It doesn’t get better than this!
Just back from the most amazing week in the Alps. Breath-taking views on every walk. Level of walking requires some effort but very manageable. Our tour guide Tim was wonderful. Organised, patient, very knowledgeable about the area, flora & fauna and as a bonus he is an exceptional photographer so our group have come home with professional photographs of our trip. Caro & Sebastien run Chalet Chalupa & they looked after us so well. There were freshly baked treats to come back to every day & delicious 3 course meals every night. Honestly, I wouldn’t change a single thing about this trip & would highly recommend it to anyone.
Challenging but Rewarding
My recent trekking adventure with Exodus was truly exceptional. The hospitality at Chalet Chalupa with Caro & Sebastian was outstanding, and the support from our guide was incredible. Caro and Sebastian, the chalet managers, created a warm, home-like atmosphere with consistently delicious food, including perfect buffet to pack our lunches. The hikes offered a brilliant mix of terrains and elevation, leading to breathtaking views, which were wonderful to share with fellow trekkers.
Most Inspirational Moment
One of the most inspiring moments was undoubtedly reaching those breathtaking views at every turn after conquering challenging terrains and elevation gains. It was a true joy to share these stunning vistas with fellow trekkers who truly appreciated the beauty of the outdoors.

Our guide was an absolute gem. Their knowledge of the area, local history, and geology was endless, brought to life through captivating stories and insights. Beyond their expertise, they demonstrated a remarkable ability to tune into everyone's needs, expertly tailoring the path and pace to suit the group, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Their guidance made each day on the trail not just a physical journey, but also a deeply enriching experience.
Advice for Potential Travellers
I went in mid June and I packed for a colder climate than we encountered. The hikes were hot and I hardly touched the hat, gloves, and long sleeves I brought. Bring a hat, half the hikes are not under tree cover. I was very glad I brought electrolytes and a separate water bladder with me along with additional snacks and protein as breakfasts were mostly carbs and dairy.
Hats off to Augustine
No disappointments with the accommodations, food, transportation or schedule. The guide Augustine was remarkable. He is a gifted leader- his skills were first rate with communication, integrity and the ability to unify complete stranger into a team.

Agu was a kind, thoughtful and generous leader throughout our time together. He quickly assessed everyone’s ability and guided us accordingly. This was truly an incredible trip with the most breathtaking views I’ve seen. The accommodations were first class with home cooked meals by our amazing chef! Highly recommend this trip for anyone looking for a great time in the mountains.

Mt Blanc trekking was a bucket list trip for me. I could never have picked a better guide, chalet hosts and group to check this off my list with! Augustine, our guide, was amazing and fun. He planned amazing treks each day and provided excellent commentary. Carolina and Sebastian were awesome hosts, the meals were amazing and they were always available when needed a d gracious. Our group became great friends on the first hike and we laughed, joked and enjoyed every step of the hikes. Everyone was very supportive and entertaining! Thank you all for an amazing trip.

Augustine was excellent! He was well organized and kept us on track while joking with us. He was thoughtful, helpful and encouraging. Augustine is a true professional with a great personality!
BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!
If we could give Augustine, our guide, a million stars, we would! He took us on some extraordinarily scenic hikes, and expertly tailored it to our own individual skill levels. We appreciated that! Augustine created a great team spirit, and his knowledge of mountain and climbing history, along with his humor, added to the enjoyment! The chalet hosts, Sebastian and Carmelita, were utterly amazing. Their humor and generosity with their time and the excellent meals, created a light and fun atmosphere. It could not have been a nicer, more relaxed and fun experience.
