such a great job! She looked out for all of us. She did a nice job explaining our days and keeping us on schedule! She was fun and flexible with our need for taking lots of pictures! I would do another trip with her and I highly recommend her!
