My Way Alpine September 14 to September 25

I will see you in Salzburg! :-)

Looking forward to meeting you and our group and having an incredible trip! 🏔️ 🧳

I should add that I’m happy to share information if you’d like. I’m most familiar with Switzerland, having visited multiple times since 2021, and I’ve been to Salzburg once. The other tour locations will all be new to me.

As you’re new to the forum, you might not be familiar with the tour scrapbooks—there are some great ones for the My Way Alpine tours:

This is also a great resource for the Lauterbrunnen area, put together by a forum member:

I’m arriving in Salzburg a few days early and plan to take one of these Hallstatt tours—probably the full-day Sound of Music/Hallstatt combo:

I have another trip coming up in May that I’m focused on right now, but I’ll turn my attention to the My Way tour once I’m back from that one.

Thank you for sharing, so much helpful information! This will be our first trip to Europe (besides studying abroad/travel MANY years ago) so any and all advice is very much welcomed and appreciated! We're planning on flying into Munich a few days before the start of the trip. Enjoy your upcoming trip in May! Very exciting!

Hi!
We've been on 2 MWAlpine RS tours and LOVED them so much that we're going again this September for our 3rd one (san the triplets this time). Our dates begin the 16th- However, we're arriving early in Salzburg so might see you! Do you know what your first hotel is ? We'll be at the Mirabellplatz.

We just returned from our first "traditional" RS tour in Belgium/Holland. I am VERY much looking forward to the Alps My Way, again!

Prost!

Hi Mitzi! Thanks for your post! Wow, multiple My Way Alpine tours! It must be that amazing you keep coming back for more! That’s too bad our dates don’t align but maybe on some future trip they will! Our first hotel is Hotel Hofwirt.

I have been wanting my husband and I to do this tour. Please post updates as I may end up booking it next year. We are not huge hikers, but love to walk in the countryside as well as learn all the history shared by the guides. We just finished our first RS tour this past week and loved it. It was "high energy", active and we think the 'my way' may be better for us to see all these beautiful mountains.

Hi mros,
My husband and I also just finished our first traditional rs tour this past week. I'm exhausted!! and I consider myself a relatively fit, late 50 something, active woman. As you may have read above, I loved the My Way Alps! The "hiking" is usually always trails and well-worn paths out in the middle of an open area. You can pick from literally dozens of 'hikes' and will definitely find one that fits your level of comfort. I only experienced 1 out of both trips of the Alpine tour that was beyond my comfort and that was simply because I accidently left the marked trail! It was completely my fault and I still made it through unscathed except for a bad case of stinging nettle on my ankles. Again, totally my own doing and avoidable by most who read the signage correctly :)

Mitzi,

How was the Belgium/Holland tour? We're signed up for next year and excited about it.
