The trip was exactly as mentioned in the description. The planning and execution of the hikes for all the days was exceptional. Our guide Sebastian was really experienced and helpful all along! We indeed had a great variety of local food in our lunches. The hikes were a bit challenging, yet fun nonetheless. Prior fitness before attempting this is required. I would highly recommend it!
From start to finish the trip was excellent. The guides, Claire and Celine, were exceptional. They made the trip what it was. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. The food was very good at the hotels and local restaurants. My only suggestion would be prepared lunches as opposed to picnic style. Too much opportunity for cross-contamination with people using their utensils or hands to take food.
The tour of Mt. Blanc was truly spectacular! The tour consists of a great mix of hiking trails on some of the most challenging terrain in the Alps with stunning views of Mt. Blanc, combined with kayaking and mountain biking. The tour operator did a stellar job organizing the trip and ensuring it was an experience of a lifetime. The trip gets a high rating on every scorea€”challenging and exciting daily hikes with awesome views, mixed with culinary delights, and cultural tidbits. The accommodation was quaint, the restaurants were carefully selected to provide a unique blend of local cuisine and Michelin quality meals. The collaboration between the operator and Chamonix Guides worked seamlessly. Every detail of the tour was thoughtfully planned while allowing some flexibility to changing weather and client preferences. We were fortunate to have an amazing local guide and a terrific assistant who made the tour highly enjoyable. The tour met and exceeded all my expectations. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great adventure!
