This is our second KimKim trip. We requested a train tour through the Swiss Alps, and that is exactly what we got — “in spades”! 👍👍 The itinerary was well organized, very detailed, and all vouchers were included. We also received guidance during the trip when needed. The train schedule was easy to follow, alpine sites were beautiful, accommodations were very, very nice, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Special thanks to Emilie and all the staff at Kimkim.

Hotel Reviews
Tralala Hotel Montreux
Montreux

Excellent staff and a very convenient location to the train station. There are a few food options, but since they don’t have their own kitchen, it’s better to go to an actual restaurant.

A lovely hotel with a balcony and view of the mountains. There is a shuttle that will deliver to the train station upon departure, it will probably pick you up as well if requested. We walked through town so we could get the lay of the land.

This was quite enjoyable. They provided a large charcuterie board along with six wine tastings. It was easy to get there.

Thank goodness for the detailed write-up for all the transport to the top!

Quality of Experience
A fantastic day. (We didn’t think it was worth the trip to Lauterbrunnen. It was very busy and not especially scenic.)
Transport
It’s a little confusing about which ticket to scan for access to the various gondolas but we just kept them all handy and scanned until we got to the right one.
