Trekking in Istria

Alpine Ramble Trecks was amazing!!!! They adapted quickly for every changes of our group with the war. The Guide (Addit) is just the definition of perfection. Comunication great

With these guides and porters, you can not think much about trekking. You just have to get to the beginning point, and then they will take care of you!

This experience was profound ! We had an amazing time, the service was excellent. Porter mi mi, vie, and guid Sagar were absolutely fantastic. We had so many laughs and fun along the way, would highly recommend. Trip of a lifetime

From initial contact, to the end of our adventure, the website, details, information, follow-up and reminders were excellent and appreciated. Up to date information on the weather and GPS trails were greatly appreciated. Our accommodations were easy to find and were clean with friendly staff. The daily food recommendations helped a lot when you are tired and hungry. An amazing adventure was had by all. Thanks Bookatrekking

Great organisation no issues and the preparation was just right. The W trek is a wonder.

They arranged our Annapurna basecamp trek in Nepal and did such a good job! Would definitely recommend Bookatrekking.com for all your adventures!!

We absolutely loved everything about our trek to Poon Hill and Ghoreoani and the staff of alpine ramble! Our guide Tek and porter Karna were so attentive and made sure we had everything we needed at all times during the hike. Also Dil was fantastic to organise with and made the process very easy! I 100% recommend this company for any trek in Nepal!

Trekking with the Bookatrekking was amazing, the team in Nepal is fabulous. A very well briefed when we arrived in Kathamndu by Dil and guide Addit and porters were phenomenal, every day was blast, we were taken care making sure we ll had a great night sleep, good food and well being. We felt we are well taken care of from the very beginning pf the trip to the end. Could not asked better guides then them. The best experience in our life. The team was exceptional- no words can explains their outstanding jobs. Life-changing experience!

Bookatrekking provide a turn-key service. They booked all the huts for me on the Alta Via 2, provided guidance, maps and gps navigation and tips for all parts of the trip. They were easy to contact and were extremely helpful throughout the process. All of these things made my trip easy and worry free. While on the trek, I spoke to many other hikers who had tried to organise their own treks. They all reported that it had been a nightmare booking huts. I avoided all that hassle by going with Bookatrekking. I recommend them and would definitely use them again!

Basically everything we asked for you took on board and made happen even if it is was a request possibly not often thought about and asked for. This made the walking trek so much more enjoyable and allowed everything fall into place like clockwork. Even a small problem with one accommodation was instantly rectified with one of your team in Portugal on the telephone with the hotel. We would certainly book with yourselves again and recommend Bookatrekking.com. Well done excellent service.

We had a great time with Iman and Dil where we did the Manaslu Circuit trek. They were very friendly, helpful and everything was always well organised. Despite the bad weather, the atmosphere remained very good and we were eventually even able to finish the circuit, while this was not the case for many. We laughed a lot and we will definitely come back for another circuit trek. Iman and Dil are brothers for life.

Our guide was fantastic. He gave us the benefit of his local knowledge and experience by adjusting our itinerary in anticipation of sleet and snow (!!!) in October, so we ended up having four great hikes. He encouraged us and had so much positive energy.

Trail Maps were great and that you could download them into an app that you were familiar which was also good. We could safely go at our own pace knowing everyone had good support. We travelled as a family of 8 adults and the huts made sure we were looked after together.

Great support with help for alternative tracks. Everything well organised. Excellent app with all info and digital maps.

We had a great trek and it was comforting to know that we would arrive at our hut with food and beds already arranged.

I'm not going to lie...this trip was SUPER CHALLENGING! Bookatrekking provided clear and simple instructions for how to get from point A to point B each day and the overnight accommodations were comfortable, clean & welcoming. The food at each hut was delicious + plentiful. Navigating this trek would have been impossible without the help of Bookatrekking! They can't help you with the physical challenges of a trip like this but they do an excellent job of creating a customized path and places to stay along the way.

We had a great trip! Refugio Comichi was special, and bookatrekking gave us what we needed. Will use these guys again!

The app really helped us. all the accommodation booked by bookatrekking was clean and comfortable.

The app was great for following the trail, communication with the company was excellent and the booking was an easy process. When we lost a jacket on the trail, they found it and delivered it to us at a Refugio, 2 days later on the trail which was quite a feat!

Every detail was covered. We particularly loved the map. Thank you too for helping us map out the remainder of our trip after we spun off from the group. Highly recommend Bookatrekking!

The Bookatrekking app was so helpful and imformative from the time our booking was confirmed through to completion of our trek. Great guidance of what to expect, tips & videos, planning, accommodation choices and live navigation app during the trek (especially reassuring as some trail signage was a bit confusing).

The organisation was perfect and the team and guides were amazing!

Very nice routes and rifugios. Good information before the trip.

Very helpful and good flexibility around booking of Refuges.

Excellent communication and they found and transferred a left behind jacket to me in one day. Great service

They made the our trek hassle free. They took care of all the logistics from hut to hut and the app was so handy for all the information we needed about our booking and day the day to day for the hiking we were doing.

Carros de Foc in the Spanish Pyrenees is an absolutely spectacular & stunning trail. The trail is easy to follow however it is more difficult than described. Allow for more challenging and longer days during your trek. The huts are fun but overcrowded.

Great walk. Beautiful scenery. But also not easy to walk the sand parts. But the scenery made up for any difficulty

TMB was An ‘out of the confort zone’ experience in every aspect (physically , sleeping in huts etc )but at the same time, one of the most unforgettable experiences ever . Thanks to the book a trekking team .

We loved the Menalon trail. The lodging was great, the distances and elevation were moderately challenging. The views and culture were incredible.

The accommodations and GPS program were excellent. The trek of the Portugal Southern Fisherman’s Trail was absolutely fantastic. We would definitely use Bookatrekking again.

A problem free hike. Great app and clear and relevant information. Our suggestion would be to add on the trails in the app special spots for scenery etc

Fishermans trail excellent

Easy to use app with clear instructions which made the hut to hut hiking directions seamless. Awesome itinerary with great huts booked, very handy to have the bookings covered for us

From selecting a trek to the booking process the staff from Bookatrekking were very helpful and professional in dealing with our requests. The trek went very well and all bookings were in good order. The overnight accomodation was good and as per our expectations. We will definitely use Bookatrekking for our next trek

Very fast and good service. The offline map was great and helped alot.

Fabulous walk. Pretty good accommodation. Navigating at times a little tricky. Head for heights required and gear for via ferata even when it’s suggested that it is not required.

Most incredible views, panoramic most of the way. Highly recommend this hike. Bookatrekking helped by booking huts in sequence taking a lot of the planning out, lining up this many huts can be challenging to arrange otherwise! Be aware, this hike has some tough sections and definitely need good weather (which we luckily had!) and there are via ferrata sections. Safety gear not essential but would be preferred if new to it! All worth it for the scenery!

This was the trip of a lifetime. With this being our first hut to hut trek in the Alps, BookATrekking made our experience accessible by booking each of our huts for us. The app they provide is incredibly convenient, especially the navigation/map feature - we relied on this throughout the trek. We also appreciated the additional information they provided about history in the Dolomites, emergency numbers and preparedness techniques, etc. The only suggestion I would provide would be giving an alternative shorter hike option on the last day in case people do not want to do a full day of hiking. For example, we hiked from Rifugio Contrìn back to Penia to catch a bus.

Beautiful trails, great huts

Impressive, Bookatrekking can provide such a good trekking system for their guests... It's user friendly and convenient.

The area I was walking in was stunning. The lodges that I was booked into, were warm welcoming and the food was really good. The paths were very well marked and easy to follow. There was good support and tips from the company, and they answered all of my questions promptly. I had some issues with the app while walking, but had no issues navigating

It was a wonderful trip, the adventure of my life. Wandering along the mountain trails of the Dolomites at every bend you discover a new view that takes away speech. Trekking in this place is a constant delight and a sense of freedom. Here the man really feels that he is alive! The organization was very good, there were no problems with accommodation and food.

Really easy way to book a trek. Four nights of accommodation in four different hotels/huts all confirmed within a couple of days. Info about the trek and the navigation app were both useful. Be good if there was an option for them to also book hotels for the night before/night after although it was easy enough for me to do this myself.

