The Classic Collett’s Walking Holiday in Austria and the Italian Dolomites

Once again we have had a great holiday in the Dolomites staying At Chalet Angelo. You really have a great team all of whom go out of their way to ensure each person has a great holiday. The food was outstanding and office hour a great oportunity to meet other guests. With a great range of walks on offer I took advantage and walked alm(Read more...)

Me and my two sons had the best five days ever in the Dolomites, The organization was spot on , punctual and helpful. We stayed at Chalet Roch in Corvara , very clean and comfortable. The only thing we missed was the tea/ coffee making facilities in the room, that would have been great after a long wet walk! That’s only a minor point(Read more...)

I was part of a group of a recent 10 day walking holiday in Corvara. Via Ferrata was a "taster" for me and a thrilling experience. I would thoroughly recommend this holiday:)
The weather was great in August 2019. Collett's staff were excellent. They were very friendly, mature, experienced and well-equipped with people's & communicati(Read more...)

Although we have completed the online holiday questionnaire, I felt it important to send a letter of thanks.
We had such an enjoyable and happy holiday and our 11 year old was able to extend himself well beyond his comfort zone. It was very much the daily variety of activities which held much appeal. Your staff, and in particular, An(Read more...)

We booked a 2 night, 3 day 'difficult' hut-to-hut trek with Collett's and had a great time. The whole trip was well orgnaised and we loved the rifugios. Materials (maps, FAQs, etc) were provided well in advance.

Everything about my Collett's holiday was incredible... from the service level I got when booking my trip by phone, to the quality of the chalet and food, and most of all the people who work there... who were all utterly fantastic.

I was recommended to Collett's by another hiking company, who said they are the best... and best-pric(Read more...)

Great walks in beautiful surroundings.
We were well led and hosted by the Collett's team.
Impressed with our comfort room at the Hotel Sonnenspitze. Good food too and the hotel staff equally warm and welcoming.
Thanks for a great break.

I had an amazing time hiking in Ehrwald. The walk organisers were fantastic, and catered to the needs of all group members, as much as they could. Nothing was too much trouble. Hotel sonnenspitze was faultless in my opinion. Spotless and the food was plentiful and of an extremely high standard. I would do this holiday again in a heartbeat.

We had a fantastic week with Collett’s in Chalet Angelo. The staff were really helpful (Max in particular) and the food was super (Tom). The accommodation was lovely and the views across the valley from the balcony each evening were amazing.
We had great weather and managed to get out and climb 5 via ferrata during our week, includin(Read more...)

My husband and I have returned from yet another fantastic holiday with Collett's. Outstanding location in Erhwald Austria. Colett's staff team were excellent in their local knowledge of walks and various other pursuits as well as ensuring all guests expectations were met. A fantastic team thank you Kate Ben Anna and Andy for the chal(Read more...)

I can not praise this holiday highly enough. The leaders, Andy Anna Kate and Ben, were outstanding. The hotel was lovely in a perfect setting and with gorgeous food. The walking was excellent. Thank you all!

(Ps. A guided hutting holiday would be a welcome addition)

I wholeheartedly recommend this trip. The walks were varied & were challenging without being overwhelming. The scenery was breathtaking. Hotel Sabacos was comfortable & friendly & the evening meals were excellent, often local specialities & all made from scratch. It was a pleasure & delight to be looked after by Sandy, Jo & Ollie who (Read more...)

This was an excellent trip and coming back to work has been really tough this week however we do have several hundred pictures to edit and look back on! Everything went really smoothly your maps were clear and the Rifugios excellent although as a non meat eater I may well have consumed my body weight in cheese in various forms! Thanks(Read more...)

I had been with Collett's many years ago on a summer holiday in Arabba and their first winter holiday, again based in Arabba.

We felt the family deal for going in August represented good value for what we had at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, plentiful food at mealtimes. We packed in a great deal and the advice/ideas from t(Read more...)

We had a fantastic holiday couldn’t of asked for anymore maybe to stay a bit longer staff were lovely everybody was really knowledgeable and helpful!

Please maintain the unparalleled quality of your staff. They are always so helpful, whether at HQ or in resort, and it is always a pleasure to meet them.

Office Hour is a great idea - informative and fun. The most amazing thing about Collett's is what a remarkable group of truly exceptional young people you employ. They couldn't have been more friendly, helpful or obliging, and they were intelligent and fun as well.

Amazing views, amazing walks, amazing team (Tom, Max, Becky, Alex, John, Caroline, Ali and everyone else involved were awesome). From the moment I arrived to the moment I left the team made me feel so at home and loved it (best holiday I have had in a very long time) nothing was too much trouble and even after very long days the guys were brill...

The level of information provide before booking was outstanding and it was clear that the company really knew what it was doing. As the only vegetarian staying at the Chalet I was very well catered for by the chefs who provided some lovely vegetarian alternatives for me.

I will be returning for another holiday

Another brilliant Collett's Walking Holiday - we have done skiing several times and this is our second walking holiday.
The package hasn't changed over the 18 years we have been customers. There is NO selling of 'extras' in resort unlike other operators.

The operation is slick

The OUTSTANDING feature is the young people (and on(Read more...)

Our 17 year old son and my husband and I spent a fantastic 11 days at Ehrwald with Anna, Andy, Kate and Ben. It was our second choice but we're so glad the other Austrian resort was full as we had a fantastic time. Mixture of guided and self-guided trips, enjoying making new friends or savouring the landscapes on our own. I swam in(Read more...)

My daughter and I had a great time. The scenery and wildflowers were wonderful. Length and difficulty of the hikes was just right. I am recommending to friends.

This was our second holiday with Collett's to Corvara. This time there were 3 generations of our family. The booking system was easy and we sought advice from your office in helping to decide what accommodation would suit us best. The youngest at 8 and 3 enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere in the chalet. We gave feedback on the activities(Read more...)

I have been with Collett's several times before and have always appreciated the your helpful and informative approach. The staff are friendly and informative. The accommodation excellent.

Just returned from a fantastic stay with Collett's in the Pyrenees. The hotel was brilliant and the hotel staff so helpful, friendly and professional. Panticosa and the Pyrenees is fantastic. We did the self-guided option and the staff at Collett's - Jo, Olly and Sandy - were great hosts and gave us detailed advice which enabled us to(Read more...)

I stayed with you in the Dolomites last year and the hospitality of your "non-guides" was as outstanding as a remembered. Knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and just always eager to help...but none of it forced. A great combination with excellent non-guides. choice of hotel was also excellent with equally friendly and accommodatin(Read more...)

Previous year’s wonderful experience in the Dolomites. The customer service of your staff is what makes the hiking experience outstanding!

A wonderful introduction to Collett's who had been recommended by several friends over the years. It is a shame it has taken us so long. All the staff were unfailingly helpful and full of good advice, from both head office and once out in Corvara, on additions/alterations to our planned routes between huts as some in our group wanted (Read more...)

We always have good holidays with you. We don’t have to plan routes or think about the walking, we can just go to the hotel, Do the walks, relax and enjoy ourselves.

Have been with Collett's before and enjoy the freedom of choice available from booking to daily programme. Staff have always been exceptional. Accommodation and food excellent.

Another great holiday. All of our party very happy. It was our third visit to HV and on arrival felt perfectly at home. Staff were, once again, exceptional.
