Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Greatly enjoyed our trip which was arranged by this France and Switzerland travel company. We were not open to one more van/bus excursion with little personal freedom to do what struck our fancy so the schedule was wonderful. Troy and staff set up great hotels and rail with more than adequate support for places to see and do and checked back with us frequently. We found his support just the right level for 2 who -- although not mountain hikers -- wanted to experience Switzerland but did not know how to do it.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

The village of Wengen, the Alps, meeting the painter Matthew Fletcher on the Gornergrat, the Matterhorn, experiencing the great Swiss Rail System, Basilica of St. Pierre and the Jesuit Cathedral, the charm of Chamonix in France and the French farm décor in our room, encountering a wedding party walking down the mountain to the cathedral in Zermatt, the Museum of Transportation in Geneva, the views in so many places, goats/cow herds going up to summer pastures.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

Would have heeded Troy's warning about too heavy luggage particularly when traveling on train, would be more adventuresome about hopping off the train and visiting some interesting towns along the way, might forego Geneva as a "been there, done that" kind of place next time.