Great communication and information. Fast to answer to our specific questions

Triglav Park is beautiful

Great app! Nice hotels (higher standard than expected).

Everything was well organised and the GPS given were inch perfect.

Everything went well and was well organized.

Excellent service from start to finish. Clear communication and the app and navigation were great. Accommodation was as described. I'd definitely recommend to friends and I would use them again.

Bookatrekking did a great job setting up the accommodation along the Alta Via 2 for us. It went without a hitch. Just 2 comments: 1) Via Ferrata gear should be on the 'must have' list for packing and 2) It should be made clearer that private rooms are an option when booking the Refugios.

The Dolomites are absolutely stunning! Being in nature removed from the hustle and bustle of a city is a luxury. The huts were cute with decent food!

The trekking was perfectly planned. Accomodations as described. The app is a perfect help so you can hike without worries.

Organized, good app, good communication.

We had an amazing trip! Everything was scheduled perfectly for us, so we didn't have to worry about anything. We could just enjoy the hikes each day and really just relax and take in all of the Austrian beauty. Thank you for making this journey so memorable!

Communication as timely and relevant. Maps were good.

Booking the trek was very easy, and since it was late in the summer this was the only way to get places in the rifugios. Communication with bookatrekking was great - I talked with one of their people online before going, and also communicated with them on Whatsapp during the trek itself. The app works well and provided necessary information before and during the hike. The only issue we had was that it wasn't possible to change the course length for each day since the rifugios were pre-booked. The second day was extremely hard, and we decided to just skip it and take the bus to the next rifugio. If I had more flexibility I would have chosen to split it up to two days.

All our refugios were nice, and our meals were satisfying. The only thing I wished, the company would have been able to do, was to make the hikes from hut to hut more even in kilometers. Thaks a million. You did a fantastic job.

All hotels and B&Bs were arranged perfectly, never had any issues checking in. Only point of feedback is that a few stays were very basic in comparison with the total price of the trip. But others made up of it, e.g. the wellness at the second-to-last day. The trip itself was beautiful, varying and challenging at times, but it's a perfect trip for beginner trekking enthousiasts.

First time using bookatrekking. Really good experience, very easy, the staff responded very quickly. The app is very easy to use, with different options for each day.

We had a great time on our hike, and Bookatrekking made it so much easier to book/schedule our route. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The experience of TDMB is unbelievable. The magestic views, the physical challenge and the people you meet are incredible. Bookatrekking made it very easy for us given I found it difficult to book consecutive nights myself. Book early as that makes a difference. Be clear on where you want to walk and any variants you might want to do. The food supplied was amazing. Packed lunches were great. Note Refuge de la Croix du Bonhomme needed 3 days notice for a packed lunch but this is not pointed out anywhere. The rest day in Cormayeur was excellent, as was the accommodation booked for us. The app was great but could have additional information on each days walk. The descriptions were a bit 'light' but the Knife Edge book helped. Overall a fabulous experience.

We loved bookatrekkking- it was very simple and took the stress out of finding the Refugios ourselves. The app enabled us to see live updates in the booking process and was perfect to use during the hike.

Great communication from the team. We were able to reach the bookatrekking team throughout the tour and their response was prompt.

We had a fantastic time doing our first hut-hut backpacking experience. While it was only a 2-night, it gave us an ideal of how to pack and prepare for longer backpacking experiences. We met a lot of wonderful people along the way.

It was such a wonderful feeling when the 10 days trekking ends. It was well organized and maps were very helpful except one portion had a missing route. All the mountain huts were different and had a great experience of the hut stay. The most special things were meeting other hikers on trails and hut. We met many hikers from all over the world sharing the time together. I would like to do the similar trekking again next year. I hiked with my 29 years old son ( I turned 60 during this TMB hiking) and he really enjoyed this. It was a such a special memories with him.

Absolutely loved the AV2 Dolomites hut to hut trip! We had 6 days of hiking, 5 hut nights, 2 hotels during the trip and never had any issues, every hut and hotel had our reservation and all but the first hut included breakfast and dinner. All of the trip planning information was well needed and the offline navigation was very easy to use even in airplane mode and it was easy to understand and follow. 10/10, would definitely use them again!!

We loved our trek and our guide. Yes it’s a real adventure getting to the mountains so be prepared. Having a guide made it so much easier for us and I highly recommend spending that little bit extra. I would definitely do the trip again. Very professional company with great communication.

Excellent preparation by bookatrekking and Enosa Expeditions (local company) through Sierd and Noel! We booked the Northern Circuit and had the best experience. We felt very safe and well looked after at all times and enjoyed the company of our Tanzanian team. Special thanks to our awesome guides Mahamoud and Apolo, who did a great job getting us to the summit. The 4 day Safari was also a wonderful experience. We were amazed by the number of extraordinary animal encounters, only possible through the experience and knowledge of our Safari guide Shirima. All in all, we had an amazing time - to get some relaxation inbetween we recommend taking some extra time in Moshi (e g., Shose Farmhouse Chalets).

The Tour du Mont Blanc was a fantastic adventure that I can only recommend to everyone. Amazing scenery, epic hikes, great experience meeting likeminded people. Thanks for planning and organizing our trip, and for all the information provided. Everything worked great and we never had an issue along the way. I'd have only one recommendation for improvement: please improve the app. It is very basic, and though you can follow the route with it, there is not much else you can do.

They were on top of everything and answered all of my questions in a timely manner. Everything was given to us at the time that we needed the information. From booking our Rifugios to having our online maps.

The people that we met in the huts were amazing. The trek was great. Would have liked abit more info on how to get to the trailhead as we come from a country that doesn't do public transport. Rural canada. But we figured it out. We over packed. We took everything that was recommended but didn't use half of it. Shoes for huts weren't needed as they provided cross. This trek was a dream come true. Thank you so much. Trip of a life time!!!!

It was really easy to book the trip and everything went smoothly

All of the accommodations were taken care of for us

Book a trekking was great! Handled all the logistics for us so we just had to show up. The Refugio’s they booked were very nice as well. Being able to use the app to navigate was helpful, it shows all the trails so you can go the suggested route or “choose your own adventure.” Would definitely use again!

Not a single hickup, everything turned out very well.

A fantastic trek

Our experience has been great. The trip was easy to organize with the advisors. I had tried to book myself which was not an easy process and in the end needed the help of this great team!

It was an incredible experience and we were thankful for the services and tools provided by Bookatrekking, especially the packing list and navigation tools. The Alta via del Granito on the other hand was much harder than anticipated or advertised. As fit beginners we made it, but the tour should really not be underestimated. There are significant parts of the path where climbing over or up the rocks is necessary.

It reduced the effort of organising a hut to hut hike Even better if there is more detail in the day summaries and the alternative options (transport) for when there’s bad weather etc

The company went above and beyond to support us in this adventure. We didn't have Machu Picchu tickets, and they helped us to get some when all options seemed hopeless. This makes us so so happy, because we almost leave Peru without visiting the Machu Picchu. Then about the hike, the team made us be as comfy as possible. They made food all the time, so much food, and they gave us hot tea to wake up. On the coldest night they gave us hot water bottles for the sleeping bag.

Guide and porters amazing

It was great not having to worry about the logistics of navigating and booking rifugios. When I had a concern about one day being too long, we made adjustments prior to departure and they eased our concerns. Bookatrekking was very responsive! We had one hiccup with a rifugio not having our reservation on file, but because of their reputation/relationship, we were taken care of within moments.

Bookatrekking made our first backpacking experience so easy and fun! The huts were better than we expected, the map provided online was so helpful, and most importantly so easy to use. Can’t recommend enough!

Thanks for your support, everything was smooth and well organized, trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro with @bookatrekking totally recommendable! Unforgettably moments with the whole crew on the mountain :)

Very well organised, so many hiking routes to choose from. The emails I sent were replied to promptly and all my question's were answered. Hut to hut navigation was fairly easy to follow and the trails were beautiful! I would definitely use Bookatrekking again.

