Famke and her dog Olle are great companions to explore the Swiss mountains. On top of being very professional and knowledgeable, she is a very nice person! Highly recommended!

Famke is a very well prepared guide, who adjust the trip / tour to the level and condition of her guests. She is a pleasent company with a no-nonsense attitude and her very sweet and tough dog, Olle is really an addition to the company. Besides a nice hike through a fantastic environment, you can have good conversations, or just enjoy the silence and maybe (as in our case) encouter a gems or deer!

Hiking is about you, nature and hopefully someone else who loves being out as much as you do. Famke loves what she does… and you can tell. I would recommend hiking with her to anyone who’s interested in connecting with the overwhelming beauty of nature. Also… hiking is just a great way of meeting nice people. Thanks a lot Famke! See you soon!

A super mountain guide who can guide you around the mountains safely. Olle, her dog was very welcoming to my dog too when we both joined for a Thursday morning hike. I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a nice way to spend time in nature

In the summer of 2023 I did the Tour de Mont Fallère. I had no experience with walking in the mountains and it was the first time I did a hut-to-hut tour, but it was a perfect introduction into the world of hiking. It was a beautiful tour with breathtaking views of the high peaks in the Italian and Swiss Alps. The landscape was amazing and at the end of the day cozy huts with comforting Italian food awaited us. All of this organized by Famke, who is not only a very experienced and professional mountain guide but also good company together with Woody

Last summer, Famke took me on a trek of discovery. My first steps in the mountains followed the Tour des Muverans. It was a magnificent trek with a different landscape every day, and Famke guided me along the most beautiful paths and to the best huts. With a combination of knowledge, wisdom, and humour, she taught me the basics of being in the mountains. It was wonderful! Thank you, Fam, I’m already planning my next trip!

Famke is an amazing Mountain Leader! Famke and her dog Woody are the best team to guide you through the mountains. Famke took us to the most amazing spots where we spent the night under the stars. She really knows and loves the mountains and makes sure that there is a good balance between relaxation and stamina

I just spent a few wonderful days hiking in the mountains with Famke again. She always finds the most beautiful trails with few people and adjusts the hikes to match the fitness level of the group and the weather conditions. I’m also thrilled with the photos she took! I can’t wait for this winter when I’ll be going on a snowshoeing adventure with her and her lovely dog, Woody!

Last week we had a lovely trek with Famke and her beautiful dog Woodstock! Famke is so knowledgeable, friendly and fantastic company to explore the Swiss mountains with. Would strongly recommend her tours!

About the Tour des Muverans : An epic experience and very nice to share this with Famke and the other participants. We’ve created unforgettable memories.
