Eurohike at Stiftung Warentest

How our hiking tours performed
Hikers on the Rheinsteig

We are delighted to announce that in 2023, our hiking tours underwent testing by the German Consumer Testing Agency, Stiftung Warentest, and we proudly emerged as the test winner! Throughout this evaluation of hiking holidays, our comprehensive booking process, from A to Z, was thoroughly examined, allowing us to surpass five other hiking tour providers. The outstanding result naturally fills us with immense pride! In the upcoming blog post, we will provide insights into the Stiftung Warentest assessment process, detail the specific categories in which we were evaluated, and explain why our staff is especially thrilled with this result.

How did the testing process work?

Stiftung Warentest, with the assistance of several hiking experts, tested some of our walking holidays in Germany and reported on them in the following categories: Website, Travel Advisory, Booking Process, and Completion of the Tour. The most significant emphasis is placed on the tour itself. In this regard, the testers paid particular attention to the following categories: Booking process, information about arrival and departure, accommodations, course of the hiking tour, service during the hike, and overall satisfaction with the tour. Particularly noteworthy in the Eurohike evaluation was the reliability of the travel information, especially regarding the daily stages, and how easily accessible and clear they were through the Eurobike & Eurohike on Tour-App. The excellent quality of accommodations and the successful organization of the hiking tours were also praised. Similarly, the reliable accessibility of the service hotline during the tour received positive feedback. Beyond these categories, the evaluation also scrutinized the advice and search aspects, including the personalized travel advisory provided by our travel specialists and the performance of our website. As before, we achieved excellent results in this category as well: Testers noted the clarity and intuitive usability of the website as distinct strengths.

The staff looking after guests and luggage drivers are also part of our large team and do a great job every season. It gives us great pleasure to have our positive guest feedback confirmed by Stiftung Warentest.

We are delighted that our website performed so well in the test. In addition to providing helpful information about our holidays, we place particular emphasis on an efficient travel search function. The positive evaluation by the test participants is not only a confirmation for the entire web team, but also a great incentive to continue working on our website with the same enthusiasm.