The trek was beautifully planned, from the navigation through the accomodation. Everything worked smoothly, and it is very easy to use the app and the navigation. Specifically for the TDC, there was a problem in the Italian section of the hike, where the navigation took in a different path than the signs, but it is better to follow the app than the signs. It would have been nicer if the hotelin Saint Remy was on the path itself rather than a small detour, but the hotel itself was great

Heads up to Book a trekking. They did what I expected without bombarding me with emails, the check in at each refugio was easy with no issues on that side. The maps and gpx were excellent. Perhaps the biggest consideration for newbies is water... Half the refugios had water for free that was potable. 2 had endless free showers if I can call it that, still I was frugal with what I used and good to see others were the same. This can add up so it pays to carry cash too. I would recommend €100 as insurance. The other glaring difference was breakfast, if you are a bread person you are in luck as all had this, but if you prefer something cooked or an alternative you will be out of luck at some stays. The coffee is also warm, not hot but these are my nitpicks so dont be put off. Best refugio by miles was Capanna Passo. Great bed, massive breakfast menu, free water and showers and family run. 6 out of 5 stars and the benchmark.

We had an amazing trek through the Dolomites & everything went smoothly with our accommodations!

Beautiful routes, nice refugios and not too many people on the route.

Great experience in the Dolomites with good choice of Refugios ( we ate very well)

Perfect weather. Beautiful mountains and views. The Dolomites are more rugged than expected. The trails were challenging and rewarding. Climbing Piz Boe was a highlight. Refugios were rustic and fun. It felt very authentic. Food was basic but we got the nourishment we needed.

My brother and I really enjoyed the 4 day Dolorama Weg. We had some dicey weather for the first couple of day with low visibility however the offline map (especially the elevation map) was easy to follow, the Refugios were amazing and the contact team at Bookatrekking were really helpful. Even with the weather, we had a really great time and the second two days were beautiful. This is a great way to go on an impressive hike, but know you’re following a safe route, and don’t have to arrange each accomodation yourself.

It was our guest visit to a hut ever. The experience was great but knowing they charged for showers would have been appreciated. Maybe a welcome email the day we arrived in the hotel with a reassuring number to call if there were issues. Luckily there weren’t. All the trek information was great but it is important you do NOT rely on the trek itinerary details to navigate with. Proper maps are required as they are not detailed enough. It was a great trip. The company provided regular updates. Thank you.

Makes planning really easy and less overwhelming. GPS worked really accurately in the dolomites!

Knowing what to expect, having accommodation and itinerary arranged, reasonable cost, good communication when required prior to our trip, great app and navigation tool. We would like to comment that some of the track markers were faded and a bit confusing even looking at a paper map. Without your navigation tool, we would struggle at times. The track numbers when shown were hard to match to map at times.

The team of TreXperience was amazing.

Everything was absolutely as advertised. The trek was nicely laid out and the app was really helpful and clever. Would definitely use the service again.

I loved our adventure! Everything we needed was right on our phones and every detail of the trip was clear and easy to follow. All bookings went smoothly, from the lovely mountain huts to the hotel at the end. Truly a well-organized and stress-free experience. Highly recommended!

Walking in the most spetacular Nature! The refugies has a fantastic locations, the people are friendly and the food is good and solid. The weather chance fast but we had mostly good weather and luckily brought the right clothes. We can only recommend this walk!

Scenery , town and pre planning

Easy booking, well functioning App incl all relevant info.

Great job booking accommodations which we’re all nice. There were a few detours/washouts that could have been pointed out. Despite the weather it was all great.

The accommodation before and after the trek was superb. The refugios were amazing. The app was really helpful and I downloaded Komoot to import the gpx files for easy navigation. It made the whole experience really easy. Well priced for amazing adventures.

All went to plan, great info and advice. Responsive team.

All arrangements were in place. Pretravel enquiries were helpful. Some helpful videos on what to expect. Coyle provide more links to aspects of the hikes eg flora, fauna, geology, history

I loved how easy and straightforward everything was so I could just focus on the trail and having fun! Thank you. I am already looking for another adventure because of how awesome the TMB was!

Amazing trip, very easy to use process and they booked all our accommodation for us, making the whole trip seamless. As beginner hikers this made the whole process very easy. Would highly recommend this company!

Well planned, appropriate distance between huts. I enjoyed all the huts - different vibes at each but good food, beds, people. We met many groups who used Bookatrekking and were on the same itinerary as us. Navigation app was very helpful and worked well offline. Bookatrekking was helpful and responded to my inquiries quickly.

Good choice! Hasslefree and very well informed! Application excellent. Even though couple of times distances were not precise. I recommend this company honestly from my heart!

Smooth booking process, great info before the trip, and everything went smooth at the refuges.

We booked a 4 day safari and the 9 day Northern Circuit. The booking and planning process was really great, we had a lot of support and we had answers for all of our questions. Regarding the trip itself, it was amazing. Enosa team in Tanzania was great, we had the best team taking care of us as if we were family. Unforgettable.

Everything went incredibly smoothly, I didn’t have to worry about any of it and got to enjoy my hiking experience!

Everything was great. Maybe let people know they will have to pay for showers. We didn’t know this going in.

The Bookatrekking experience was exactly what I needed. As a solo traveler and my first trek in Europe, the bookatrekking experience included everything I needed. First, the app was incredibly knowledgeable with tips and tricks, packing materials, answers to all my questions, and very easy to navigate. Second, the huts were all taken care of completely and had a seamless check in and dining. Third, the bookatrekking app had perfect navigation and routing, which made for a wonderful hiking experience. The hike itself was one of the most amazing experiences filled with the beauty of the Alps. Highly recommend this trek and also Bookatrekking.

We made an 8 person reservation for tour du mont Blanc in July 2025. The huts were totally informed for our stay and they have noted also about my food diary. Everything went well. Thanks bookatrekking l!

Easy-to-use gps map and fun, reasonable routes! We

Great customer service. Received updates weekly. Navigating the hike was made simple by using the Bookatrekking ap. Wonderful experience!

Bookatrekking was a great company to work with. All the details of our hut to hut hike were taken care of. Additionally, the staff was ready to answer questions via email or phone and helped me when our original plans had to change. I will use them again if I get back to Europe for some more hiking.

All that we need was on the app , they were very good at replying to emails

Easy to use the GPS. Easy to tjek in in all hotels. Easy to Connect up with the taxi driver who should bring us through the close part of the trek. But it is very important that you bring some food because there Will be many treks where you Can get no food during the trek.

Great trip. Good customer success experience from the booking.

What an amazing experience! Thank you so much to Bookatrekking for organising everything for us. The app was a fabulous support and was invaluable at times. The refuges were ok, some better than others and we met some great people along the way.

This was a great walk for a few days with comfortable guest houses, plenty of food and a variety of hikes. The planning was helpful and bookatrekking staff were wonderful and responsive. They were excellent to work with and I would use them again.

Was a brilliant walk, great accommodation, maps easy to follow, really enjoyed the walk, just make sure you have plenty of cash for the last 3 days, as some Refugio’s only take cash. Would definitely use booker trekking again.

A wonderful experience, well set, between hotel with sauna and hut in the moutains, spectacular scenic views. I did'nt do the last day, the 8 hours afraid me but as the train is going all through the valley it was easy to reorganise myself, on the counselling of people from the area.

Great service and beautiful hike

Meeting peoples and making friends is most fantastic experience during the trek! Enjoy the magnificent landscape in Dolomites and services provided by rifugios! Most of all thoughtful planning of the company is a big help!

I booked, via Bookatrekking, an arrangement whereby they booked my refuges (huts). They also provided my with a guided app. among itinary -the routes to walk and the places to sleep-. What also was very nice that sometimes -from la Peule to La Fouly- they a much nicer route than the regulier route :-) Also their service is great when you have questions. There are some minor points for Improvement. I recommend Bookatrekking for sure (I give them a 9 out of 10).

Scenery was incredible. Host at hut was lovely. People we met were awesome. Plenty of water, food and toilets along the way.

Loved the views! Fantastic multi day hike!

Incredible scenery, great refugios!

Well organised. Bookings all went smoothly. Offline map was helpful although we also relied on the physical map. Good communication and updates. Questions before the hike were answered. Really helpful information such as the packing list. I would definitely use Bookatrekking again.

The main advantages of our Bookatrekking experience were that the accommodations and most meals were booked for us and the offline navigation system was very reliable.

