“Overall, it was a good experience. The scenery throughout the trip was beautiful, and visiting Lucerne was definitely a highlight, such a charming place to explore with a really scenic route getting there. However, the skiing portion felt quite disorganised. We were only given about an hour for the ski session, and the schedule was tight because we had to head back to the bus shortly after. It also wasn’t clearly explained where we needed to go for the skiing activity, so we ended up having to figure things out on our own. Despite that, the day as a whole was enjoyable, especially the chance to see Lucerne and the…”

“Had booked online depending on what I saw on ads and the details of the trip.. But when I went there with my girlfriend we didn't even do ski as mention. It was 100%scam and they didn't want to refund for us after when I complain. The operate that we meet in Gorgeia said there's no ski till December. But on the website nothing mentioned. My question if there's no ski till December why they still posted it. Why they lie on ads.. You suppose to be more honest on your ads.”
