Chantal & Max's travel services lived up to their mission of providing bespoke tours that give you the opportunity to interact with the true roots and artisans of Switzerland. We gave you a hard challenge of creating a Sunday adventure activity and elegant meal for eight and you delivered spectacularly. Additionally we had a short window of time to see and experience another part of the country, I didn't have the time or knowledge to research all the logistics and you made it so easy.
Chantal was our primary contact in advance coordinating the communication, options, answering questions and confirming logistics. This continued during our trip to Saanenland with access via What's App for questions that came up and making sure we made our connections. Max was our in person guide and connection for our Geneva 50th birthday celebration that totaled 8 people.

Right from our first touchpoint with Chantal and Max, our experience was very pleasant and it only got better over time! Chantal and Max designed our 2-week family vacation (our first big vacation after Covid) with a lot of attention to detail and ensured that all our family member's needs were very well taken care of. Switzerland has amazing experiences to offer and its people are truly inspiring. But we could not have discovered them without Chantal and Max.
The events/experiences chosen for our family were well-tailored and just right. They were unique and also gave us the opportunity to engage with local Swiss people and get a glimpse of their lifestyle and take a lot of inspiration from them.
Max's ability to engage us and work through any situation that came up is truly a key highlight of the trip. It was very relaxing to have Max give us the multi-day tour for the first 5 days so we did not have to worry about driving in a new country. By the end of 5 days, we felt comfortable in Switzerland and were confident to explore on our own. Chantal and Max had set us up with different tour guides for the rest of our trip who were all amazing.
The hotels we stayed in in different locations were simply outstanding both in design and service. Chantal and Max chose the rooms with great views. We could rest well before we began our Swiss adventure every morning!
The best way to explore Switzerland is with Chantal & Max! We are thankful to all the wonderful people we met who made our trip delightful!

Excellent isn’t a fair enough rating. “Over the top excellent” would be more appropriate. Our group of 4 worked with Max and Chantal to plan a 4 day adventure around the Lake Geneva (Leman) area. The sights are breathtaking. Max and Chantal attended to every detail and selected great experiences for us. It was certainly exploring many traditional sites but also understanding the Swiss way of life. Learning about Swiss winemaking, cheese and chocolate were highlights. Fishing on Lake Geneva was something we’ll never forget. And the B and B in Montreaux was something special. Can’t say enough about our 4 day adventure.

Let me start by saying - AMAZING! The level of service we received with Chantal & Max was unprecedented! This trip was special, as we wanted to combine our love (and business) of cheese and desire to see this beautiful country not as a tourist, but as something more more unique - personal, fully customized, and off the beaten track.
The service they provide YOU CANNOT DO YOURSELF - no matter how much research, planning or know how. They have not only the experience, the personal connections, but more importantly a level of service and ability to think outside of the box that transform your regular holiday to something magical. They hit the mark on every single level, and we will absolutely use their services for any and all future trips back to Switzerland!

This was our second trip to Switzerland where Chantal & Max created an itinerary perfectly suited to our travel wishes. We especially like how they work with local guides who share their historical knowledge of the larger cities and the very special artisans/craftsman who they work with so that we can learn about some of the things that makes Switzerland such a special country to visit and enjoy.
Thank you Chantal & Max for a trip that was even better than the first one.

Every day of our 9 day trip was planned with the perfect blend of magnificent views and uniquely Swiss experiences. There wasn’t a step we took without incredibly thought out planning and guidance. This was an experience of a lifetime and we cannot say enough about this dynamic duo. Chantal planned every amazing detail to a T and Max was so unbelievably on top of everything, so pleasant and fun to hang out with. It is a MUST MUST MUST for you to work with this company if you want a trip planned with soul.

I was in Geneva for work in November and had a free day. I decided to hire a guide to show me the real Geneva and the countryside. I wanted to be a local for a day. I was lucky to find Chantal and Max. They put together the best 8 hour experience you could ask for. I was introduced to some amazing people of Switzerland and “brought into their home”. Chantal was amazing at working with me to customize my experience then Max and I spent the day together. From touring a family owned winery and family owned cheese factory to one of the most amazing lunch experiences to finally just getting to speak with Max for the day and getting some of his endless knowledge of the area. If you are looking for the best I wouldn’t recommend anyone else. I travel A LOT for work and try to take time to experience all of the areas and these guys gave that experience in spades. Thanks guys!!!

Last month, my husband and I went on an 8 day trip in the Geneva/Gstaad area with Max and Chantal at the helm. They prepared a personalized experience for us and the result was a trip that we will never forget. It was 5 stars, top notch, flawless in every way. Max is the ultimate professional, he anticipated every need. From our day in Annecy, the private boat ride and lunch, to the Lavaux wine region and picnic, our visit to an amazing Gruyere cheese farm, lunch in a local’s home, our unique glacier experience, amazing lunches, food tastings, one of a kind visits, musicians, bike rides, our days flew by. Every day was something that we could never have planned on our own – and I almost always plan our trips. Run, secure their time. It is worth every penny. You will have a trip unlike any you have ever had. I only wish that there was a Max and Chantal in all of the countries that we visit.

Last month my husband and I vacationed in Switzerland. We did not feel comfortable just venturing out on our own so we enlisted the help of Chantal and Max Travel Design. This was the best decision we could have made. They created an incredible two week adventure for us. The trip was not only fun but also educational. They did not leave anything to chance; every detail was carefully planned. Chantal and Max work with great partners so no matter what part of Switzerland we were visiting, we were in the best of hands and staying in wonderful properties. They introduced us to Switzerland not as a tourist but as a local, so many of the places we visited and experiences we had were unique and unforgettable. The last three days we actually spent with Max and he showed us a truly magical time. All we can say is if you are considering Switzerland for your travels, you need to reach out to Chantal and Max. Thank you Chantal and Max for a unforgettable and incredible vacation that we will talk about and remember for ever!!!!!!

They planned the perfect honeymoon for my son and his new wife! The views were spectacular, glamping is still being talked about, and the food was amazing. Everything Chantal and Max planned was perfect! I felt like they knew my son and his wife. There was nothing the two of them would have changed. Thank you for above and beyond service and care!

Looking at the reviews, I would like to explore having you plan our trip for us :) we would like to do the following. Chocolate factory. Christmas market. Train rides through mountains. Snow activities. Maybe stay in alpine accommodation? We are visiting Switzerland for the first time. Kindly let me know if you’re able to plan our trip for us and what’s included in the package. Your reviews look great!