The informational videos, the packing list, the videos of the track itself as well as of the huts and the off-line maps were off enormous benefit to making the trek the success it was

Guides and porters were professional, encouraging, and supportive.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Bookatrekking. We had such an amazing experience hiking the Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites and there were zero hiccups during our trip. Not only did the team at Bookatrekking organize our trip extremely well and ensured we had everything we needed before leaving, but downloading the trail and our itinerary with the App was a game changer. I will be using Bookatrekking again!

Superb trip. Would definitely recommend

Our hike in the Dolomites was unlike anything I’d seen before, absolutely gorgeous. Bookatrekking made it possible. I’d originally tried to plan my own route and book rifugios on my own, but struggled to navigate the variable reservation policies and the language barrier. They consulted us on which available route would best suit our skill set then handled all of the logistics for booking within 24 hours. On top of that, bookatrekking prepared us with a comprehensive packing list, training regimen, and provided a map that was crucial for navigation. I cannot recommend this service enough

Our hike across Madeira was amazing! Stunning scenery and vrry well organised by Bookatrekking.com. Laurens was extremely helpful and the taxi across the parts of the route which were destroyed by the wildfires worked smoothly. Most accommodation was very nice (especially Ribeiro Frio). In terms of the walking itself, Madeira is beautiful and the hiking is very challenging but rewarding. It definitely took the stress out doing the trip with Bookatrekking.com - highly recommended!

All was perfection organized by Bookatrekking although there was many people in refugios. And with a good weather and beautiful landscape this trekking will be a wonderful experience Thanks

Everything was well laid out and executed. The phone app for the hike was great with the map for tracking the trail each day in Offline mode. All the details were there. Communications before the hike were good. I'd be happy to use this service again.

The food was super good at the last place 'Gite le Moulin', the best of all.

A wonderful route with unforgettable views. Helpful information was provided before the start of the trek. The route is demanding, and for those who walk at a slower pace, the suggested walking times are rather difficult to achieve. On the last day, the route ends not at the accommodation but near the chairlift to Chamonix, where the hotel is located. It’s important to note that the chairlift stops operating at 5:00 PM, so if you want to make it in time, you really need to hurry that day or shorten the route. This information should be included in the app. I don’t recall any place where credit cards weren’t accepted. Dinners in the mountain huts are usually around 7:00 PM. In most places, you can get hot water for free.

The trek was incredible and the scenery could never be experienced the same any other way. The trails are very challenging (I am a 58 year old woman) and the is a LOT of vertical climbing and descending. The app is critical for navigating your way. The huts are comfortable and clean. The food is great!

Everything was arranged just like promissed. They were easily reachable when we had questions.

Everything is taken care of. The navigation, booking at the hut and detailed information about your hike is given. They also replied kindly to any questions you might have. This made me feel safe and prepared and the hike was amazing. Thank you!

Bookatrekking were helpful and very prompt in response to any questions we had. Their attitude to customers is laudable, with proactive customer contact and clear information about the upcoming trip. I can strongly reccomend their offers. This was our first travel with Bookatrekking. We will return again for another adventure.

The pre trip planning was quite good. I’d prefer to have maps and routes before beginning the trek. Providing possible exit routes to access alternative transportation would help on especially long days. Also, knowing how many kilometers/miles of road walking would be beneficial. The lodging and food services were all very good. Overall I expect to use BookaTreking again.

amazing trekking!! perfect assistance and organization some tips: - the first hotel in St Ives is not of the same standard as the following ones - the first day's trek is too long to enjoy the mines thank you!

It was a great adventure. The Company was well organized and shared valuable information to make the trip successful.

Walking and landscapes awesome

Good and professional travel organization. We booked the Annapurna Circuit Track. Information before the travel was clear, expectation where set. They use local operator that provides the guide and porter. Materials that you get like a jacket and sleepingbags are good and clean. The trip was very nice.

From start to end, tailoring the experience for our needs and up to supporting with questions while on the hike, the team abd service were wonderful, we highly recommend!

We did have an incredible trek in the Himalayas! We had the best time—everything was perfectly organized, and the experience was truly unforgettable. A special thanks to Prabin, who was not only a fantastic guide but also genuinely kind, attentive, and honorable. He took such great care of us throughout the journey. We’ll cherish these memories forever😎

A great team who pushed us to the top. They really created a positive atmosphere and we felt safe and confident!

The actual experience if treking through the Himalayas was unforgettable. The scenery, the local people, the guide and porters were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. The food was basic but kept you sustained, the sleeping bags and down jackets provided were of good quality. A downside however and what unfortunately spoiled part of our holiday, was that we were told the day before the trek started, we would be sharing rooms with an unknown number of other trekkers, this was never mentioned in any of the itinerary. We spoke to a number of other trekkers from different companies who stated they had their own accomodation throughout, so having booked 9 months in advance, I am not sure why this was not the case for us.

Great guides. Very helpful. And kind. Purna and Dowa with Alpine Rambles. I'd highly recommend these guides.

Very well organized, excellent overnight accommodations, luggage transport well arranged, good information provision. Only downside is that the GPX files are not always completely up-to-date.

The Gokyo Valley trek has been a great experience from beginning to end. It is a scenic trail that is less crowded than the EBC trek with numerous highlights such as Gokyo Ri from where we had a unique view on four eight-thousanders. Bookatrekking as well as their local partners in Nepal helped with plenty questions and advises before the trip. Our guide on the trek, Suresh, has been excellent. We had a great time hiking in Nepal!

It was great to have accomodation and transport prebooked and to just be able to turn up ready to hike. However before departure we received an email telling us we didn’t need to take sleeping bags on our hike so we didn’t take any sleeping gear with us. We have hiked other hikes where beds with sheets and pillows were provided so we were disappointed that this information was completely wrong. We were very lucky that the huts had spare gear. There were others on our hike that had also been caught out by the same incorrect information.

I really loved the Madeira trek, even with bad weather the nature and trails are very beautiful. Sadly some of the trails were challenging and some even critical due to the very stormy and rainy weather. One of my routes had to be completely cancelled. Thankfully Bookatrekking was very supportive, reached out to me to make sure I was ok and let me change to a different accommodation, thank you very much for that! Accommodations in general were very good, my only complaint would be with Casa do Abrigo on Pico Ruivo, which should come with even clearer explanations to prepare for seasons of bad or colder weather. After walking half of the day through cold storms and rain I arrived to a freezing, completely unheated, very damp and badly smelling house. Otherwise amazing experience I would repeat anytime and also with bookatrekking!!

Our hike on the Menalon Trail in early March was fabulous. The accommodations that Bookatrekking arranged for us ranged from modest to very comfortable and, in all cases, were made even better by the owners and their exquisite kindness. The driver that was set up to transport our luggage was wonderful. Although he did not speak English and we did not speak Greek, we managed to do very well using translate apps. He turned out to be more than our luggage transport as we had a couple of days where we unexpectedly needed people transport as well. All in all, I would recommend Bookatrekking as they made it easy for us and was very reasonably priced. A couple of things worth noting, though. As we were early in the hiking season, there were not many options for eating during the day or when we arrived in town at the end of our hike. In one case, the accommodation was a mile outside of the nearest town - but the hotel owners drove us in and brought us back. Getting food during the day was a little challenging. The only truly bad part of our trip (which is not a Bookatrekking issue) were the dogs. We were attacked a few times, and had to re-route a couple of times to avoid some very aggressive dogs. On our first day, one of us was bitten severely and we spent that evening in the health clinic (thanks to our driver, who waited with us). Anyone considering this hike should be aware that this is a concern; we were not prepared with anything more than hiking sticks. Outside of that, the trail is reasonably well marked (although not everywhere), the people were really terrific, and the scenery was incredible.

I booked 7 days Machame route of Kilimanjaro. The route was amazing and gorgeous. I finished in 6 days and not 7, due to a good pace so I could push further. Everything went perfectly thanks to the Guide chef and porters. The food was delicious and very good. The actual operator is Enosa Expeditions. Very nice people and arrange everything I needed 😁

Best experience on my life everything was perfect and really enjoy spending time with Krishna is very good guide he learn me so many thing about life in nepal, montagne..

Very good food, guides and porters. Encouraged us to give 110%, big part of our sucess. Thanks again Enosa! Good guides with Rayson and Ragab, also James our Waiter was brillant! 10/10

Everything worked out fine and it was a well organised trip.

