“This is my second time joining a trek with Salamander Adventures, and this time we did the Dolomites Traverse. Once again, I was truly impressed by the thoughtful arrangements and seamless organization. Special thanks to Stiina, our amazing guide — knowledgeable, caring, and always full of positive energy. She led the group with calm confidence, kept our spirits high even during challenging climbs, and made everyone feel safe and supported. Her deep knowledge of the region, combined with her warm and engaging personality, truly elevated the entire experience. She had a wonderful way of connecting with everyone in the group, creating a strong sense of team spirit and fun from day one. The route was breathtaking, and every detail was handled with great professionalism. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide — thank you, Stiina, for making this journey unforgettable!”

“I appreciated hiking the route clockwise since most groups were counter clockwise. The lodgings were largely lovely and service at them good. Customer service/support from Salamander was good, not excellent.”

“Communication is very important to customers before such a trek, and during the long walk. Salamander Adventures was effective on both fronts.”

“I went to TMB guided hike with Salamander Adventures in September of this year. The trek itself is so beautiful and as described (level 3) in the description. The hotels and refuges were a amazing with breathtaking views and the food was delicious (also took care of my food restrictions). Our guide, Denis, was very knowledgeable of the trails. He always made sure the group was together and checked on everyone time to time. He was there to answer any questions we had and made our experience even better! I alreadyhave booked another tour with Salamander again and looking forward to it!”

“This was our third trip with Salamander and, once again, it did not disappoint. Views and vistas that were amazing. It was a perfect blend of huttes and hotels which were all fantastic. Nigel, another great Salamander guide, was professional and entertaining. Phil and his team have done it again!”

“The Austria Lichtenstein trek 2024 was a wonderful trek. Beautiful scenery, from green meadows to more rugged mountain terrain. Nigel, our leader, expertly led this trek. I highly recommend Salamander Adventures.”

“Hi Phil, A very enjoyable walking holiday through a variety of stunning scenery led by a highly competent and friendly guide. Accommodation and food excellent throughout. I know you have already made the suggested changes to accommodation at Feldkirch. Having completed two long treks in Nepal and then TMB, Dolomites and Austria with Salamander, I think my long treks days with hut accommodation maybe coming to an end as I am 75 next year, but one never says never! All the best Chris Peach”

“Excellent trip in Austria and Liechtenstein presented by Salamander Adventures. Good guide in Nigel who is entertaining. Lovely landscapes and a great group of like minded treckers, some of whom I had met on a previous Salamander trip.”

“Austria-Leitchenstein 2024! Fabulous group of multinational trekkers led by guide Nigel. Salamander nailed this one- so scenic , few tough days but overall a great mix of terrain- everything in between grassy meadow strolls, gravel paths, paved roads through Austrian villages, steep rocky ascents, cables and bridges built on sides of cliffs! If you are in good hiking shape this is a great one!! We saw Ibex, Chamois, Marmots and shared our trails with cows, sheep, goats and horses! So fun!! Day 8 was memorable- having lunch at the Alpspitz and then hiking with the use of cables with views down into the Rhine Valley and over into Switzerland! Hats off to Nigel for keeping us safe and on track, and entertained under all weather conditions(sun, heat, fog, rain, snow).”

“Recently completed the fantastic Austria & Liechtenstein Trek. Thoroughly enjoyed the varied and exciting terrain of the Alps. We had a fit, experienced and fun group. A big “thank you” to our super guide, Nigel and congratulations again to Salamander. This was an unforgettable and rewarding trip.”

“Our group of 4 completed the Tour Du Mont Blanc in September 2024 with Denis (our guide) through Salamander (11 days with 1 day break). We had a great time, enjoyed the arranged accommodations and food. The best part of the package was our guide Denis - he was extremely knowledgeable, attentive and personable. He had to deal with some challenges with our group, but to his credit he tackled them with flare and professionalism. He took care of us and ensured our spirits were high and all were having a good time even though he was under the weather himself. Thank you Denis!”

“Just finished the TMB with Denis as our guide. This was our second trek with Salamander Adventures. Last year we hiked Amalfi Coast. Denis is an amazing guide. Lots of history explained as we hiked. Denis did a great job of keeping the group together and energized. He was very good about explaining what our terrain was like each day and kept us on a reasonable schedule. He’s also very enthusiastic and one can tell he loves his job. We plan to do another trip with Salamander in the future.”

“I recently completed the Austria/Lichenstein trek and I highly recommend. We had a great group of trekkers and were led by Nigel who was great with ensuring safety and bringing humor to the group. Scenery was spectacular. We had a fun day of hiking with cables, sometimes walked along a forest path and another day had one foot in Austria and another in Lichtenstein! Lodging included 2 hotels with spas which were nice. There was a good balance of hotels and huts. Salamander tours again did not disappoint.”

“Just returned from a fantastic TMB. Dennis, our guide, really made the whole trip both fun, enjoyable and safe. He made sure that he was checking in with everyone and meeting individual needs while at the same time ensuring that we worked well as a group. He had an incredible knowledge not only of the TMB but the flora, fauna and history of the various countries that we walked through. All the hotels and hostels were a very good standard and the food was delicious (catered very well for me as a pescatarian). Would definitely book with Salamander again!”

“I have just returned from the Dolomites Traverse with Salamander. The scenery was spectacular and of a scale that is difficult to describe. We had an excellent guide in Jasmin. She was capable, warm, friendly, fit and knowledgeable about the region. We experienced some very unseasonal weather for September. This included both snow, wind and rain. Our guide had to rejig the planned route, and we did not make it to one of the refugios because of the snow. All of the hotels we stayed in were excellent. The refugios were crowded and had more people sleeping in one dormitory, but that was part of the Dolomite experience, and I enjoyed those stays. The food was excellent both in the hotels and in the refugios. The checklist provided by Salamander in advance of our departure was comprehensive. Had we known we would run into snow and heavy rain, I would have added a few items, but we survived! The Dolomites Traverse is a challenging course with steep ascents and switchbacks. This demands plenty of preparation in advance and good levels of fitness. I found the descents more challenging than the ascents, and many of our group members used walking poles. The underfoot conditions can vary from very rocky to smooth woodland trails. The scenery is spectacular and makes up for the difficulty of the traverse. Overall, this was a very enjoyable trip. There was great camaraderie in our group of fourteen. We had an excellent guide. I came home exhausted but happy to have had such an experience in the Dolomites.”

“My husband and I completed the Austria – Liechtenstein trek and thoroughly enjoyed the trip with our fantastic guide and fellow hikers. This was our third trip with Salamander and yet the trip exceeded our expectations. We travelled through varied terrain and enjoyed superb views. Some parts were challenging, yet manageable. As always, Salamander attended to our enquiries promptly. Nigel our guide was superb in facilitating the trip and looking after us. We were very happy to put our trust in Salamander and Nigel. We look forward to future adventures with Salamander.”
