Epik Tours
After doing my research I decided to reach out to Stephan about his High Alpine tour options. After a great conversation I booked the 8 day tour. All communications leading to our arrival, driving portion and departure were excellent. Stephan kept us on mark if and when I made a wrong turn. His support was spot on. The routes and hotels were top notch. My wife and I had a wonderful trip and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Epik and Stephan for someone who is looking for a similar adventure.

Amazing experience from start to finish!
From the first contact with Epikdrives to the turn in of our vehicle keys, the experience was outstanding. Very personal and responsive support before, during and after. Each detail of the tour was carefully selected and easy to follow. Our hotel accommodations during the route were truly world class and second only to the phenomenal views in the region. We definitely recommend Epikdrives!

Best Mother & Daughter Holiday
I am writing to share a review about a recent car driving experience that I booked for my husband's 50th birthday. It turned out to be an amazing mother-daughter experience as well! Stephen was incredibly helpful throughout the entire trip. The hotels exceeded our expectations, and he proactively contacted them to ensure all our requirements were met. He also provided daily updates on weather and driving conditions, which was very helpful. As women driving in another country, we felt safe knowing that our emergency contact was always on hand, as the boys had their own pace. And I can say thanks to Stephen I drove the Stelvio Pass !!!!!!! From start to finish, this was the best customer experience I have ever had. While there are many companies offering similar services, Stephen is definitely the best, and I highly recommend this experience for mothers and daughters out there. P.S. My Petrolhead husband said it was the best Birthday ever!!!!!!

Swiss Alps driving experience of a lifetime !
EPIK DRIVES: The Swiss Alps Road Trip of a lifetime! We just completed the most incredible 5-day driving experience through the Swiss Alps with EPIK DRIVES two weeks ago, and honestly, the company lives up to its name—it was absolutely EPIC! From the moment we picked up the GTS 718 4.0, what a car! Every aspect of the experience was flawless. The planning was top-notch, with every route winding through genuinely breathtaking mountain passes and offering photo opportunities that felt straight out of a movie. This wasn't just a drive; it was a fully immersive adventure. The hotels chosen were spectacular, the Porsches were fantastic and perfectly suited for the mountain terrain, and the team at EPIK DRIVES was professional, friendly, and ensured every logistical detail was covered. If you're looking for an unforgettable, fun, and beautifully curated road trip adventure, look no further. This trip was a total bucket-list experience that exceeded all expectations. Five out of five stars, easily!