It was great to climb such a mountain. Organisation was very professional, as all the staff. Because it was under rain most of the days, it would be highly recommendable to get proper winter tents and mats, just as recommendation on top of all high quality experience.

Great trekking! Just a couple of inconiniences (e.g., the first tent we got let water inside when it was raining), but the porters and guides were great and brought us safely to the top! Very good value for money.

Amazing views, great guide and cook. Youssef and Houssein for the win :)

Bookatrekking were very helpful in securing us a spot on the Alta Via 1! They were great in their communications and made the experience easy. The app you are supplied with for maps is amazing and easy to use. They provided so much info about the trip, what to bring, etc. I will definitely do another multi-day hike via Bookatrekking. Thank you!

We had a very knowledgeable and caring guide, great food and the lodges were clean and comfortable

All the reservations were great and the instructions provided were very accurate. We were provided timely information on trail closures and given alternate trekking options without which we would have wasted a lot of time. Will definitely use their services for booking future treks.

The hike was amazing! We enjoyed it immensely! The baggage transfer was always smooth with no problems and the accommodation was always comfortable. But a few of the accommodations were distanced from the town and since we were walking and had no car it was hard to get to town to eat or get supply for the next hike. Most of the accommodation had no restaurant so eating there was not an option. One more thing was that the map that they send us was sometimes incompatible with the marking on trail. I think it needs to be updated

Bookatrekking was super organized. They answered questions in a timely manner. All the reservations, itinerary information, schedules, were in place and everything went along very smoothly. The Komoot App was a great help. Heads Up: It would have been good to know they were sending the small light Cicerone Guide book by Gillain Price and we wouldn't have bought and carried the heavy Tobacco Maps. Also if they sent the Cicerone Guidebook much earlier so it had time to arrive so we could read it. Because they didn't put the country on the mailing address we didn't receive it until well after we were home. Hopefully, this will be rectified as everything else was superb.

The Laugavegur and Fimmvorduhals trail experience including huts was amazing. Bookatrekking did get all of the arrangements correct and we especially loved the Hotel Skoga after the trail but there are some logistics that Bookatrekking needs to improve upon. It took us months to get our formal itinerary after our hut dates were confirmed and there were mistakes and it had to be revised a couple of times. The Reyjkavik hotel was modest as expected but it didn't have secure storage and was inconvenient for the 6:30 bus to Laugavegur so we needed to pay for an additional stay elsewhere the night before and after in Reyjkavik. Also, Bookatrekking didn't supply us with the information to get into the Reyjkavik hotel and so we arrived there without that information and would have had no way to get in had we not happened to book additional nights there outside of Bookatrekking. Also, Bookatrekking didn't send us our bus tickets until asked for them a few days prior. And it would have been better to have sent us to the main bus station close to the downtown area from which the bus leaves after 7 AM, rather than the far away 6:30 AM bus that actually then went to the main bus station to catch the 7am bus.

Welcoming staff, nice people on the trail, well organised with all of the bookings.

We booked the Annapurna base camp trekking and it has been a great experience with spectacular views. The trip has been very well organized and our guide Addit and porter Behim did an amazing job. It has been a wonderful vacation. Absolutely outstanding !

The crew was great!

Booking through bookatrekking was easy and at first, I had doubts if it was a scam, but then all the info started flowing and when I arrived at the different huts everything was in order as it should. I was relieved when I arrived at the first hut and the reservation was in my name. The whole experience was as or better than expected.

Beautiful setting - very nice accommodations and helpful staff

I can highly recommend Bookatrekking.com. It was superbly easy to go for a trek with them.

We highly recommend Bookatrekking. Superb support and organization, and designed a 4-day Dolomite trek to meet our timeframe and plan. I felt like we had a real connection with the team and that I could call them up to discuss our next adventure. Will absolutely use Bookatrekking again in the future!

Overall we were very pleased with the arrangements. All reservations and meal services worked as planned. In a few instances we found the Komoot map to have minor errors which were easy to avoid as we also used IGN 1:25 000 maps and Strava to track our route. The short written descriptions of the route were probably cut-and-paste from some other itinerary as they were occasionally inconsistent. Somewhat confusing was also the description of the end of the tour, which stopped high above Chamonix. But overall, our experience was very positive. Even the 76-year old father (Eero) walked the entire circle!

Great trip! Great Refugio's!! Food was incredible at some!! We got lucky with weather, if we were 2 days later we would have been had big problems and not able to change our accommodations which would have been very inconvenient! There was a few small detail things missed in the communication. I still have not received my book!! I would still like it! Some of the information that requested was not correct before departure. We should have been told earlier about the free Kamoot maps. It worked out ok for me but some in our group paid before being informed by you guys. The biggest thing was our last day on trail you left us at the end of the trail with no notification that our hotel was 4 1/2 hour walk away! Good thing it all worked out good and stress free! I would consider using your company again:) Amazing trip overall!

Nice to do the hike without organising the huts and tracks

Very Happy that I booked this short Almenweg tour. I was solo, 67 woman with bad knees. I flew to Munich, easy train ride to Salzburg, then next afternoon I took a local train to Landgasthof Reitsamerhof and started the next morning right out their front door. At Athurhaus, I got the HochKonig Card, which technically is only good for 1 day, but I used it to ride the cable car down on the 3rd day. You just have to tell the attendant at the bottom the story. Note - the cable car does appear to be closed on Thursdays. Its an easy walk to the AlpenRose along a trail. I knew the last day, which is longer and steeper, would be very hard on my knees, so my husband picked me up somewhere above Bondlsee. This last leg could be hard on kids too.

a great hike in a speciale and beautiful surrounding. hut to hut went smooth, all wel organised

Despite the weather preventing the completion of my hut to hut walk, the support, advice and detail of everything Bookatrekking did was second to none.

Our experience with Bookatrekking was exceptional. We were a group of 10 strong, with ages 11 to 70. Their reservations and informative pre hike communications and data proved to be reassuring and helped all of us with our preparedness. I will use Bookatrekking in the future!

No complaints, extremely well worth it. I would not have been able to coordinate booking the huts on my own for this hike.

Bookatrekking.com made it easy to enjoy hut-to-hut hiking in the Austrian Alps.

Bookatrekking provided a very detailed itinerary that was a great help in planning for the trip. The itinerary included contact information for each hut along with distance and elevation profiles. Also included was a route overview section that acts as a quick look guide for each day including distance, ascent/descent and estimated time. This was followed by a very detailed description of each stage. This was a great help in preparing for the trip. In addition, each hut was also described in detail. The huts were expecting us and in general were very clean and welcoming.

Bookatrekking reserved all of our refugios on the TMB in 2024. They clearly have a good relationship with the refugios because everything was in order when we arrived which gave us great peace of mind. The route planning could have been a little better. They simply provided the Kamoot app with links to each day's trek and no real training on how to use it. Also, we wanted to make a tweak to our plan to see if it was possible to pay a little more and stay in a private room instead of the dorms on one night and Bookatrekking would not reach out to the refugio to even see if it was possible to make that change - which was a little disappointing. Overall, it was a great trip and we appreciate what Bookatrekking did for us.

They took a lot of the research, guesswork, and stress out of planning our trek in the dolomites. The guide they sent us was also incredibly helpful. You could book it all yourself if you are so inclined but contacting many of the huts is a little difficult, so this is by far the simpler method.

My experience with bookatrekking was excellent. The Team gave excellent advice to find the right tour for us before we booked. After booking we received all relevant details about the route, the huts and to prepare ourselves. Prior to the start of the tour, last minute information about whether conditions and accessibility of the track were aligned with the huts and shared with us. The GPS tracks provided were not fully correct, but we were always well on track, with maps and local advise, which is always the best way to get around safely. Altogether, I can fully recommend bookatrekking!

