It’s a long day but there is so much to see an so much to do from exploring Mont Blanc to touring Chamonix!

A beautiful place to visit summer or winter. We did self-guided which was completely fine as the town was easy to navigate. A bit chaotic getting back on the return bus at the bus station as all buses show up at the same time for the full day tours.

Real feeling 🔝 of the nature. Mixed feelings of excitement. Had real experience of decreasing the oxygen of my body I felt the pressure through my body muscles and head. One of the best feelings and experienced worth to visit and I will come back again one day 🙏❤️

Absolutely amazing day from start to finish. I’ve forgotten the guides name but he was very helpful, friendly and chatty, we felt very confident under his leadership..

Although the weather wasn’t sunny, the cable cars were closed, our guide was very nice and we went up to mer de glace by train. Which was magical nonetheless. It was snowing and very cold. After returning to town Chamonix, the guide did a quick show of the main spots, food tips, and let us do and go wherever wanted. Indeed a very well, easy and enjoyable experience.

We had an amazing time on this trip to Chamonix but be aware this price is just for the transport and the train cost an additional £50 each. We went in December and the cable card was not in operation due to maintenance that happens for a few months of the year as well so be aware it might not be open and if it is will again cost extra. The mountain train was highly worth it though and the town of Chamonix is also very nice and much cheaper than Geneva.

Extremely nice guides and we liked having free time. The attractions being separate was confusing from the initial descriptions on the website. We still had a wonderful day thanks mostly to the two fun guides .

Average tour nothing great . Due to bad weather many things were closed so just charging 100$ USD for transfer from Geneva to Chamonix and back seemed pricy . Had to pay additional 30$ for the cable car. The chamonix town is small and pretty average . Most of the shops were closed to nothing much to do. Overall very average tour and over priced.
