Alps and Beyond  specializes in active vacations of all difficulty levels in Italy and Switzerland, focusing on the regions in and around the Alps. We offer distinctive walking/hiking trips, fun-filled family vacations, and private custom programs in renowned areas as well as regions off the mainstream tourist map. We design each itinerary focusing on the smallest details, quality accommodations and services. We complement each unique program with culture, history, traditions, local gastronomy, exclusive activities, and interactions with the local people. Our extended family of extraordinary, professional guides help us assure a fun, authentic and memorable experience.

  • We work with integrity, passion and enthusiasm, offering trips and destinations that we absolutely love, and focusing on the regions we know best. Then, careful research, extreme curiosity, enthusiasm, spirit of adventure, spontaneity and a playful attitude become the powerful engines that drive us and our outstanding local guides to creating and running a memorable vacation.
  • We offer quality and authenticity, opting to offer less in quantity but more in excellence. We explore regions yet to receive the recognition they deserve. We research distinct characteristics and exclusive activities for each one of our trips in order to provide authentic experiences. Of course, we also venture into those “not-to-be-missed” destinations, but we do it with the same driving force.
  • We provide intimacy and safety by travelling in small groups, and encouraging family vacations and private groups. This also facilitates contact with the local people. Additionally, our collaborators are professionals with years of experience behind them. They know the territory, and their priority at all times is your well-being and safety.
  • We advocate responsibility and awareness towards the environment and the local people, their culture and their customs. When feasable, we opt for public transportation; we hike on official trails; we patronize hotels with energy-efficiency standards, and local restaurants committed to sustainable farming and agriculture; we purchase local produce.

  1. Reviewer: K. Davis located in Chicago, IL USA
    Touring with Alps and Beyond has been one of the best and most satisfying experiences of my life. From my very first hiking trip around the beautiful northern Italian lakes to my magical last (but not final) walking trip of the wine and hazelnut region in Piemonte's Langhe of Italy. This company and its fine tour guides have introduced me to some of the most spectacular locations I have ever seen and because of their impeccable pre-planning and their highly knowledgeable tour guides I am always guaranteed gorgeous accomodations, personalized care, and a vacation full of memories and new friends that i will cherish for years to come. When touring Italy or Switzerland, I will only ever go through Alps and Beyond. For quality, service and trips beyond the 'tour-esty' there is no one who does it better.
  2. Reviewer: Donna located in San Francisco, CA USA
    Alps and Beyond is an amazing company. Our trip was handled with lots of TLC and much expertise. The group relaxed and enjoyed the amazing scenery and hikes knowing that all the other details were very capable hands. Our guides, Anna and Bruno, made sure we all got up and over the mountain and had lots of fun at the same time. This remains one of our most memorable trips. Pure enjoyment. Our guides and Alps and Beyond are quite simply the best!
  3. Reviewer: Rosanne located in Chicago, IL USA
    I was introduced to Alps and Beyond by a friend. I decided to attend their group trip to the Piedmonte Region of Italy, where the wine is plentiful and the food is amazing. They have such amazing connections to the logding and restaurants, that the trip far exceeded my expectations. If we saw something while riding in our Bus, Anna would make sure there was time to stop and seek out additional adventure. I cannot really put into words the details and care that is put into every day of the trip. A MUST!!