I’ve left a previous review of the company for our tour of Mont Blanc. This review is about the specific refugios: 1) Gite Les Mezeles - I can’t say enough about our hosts or about accommodations. Truly a wonderful evening! 2) La Croix Bonhommes - amazing location, but can be challenging as it’s 100 person dorm. I wish we had booked a private room. Large rooms, old bathrooms, and heavy doors that almost knocked me down the stairs. I do not have anything negative to say about the food or staff because I don’t know how they managed to get the food & cook the meal they did! 3) Refugio Elisabetta - another large dorm and some non-functioning washrooms made it challenging. Some staff were super friendly, and some staff were not willing to help. Decent food. 4) Refugio Maison Vielle - another amazing & accommodating host! Beautiful setting! Great meals! The only issue was noisy guests at 5 a.m.who would not listen to our complaints. 5) Refugio Gio Bertone - Beautiful setting! Check-in process was unnecessarily long and laborious. Meals were OK. Staff was ok. 6) Gio Alpage de la Peule - lovely setting, and wonderful meals. Friendly staff. 7) Relais Darpette - I cannot remember much about this Refugio 8) Aunerge Mont Blanc - Lovely places to sit, decent food, nice staff. 9) Gite Le Moulin - friendly staff, good showers, good meals. In Courmayeur, we were in Hotel Triolet - very friendly and accommodating staff and amazing breakfast!

We booked to hike the TMB through Bookatrekking and it was seamless - communication was great from the start, we received all our details and information in plenty of time, and there were no hiccups along the way. Would not hesitate to recommend them and would definitely use them again for a similar trip.

Good experience with good price! Areas of improvement: - The App doesn't show all the restaurants and huts for late breakfast and lunch. - The last refuge on Day 9 is 20 minutes off the track. The distance is not spread across evenly across the 10 days. Some days you just walk 4 hours, some for 7. - Some refuges provide minimal breakfast, especially on the big day where the itinerary said,"Get a big breakfast before the big climb today." - Due to the ease of accessibility, too many beginners who don't know mountain etiquette are on the hike. Like students and seniors, who tend to break the rules and disrespect other hikers in the dorms.

Bookatrekking made our visit to the Dolomites extremely easy to schedule. Their recommendations were spot on, and their customer service was top notch. Even with a snow storm and eventual cancellation of a couple of nights we found the entire experience hassle free. The hiking guide was extremely helpful, and their response to our questions were quickly answered. We would definitely use them again for any future excursions.

Great experience!! I do think it could be done in 8 or 9 days rather than 10, but over all it was so amazing! Views were phenomenal. I can’t wait to book again! We stayed in private rooms 2/10 days and only had one night with the backpacker bucks (16 twin bunks packed in a row; fairly standard). Would do again with same accommodations.

It was really helpful to have bookatrekking reserve lodging and coordinate maps. It was definitely more expensive than doing it ourselves, so I wish there had been more of a discount for multiple people. All of the accommodations were great maybe with the exception of the one at the lake near the Marmolada.

Superb TMB hike. Distances between most huts were a good but achievable challenge. Will definitely do this hike again one day.

This was the best vacation I’ve ever had. My nephew and I hiked 50 miles of the Austrian Karwendel, and every day was different: the terrain, the effort, the huts. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

Bookatrekking agents we’ve been working with are very professional. They’re very responsive and communicate with different options they worked out. They were supporting us even when we were already in the trails and very flexible to help adjust our lodging as we requested which is one of the things I really appreciated and also proves the value of using agents’ service vs booking and planning everything by ourselves. I highly recommend using their services in a heartbeat.

I'm pretty happy with the experience. It certainly simplified everything, I had no issues with my bookings, the refuges were nice and the maps were overall convenient. I had some slight issues with the maps on one of the days, and I know for a fact that other people got lost as well, and we found the listed distances to be inaccurate on some occasions. Otherwise I had no issues, and will consider booking with this company again! The price is reasonable too 🙂

We hiked for 2 days before we got hit with 17” snow. The views were simply beautiful. Bookatrekking.com was always helpful. This is our 2nd hike with them. They credited us 50 euros for each day each person for the Refugio not used yet. If you have a chance to hike the Alta Via 1, don’t miss out.

Everything was perfect, expect Rifugio Staulanza. Uniformly he hikers found the owners very unfriendly. The food at Staulanza was also markedly of lower quality than the other Rifugio's.

Komoot worked well. Only gripe I have is with finding transportation at the end in Croce d’Aune. It could have been explained better and on Sunday’s buses don’t run. The other group that used bookatrekking had the same issue. They thought they had accommodations at the hotel there.

good communication and excellent trek planned

We had a great trip! All the huts were booked with no problem and the hikes were great fun (if quite tiring!), and BookATrekking provided a lot of useful info prior to the trip. Unfortunately due to unseasonably early snow we couldn't make it to the last hut, but BookATrekking refunded us the cost of the hut we didn't stay in.

My wife and I decided on hiking the Alta Via 1 for our honeymoon. I reached out a year in advance to begin the booking process only to be told by multiple places that they were either full or hadn't started booking yet. My wife is a planner and wanted to have our itinerary set in stone as soon as possible. With that in mind, Bookatrekking made the process of securing refugios each night totally painless. We were somewhat concerned that, being a more budget friendly option, Bookatrekking would set us up with worse facilities. That was definitely not the case! We greatly enjoyed the lodging each night. In addition, our trip wound up being cut short by a day due to a freak snowstorm and the company was responsive and accomodating in taking care of us. We were both very impressed with the quality of the service and would definitely use them again!

This was a great trek; the rifugio bookings were seamless and the trail easy to follow

Great service and accomodating when we wanted to make changes to the itinerary.

Very good local knowledge about the regions. The Komoot App maps they provide are extremely handy. I began my journey at the right time when I actually got to experience the dramatic change of weather (from sunny to snowy) over a period of 4 days. All in all, I learned some important survival skills from this trekking experience. Would definitely walk the Swiss Alps again. As a suggestion, it would have been really helpful, especially for first-time or inexperienced solo hikers like myself, if the tour company could also provide some "Life-saving tips for solo hikers" and mention some safety measures and warn about potential danger in their hiking guide, especially for multi-day trekking. *** Mobile network coverage When you are out in the mountains at high altitude, you may be out of range or blocked from mobile signals. There was no signals at the huts. I only got coverage 50% of the time. Without Internet access, you cannot get the latest weather forecast. You could only rely on the weather updates from one or two days ago. *** Assess your ability and trust the weather forecast As your life may depend on it. Hikers need to make their judgement calls whether to proceed to the next stage at the start of each day as your trip at each stage may get progressively longer. Know your fitness level and ability to finish a longer trip. Can you confidently do 24km within 8 hours in these terrains? I did not finish all 4 stages. I am still proud that I finished stage 1, 2 and half of stage 3. I made a detour to Bergun on day 3 due to snowy forecast. *** Smart watch with turn-by-turn GPS tracking If you have one, you definitely should use it. Send your Koomot trip details from the app to your Garmin device and avoid relying on your phone during the hike. You can only send the Koomot trip details while you still have Internet access. On day 1, which was supposed to be the shortest trip, I was off course twice even on a sunny day! Thanks to my Garmin watch. It beeped me when I was 75 meters off course. In hindsight it could have been worse. Can you imagine what it could have been after two hours of heavy snow when the tracks are covered and waypoints become invisible AND you are still 2 hours away from the next hut? *** SOS device. I never had to switch on my Garmin inReach even once but it's always a good idea to have one.

Well arranged and great route. Directions generally good but not 100% accurate. Overall great value

Overall a good job, but they did initially have us going to the wrong refugio. But after contacting them they were able to correct it.

I had a great experience in doing the Tour du Mont Blanc because Bookatrekking provide me all kind of information regarding to necesary equipment, the ideal weight of the bag and how to train for the trip. Also, they made good reservations in apropriated auberges, located at good distances.

I had a great team, supporting me throughout the whole experience, food was good, guide was awesome!

The tour was excellent, impressive. The options for adapting to our needs were good. The choice of accommodation was not satisfactory in two cases. The B&Bs were good in quality, but we would have preferred to skip the 2 “hostels”. We booked very early (in February). A proper B&B could have been offered there. Hikers from other providers have had correct accommodation in the same village.

It was great!I really enjoyed the trip

All of the maps were very clear and I had no issues with chucking in or getting to any of the huts! Overall it was a great trip!

The adventure was great. We really enjoyed staying in rifuggios. I recommend this trek to everyone but I would like to emphasize the bookatrekking team. The were extremely helpful, kind and the contact was flawless. Nonetheless you get a whole ebook about the trek, what to bring, maps, itinerary etc. Seriously worth it.

