The first step is to schedule your initial private consultation and complete the itinerary form provided in the contact section.

During this session, I will gather all the necessary information outlined in steps A, B, and C. The aim is to thoroughly understand your requirements, ensuring your group’s needs and preferences are perfectly aligned with our local expertise.

The meeting typically lasts 2–3 hours. During this time, I share a range of available experiences, and together we analyze and compare destinations and activities. We address all questions and uncertainties, allowing us to finalize a draft itinerary with confidence.

SINGLE OR MULTI DESTINATION?

- What is the total length of your journey? - Do you prefer minimizing movement between destinations or exploring as many new places as possible? Or perhaps a balance of both? - is your trip focused around 1 activity and you don’t have a defined itinerary? - If your trip is focused around a specific excursion or destination, then let’s just plan around that.

GROUP DETAILS

Are you traveling with kids? Does everyone want to participate in the same activities? What are the skill levels within the group for each chosen activity?

FITNESS AND TRAINNING

I will assess each individual’s current fitness level and expertise in the desired activities. We will provide the minimum requirements and recommend training plans for those who do not yet meet the criteria.

Since every preference is unique, there’s no right way to prioritize the following three categories. The key is for each group to align their choices and plan their journey around destinations, activities, and excursions that resonate with them.

We cater to diverse needs—whether it’s a group focused on completing a specific excursion by foot or bike, a couple seeking the freedom of a self-guided road trip through the Alps, or a family opting for a serviced chalet in Crans-Montana to enjoy a variety of activities without compromising on comfort.

We’d love to hear more about your itinerary style and activity or excursion preferences so we can recommend destinations tailored to your needs. To get started, here are a few details we’d like to discuss:

- Do you already have one or more destinations in mind?

- Have you visited any of these destinations before?

- Are you looking to pair specific destinations with particular activities?

- If your trip is focused on an excursion, we can plan everything around it

Some prefer to divide their days evenly between outdoor adventures, local culture, spas and wellness, and dining, while others may choose to focus entirely on the mountains, with everything planned to allow them to fully immerse themselves in their preferred activity.

To ensure a seamless planning process, we first need to gather a few basic details. Once these are in place alongside the broader itinerary, we’ll dive deeper to create a detailed, day-by-day plan:

- Is your group interested in focusing on one primary activity, or would you like to explore multiple options? You can always enhance an activity-centered itinerary with a unique addition—for instance, adding a via ferrata day to a mountain biking itinerary.

- Does everyone in the group share the same level of experience with all the activities planned?

- Are there specific sample itineraries, mini excursions, or popular routes that have caught your interest?

It is essential to seamlessly integrate them into your itinerary.

Overnight accommodation options for excursions, particularly on more remote routes, are sometimes limited to inns or mountain huts. For those seeking a more off-the-beaten-path experience, sophisticated camping can also be an option.

Is the group interested in adding one or more of the following types of excursions to the itinerary?

1) Mini Excursions: Short trips with a minimum duration of one night, offering unique itineraries or condensed versions of longer adventures.

For mini-excursions based at a central hub, such as a chalet, we strive to ensure that accommodations align with our three levels of sophistication.

2) Excursions: Carefully curated journeys through the Alps, designed to explore an entire region or travel from one destination to another.

Once the overall itinerary has been crafted, we will focus on selecting accommodations, amenities, and services tailored to your group’s preferences and budget. In essence, we operate under three levels of sophisticated luxury:

Premium Hotels

Premium Chalets

Prestige Chalets

Both chalet options are available in configurations ranging from self-catered to fully serviced, complete with private housekeeping and a dedicated chef. Additional details to refine include chauffeur and transport arrangements, private guides, activity gear, and more.

During a second meeting, I will present a day-to-day draft itinerary based on the details gathered in our initial discussion. For some groups, this may be the first of several drafts, while for others, it is sufficient to move forward. We will continue refining the itinerary until it fully meets your group’s needs.

Once all details are confirmed we will proceed to make all necesary reservations, prepare all details and work on your personalized digital itinerary with all the information you need for your trip. This will include all accommodation and travel reservations, contacts, directions and further details.

The third meeting will cover all final details. We will go through your digital itinerary as well as the support apps used to navigate during your travels, international and national logistics and othe itinerary details such as the local guides, gear fitting, etc…

Here I will also confirm that everyone has the medical inssurance in place and will brief about medical and seccurty.

During your trip, an active concierge will always be available to ensure a seamless experience and address any situations that may arise. If you are traveling with me and our team of professional guides, we will provide on-the-spot assistance. For self-guided itineraries, a concierge will support you remotely via a private messaging app, such as WhatsApp.
