I had such an amazing experience with Mapo Tapo on the TMB! Everything was so well organised, from the itinerary and huts to the food and logistics. Our guide was brilliant and the whole group bonded so well. Such an unforgettable trip and I’m already looking forward to the next adventure! 5 stars from me!!

Mapo Tapo were so organised with everything. Gave us all the information to prepare and feel in safe hands. All of the transfers, accommodation, meals ran smoothly and were great quality (worth the cost) and the guide Westy was great, he was funny, kept morale up and took fab pictures. There wasn’t a low point in the whole 5 days, everyone had a great time and I would definitely recommend doing it through them for ease and peace of mind!

Hiking a section of the Tour du Mont Blanc across Italy, Switzerland, and France was unforgettable. Our guide Tom was professional, kind, and always made us feel safe. What truly made the trip special was the group — such a fun and warm mix of people from all over the world. We laughed, supported each other, and shared something truly unique. The landscapes were stunning, the experience deeply enriching. Highly recommended!!