Everything went according to plan. Accommodation was as expected and we enjoyed food variety on trek.

Very good prep info. Responsive team. Excellet plan and no problems at all during the tripnit self.

Bookatrekking was very responsive to any questions we had a long leading up to our vacation. They took care of all of our reservations and then provided us with an individualized route via Komoot app which was tremendously helpful! The itinerary, the helpful hints for packing, it was all so worth it and we would absolutely use Bookatrekking for our next adventure!

Overall everything was great but some tips to consider: hotel Cristallano charges to hold bags - we were unaware of this even after contacting to hotel directly. Their breakfast starts at 7:30am and most people will be trying to catch the 8:05 bus to lake braises. The bus stop is 1.5kms away from the hotel making this situation near impossible. We started our hike on a near empty stomach. Met other bookatrekkers who had a different hotel close to bus stop and a breakfast at 7am.

It was a really beautiful place to hike through. The organizers did a pretty good job of organizing the route, transfers, hotels and huts. Almost all of the huts have running water. What wasn't clear to me is how the baggage transfer works exactly and that I need to get back to Bled from Tolmin(They organized the transfer). I dislike the map on the app they are using, but the trails on it are good enough.(The height lines are so inaccurate, they might as well not be there). They give you a physical map which is really good. The route is in places extremely exposed and you get via ferrata equipment, but it isn't too useful, since the most exposed parts arent protected by ropes. It's doable as long as you're confident and concentrated. For me the planned hikes were good and I was able to do all the optional parts, but I left myself the option to not do parts.

All of the booking was easy and well done! Was my first time using this company. It made my first journey very easy to do!

Super experience!

The trek was all planned out on Komoot and absolutely no problems with the accommodation. I actually got a free drink in one establishment. I won't hesitate in using Bookatrekking.com when I plan further adventures.

Fabulous adventure! The landscape is amazing! We were given all the information so it was easy to get to the starting point, navigate the route. The only problem was the lack of sleep in the dorms, but it’s part of the mountain experience.

The Julian Alps Traverse is a stunning hike and the were sections of the route that weren’t very busy which was nice. There was a real mix of nationalities hiking in the region which made the huts lively and friendly. But be beware this hike is challenging. I met two different couples that had to cut their route short because it was harder than they were capable of. One of couples had booked this hike through another company but were using Life as the local provider. Other hikers I chatted with also mentioned the terrain was more challenging than they were expecting. While there were definitely some groups that very used the this time of terrain and had no issues. The distances each day aren’t usually that long but the steep gradients and rocky paths make the hiking slow and tricky at times (early in the morning the rocks are slippery from dew). I didn’t experience any bad weather which I’m very glad of as some parts of this route would have been even more challenging in rain. In storms there is no where really along the routes to wait out the storm safely. Either the information has just been updated or missed it, but the local company will make you carry via ferrata gear. While the routes are not true via ferratas there are sections of cables that you can attach to. The more challenging part is the metal pegs that help you climb but there is no safety cable that you can attach to - you need to be sure footed and not afraid of heights as there is a couple sheer drop sections. On the local provider’s website the hike is classified as easy to moderate but it also says moderate-challenging. Overall, there was really only one easy day of walking (3- 4hrs of mostly downhill). The timings and elevation on both Bookatrekking and Life’s websites do not match the reality or the information blooklet given in the briefing by the local company. Bookatrekking were quick to email and reply - very professional. The local company, Life were also quick to reply and had their moments of smoothness but there were also some frustrations. Initially I had to make contact with Life as I had nothing from them in the first week after bookatrekking confirmed my trip. I would have expected a welcome email from the company, Life, as a minimum, but preferably the information that I asked for in my original email. Arrival was smooth with the briefing before the first day of the actual hike. They give you a nice booklet with a lot of information but because it’s the night before you start it’s a lot to take in - would be great to be sent this as digital copy as well so you read before the trip, plus not have to carry the extra weight on the hike. My biggest disappointment was at the end of the hike, where a serious of little but frustrating things happened. First I was told to met my transfer at the bus station but the transfer driver was told a hotel for 2pm. The hotel I was dropped off (in a tiny village near Tolmin) had check in from 4pm and wasn’t open when I was dropped off. At this stage I was dying for a shower! The next day was a bit of a waste of a day with the train booked at noon but nothing to do in the village and by the time I got to Bled it felt like a good part of the day was gone and if I hadn’t asked (almost harassed) for my luggage to be dropped in Lake Bled, I then would have had to get a bus out to Bled Lesce to collect my luggage - originally this wouldn’t have been a problem as when I booked I asked which station I would arrive at and the office said this was were I was getting off the train, but actually the train station is on the other side of the lake, Bled Jezero. Considering the money paid for this trip, the end really should have been smoother, luggage dropped off at your hotel if staying on in Bled as part of the normal service. There was flexibility with the end of the trip mentioned in the booklet given by Life on day 1 but at this stage it is too late as everything is booked. Again, having this information sent upon the initial booking would be great as you would have the to make arrangements with Life that suited you. I did this trip solo, but if I were to do it again I would do it in a small group or pair. There was one section that pushed my limits and safety wise I would have preferred to have someone else around. Things to note - there are generally no showers in the huts, my first hut had one for €4 for 3 mins and the last hut had one but told me they were low on water so it wasn’t working. Also these days most huts had card payments for food and drinks and preferred card to cash.

Everything was well organized including all the maps and other information. I gave 4 stars because the trek itself in some points was very hard and I didn’t get information about it in advance and in some huts there was an option to private room and I didn’t get the option in advance to choose for it. Other than that all was good.

Great adventure. Day 2 slightly more challenging than expected and we had great weather with good visibility. It perhaps didn’t align with the description / Kamoot timings. The route itself is beautiful, the huts all fantastic and great camaraderie with fellow hikers.

The mountains were awesome, never seen something like that.

Bookatrekking.com services were excellent. Communication was clear and prompt. No problems from the bookings! Some of the Refugios were very sub par. Dirty. Bad attitudes. Terrible food. While others were wonderful experiences.

Laid back, supportive and eady to follow. Both before and after the actual journey

Very good communication through out the process. Information was clear and comprehensive. My only suggestion would please acknowledge receipt of payments. i had to email to ask for confirmation.

As a tourist in this area, me and my kids enjoyed a lot the organization and preparations on your side. The track was excellent, though unbalanced. One of the days was extremely long, and tough, without possibilities to cut shorts. Some cable cars are not working in the summer or stop early in the afternoon. 3 of the huts were excellent! Nice, clean, and convenient. The one in Zauchensee was not…. Even in Zauchensee there are better alternatives. Consider balancing day 3 with day 4, like moving from Waldgasthof to Flachau… We cut the segment from Waldgasthof to Sattelbauer by cable car and taxi, to allow time to finish the rest of day. The problem is that the cable car opens at 9:00, losing time in the morning. Last comment: day 2 starts with a 3.8 km steep descent to Kleineral. The last section is horrible to dangerous. Need to find alternative track. Overall - great experience. We enjoyed a lot

We had am amazing time visiting the Hochkoning in Austria. The trip was very well organized from start to end.

We had a blast! Great trip.

I was happy with the refuges that were booked. Everything went well and was as described. The komoot app was not up to date. There were several places it tried to direct us incorrectly.

I will give 5 star to Bookatrekking.com and especially to Ms Annemiek Meulenbeld for the fantastic and professional work by her and her team. We were a huge group of 24 members and we started to work on the project in August 2023. She was very patient with all my queries, which I had many, during the planning stage; as we were working with them for the first time. To accommodate such a huge group in one mountain hut was a challenge. But they manged to accomplish that huge task. All the mountain huts had proper booking for our group without absolutely no hiccups. The company also provided us with the detailed navigational maps, especially plotted for our group on Komoot and they all worked to the tee. We had no difficulty. The planning and coordination was actually tested to limit, as I, the leader and coordinator of the group got injured on 3rd day of the trek and had to be airlifted to a hospital; but even despite the leader's absence there was no problem with the logistics. So all the kudos to the team Bookatrekking.com and to Ms Annemiek Meulenbeld. I will recommend this company to anyone and everyone with my eyes closed. Best of luck and keep doing good things.

