About us

Introducing Watse

WHEN WE WALK, WE THINK. AND AS WE WALK A LOT, WE CAN ASSURE YOU THAT WE HAVE PUT A GREAT DEAL OF THOUGHT INTO WHAT WE WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU

Watse, the agency that takes you closer to reality !

We have been leading our guests across tailor-made routes all over the world since 2014. Our mission is a simple one: to take you beyond the picture postcard, closer to reality, for the most intense experience possible.

If you share our philosophy, it’s time to get in touch !

WE BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE TO KNOW YOUR LIMITS

We have the same objective as our guests: to push ourselves and gain the satisfaction of achieving our goals.

We believe that it is by getting out of your comfort zone that you learn the most about yourself, your limits, and also your desires. It is by taking a step back from the everyday that you grow as an individual.

WE BELIEVE THAT THERE IS GREATER JOY IN SHARING

Above all else, Watse is a story of beautiful encounters.

An encounter with hikers, brought together by the same need to take a deep breath. An encounter with family and friends, getting together for a holiday. An encounter with cultures on the other side of the world. An encounter with oneself. Whichever of these encounters you are looking for, we would love to discuss it with you !

WE BELIEVE THAT WHAT REALLY MATTERS LIES BEYOND THE PICTURE POSTCARD

It is this philosophy that pushes us to avoid popular spots and do things differently.

That is how we can offer you a trip that gets closer to local reality, for a truly extraordinary experience.

In other words, you have a lot of (pleasant) surprises to come !

WE BELIEVE THAT WALKING IS A FORM OF SELF CARE

What counts on our trips is not the finish, or the summit; it is the path you follow.

Walking allows you to appreciate your surroundings. It gives you time to fully explore a place or a culture, and to feel its authenticity. By changing our perception of time and space, walking helps us appreciate, and often put into perspective, our place in the world.

With us, you won’t be chasing time, you’ll have all the time in the world !

Our job is fantastic and we do it with passion. To me, the most important thing is to enable our guests to discover new places and new cultures, and to interact with locals. Sharing our passion for travelling and exploring is, for me, what being a guide is all about.