Easy and convenient way to experience Alta Via 1. No hassle with booking the huts. Bookatrekking agents were friendly and answered emails quickly.

Friendly staff, quick responses to questions, good use of Komoot

I liked that everything was simple and organised, the contact people from Bookatrekking were friendly and available, they arranged everything and communicated clearly. I really liked my experience with them!

De hike was fantastisch en perfect geregeld. Zou zo weer een hike boeken via bookatrekking.

This trip was a wonderful! It was my second one through bookatrekking and I believe they partnered with LIFE Adventures for this trek and it was very pleasant! We were given books, had a meeting with a guide who had actually done the hikes, and paper maps (along with gpx files) with highlighted routes were given. The hiking itself was beautiful. There was a fair amount of strenuous sections of hiking, but it was not constant. The Julian alps should not be missed!

Bookatrekking was a wonderful company to work with when it came down to getting my trip to the Dolomites booked. I love that they booked everything for me and all I had to worry about was hiking and getting to my Rifugios. I even booked another adventure with them for the Alta Via 1. They communicated with me on Instagram and even through email when they realized a mistake had been made on part of my itinerary. I can't wait for another hike with them!

It was very convenient to have the refugios prebooked. My main suggestion for improvement would be to provide more flexibility to add a day or two more to the trek so that the daily distance could be reduced (because of the extreme amount of climbing and descent each day). Also the packing list could be customized by month to reduce weight further in the warmest part of the season (we went in mid to late July).

The trip was great. All my Refugio’s were expecting me as planned. The hikes were challenging. Be cardio ready and hit the stairmaster hard.

Bookatrekking made everything easy and were great to deal with. Great advice, information and route guidance.

This was a very good trip, with lots of beautiful views. Couple of things: 1. two weeks of hiking with no day off was QUITE hard, and it would be nice to have a day of NO HIKING in the middle. 2. Most of the huts provide minimal breakfast (bread with 2 slices of meat and cheese) and it could be difficult to hike up. Bring lots of snacks to be ready for this!

The hiking trip Bear Trek was just wonderful. The Book a Trekking staff was helpful and friendly. We liked most of the lodging, except for two hostels (Lauterbrunnen and Griesalp). After a tough hike, it's not ideal to have to share a room with strangers, to not even have enough space to put your backpack on the floor (room could only fit the bed), pay for towels, have really bad beds and pillows, dirty bathrooms, etc. But all the other lodging was perfect though! Would recommend booking a hiking trip with Book a Trekking!

Good support and preperation

The TMB was awesome, the nature was beautiful. However there were some misalignments: routes on Komoot were not as punctual as it should be (I guess). It meant, that for example on the last day the route ended on the top of the mountain. And there's also another feedback: the planned routes were marked as "expert", however there were differences between "expert" and "expert" hiking routes which resulted that on one day the reoute was extremly hard and 2 of the group were really scared to do it. The bookings were totally fine. Everything went smoothly.

We have booked Alta Via 1 8 days and it was amazing. We have accomplished the entire trail and met amazing people. The guidebook was well prepared with all necessary details. The only thing I would add would me some more motivational details per day, something like “after the last ascent, there will be much flatter and easier to hike” especially for long days 🤞

We had everything that we needed for our first hut to hut trek and felt confident with the written guide and bookings that bookatrekking took care of for us. The price was reasonable and we felt like we paid for what we were wanting. We preferred a self guided trek and bookatrekking took out the guess work of making that possible!

The trekking itself was super nice. Beautiful landscape. However, I think the transfer and communication thereof was not the best. We ended up waiting appr. 40 minutes in Valbona for a pick-up. This was not too bad. After sailing along Komani river, we were told that we could get a ride from a driver instead of being in a bus. This sounded really nice, however we ended up waiting more than an hour for another family. Then we would rather have taken the bus! This was not a nice experience. But all in all the treks and scenary was really good.

My daughter and I enjoyed the hike immensely. The distances were achievable but challenging: which is what we were looking for. Met and made some great friends on the hike! All the refuges were very good except for Refugio Bertone which barely served any food for breakfast and was very unwelcoming throughout the stay.

Booked a trek thinking it was a group trek. Picos de Europa amazing but beyond my abilities alone at 63 years old.

Bookatrekking provides personal service and we had an amazing hiking.

My partner and I did the Malerweg trail in May 2024. The accommodations were nice, easy enough to find and with friendly hosts. The trek itself was absolutely stunning and I could not recommend it any higher. Bookatrekking made the whole process very easy and hassle free. Coming from Australia we really did struggle with communicating with people in a lot of the small towns along the trek. We found that English was not spoken very well if at all and our Deutsch is non existent. This was to be expected so it was amazing to have all our accommodations, breakfasts and bag transfers organised ahead of time by Bookatrekking. Thanks again for an excellent trek! :-)

Well curated selection of huts and excellent navigation support with the app Komoot. Answered questions by email quickly and completely. Issues came in when we were on the trail and needed to make some adjustments due to impending bad weather. Providing some back-up routes and options (chair lifts, train, bus) would have really been helpful and increased our enjoyment. These are readily available through various sources on the internet and would really have rounded out the offering.

The trek details were well organized with refuges booked for each night. The process was easy for us, setting our minds at ease. When we asked questions Bookatrekking personnel responded quickly. We noticed that our itinerary was very similar to several groups on the trail, including a guided tour, and enjoyed reminiscing with our new friends each evening.

The team is very helpful and responsive to our questions and requests!

Booking a hut to hut trip with bookatrekking was great. Communication was proactive and clear, and the plan of the hike was especially well thought out. What stood out was the weather and trail updates up to the start of the trip - it was evident the team was well informed and guided travellers well when the huts informed us that the route selected was recommended over those other fellow travellers planned or received from their companies.

The Peter Habeler Runde is a beautiful hut track through Austria and Italie on high altitude with great views. Bookatrekking.com informed us timely when a day route was not safe to walk due to heavy rainfall and shared alternative routes to reach the next hut. Great experience.

The process went smoothly for the most part, the bookings were made and I had no issues with them. Really enjoyed refuge la balm and les mottets (tmb western side). The maps on komoot were also nice, except for the last day going up to Maison vieille (I recommend that the bookatrekking team has a look at this as several people got lost on this day). Otherwise it worked well enough, and it was nice that you could download the maps for offline use. I truly enjoyed my trip, and booking through a company means that you will see the same people in all refuges along the way, share a room or be seated together for dinner, this was definitely a highlight of the trip for me! 😁

Organised our rifugios and route plans at a very reasonable price

Worth doing to enjoy magnificent views, great Rifugios and be at ease following the way. All part of the information package organized by Bookatrekking. Traveling with boys and friends, Bookatrekking makes planning easier and off-loads responsibility, while resting assured it will all work out just fine. The laking star corresponds to the last day trek (followed given Komoot way) which was below par.

Easy sign up, continuous communication, large welcome packet with everything you need, well organized. Can't wait to use Bookatrekking again.

We went on the treak of the croos de foc in Spain.the information and the data that we got from bookatrekking was all we needed. They always were available to any of our questions. We had a great time.

This company was fantastic. The package made the trip so much simpler and less stressful. Email responses to any questions I had were timely and helpful. I have already started looking to book again for next year. Thank you

The whole hike was so scenic! The accommodations were good and the food was good too. It would be helpful to have a more detailed written directions for the hike. It would be especially helpful to know if there are places for lunch on the way. Thank you for being very responsive to our email inquiries!

Beautiful scenery and helpful staff at Bookatrekking - I was not able to secure refugio reservations until I turned to Bookatrekking. I would classify they family friendly hike as a little more difficult than advertised but in some cases that was because there was still snow on the ground. Overall - I do not know many 8 year olds that would do well on that hike

A great challenge for me a 60yo not super fit who did the trek solo, This was my first multiday hike. tough, great scenery, always food and a beer at the end of the day, Thanks to bookatrekking for booking some lovely and unique refuges Met some lovely people along the way, already thinking of the next trip!

Another great trip with Bookatrekking. It was so easy to organise with the team, we even made a couple of late adjustments to the itinerary and they were really great at sorting it out quickly. The staff are really nice and friendly when I had a video chat with them. We recommend to anyone booking a hike and will be using bookatrekking again next summer!
