The whole trip was really amazing, challenging, scary at times, breathtaking scenery. Loved the camping and the bond with the team it gave. The leader John, was the best leader I have had, he was brilliant, would help any of the group at any time, no matter how big or small the problem. Very knowledgeable, and absolutely a natural at his job, I can’t recommend him enough. Claire the cook and ‘mum’ back at camp was also fantastic, she would always be there to welcome us back, with drinks and snacks and info on the camp site. Always a brilliant three course dinner.
The Telepherique from La Palud to Aiguille du Midi was a trip not to be missed, truly amazing. The whole trip for me was just brilliant, with such different scenery, from meadows, woods to snow.
Sorry just wrote that info above - brilliant, natural leader
Make sure you are fit!
Wonderful fortnight’s walking in fantastic scenery with excellent guide and support
Lac Blanc, going over Grand Col de Ferret in the snow, alternative route from Bonatti hut over Mont de le Saxe, the Bonhomme cold, Le Brevent, the flowers - but really it was nearly all highlights. First rest day took the cable cars from Courmayer to Hellbrunne to Aiguille de Midi on a clear day, an unforgettable experience
Excellent. Kept us all organised, gave us tips for easier walking and knowledgeable about the area. Good pace and well spaced breaks. Support in camp also excellent, everything well organised and fed up well.
Hard work with the long downs being quite hard on the knees but the paths were generally well-graded. Expect anything regarding weather, we had cold nights near freezing and hot days of 30+C.
In the process of booking to go to Costa Rica with Exodus ( staying in hotels) my wife saw this itinerary in the brochure. Somehow despite the fact camping is not our thing at all we booked the camping version. I think neither of us wanted to show the other that we couldn’t hack it. After the first couple of days of adjustment (it rained heavily, tired after the first walks, communal wash block etc.) we both really got into the trip. Are we glad we booked this trip? Absolutely! It was out of our comfort zone and we enjoyed it all the more for that. The camaraderie with our fellow campers was excellent. The group leader and also our base camp chef and logistics expert were enthusiastic, engaging and fun. 5 stars from us
Personally getting up a 500m ascent in under 55 minutes ( OK I admit I stuck with one of the veteran walkers to help keep me going) and walking in snow and snow flurries. Flowers, views, snow, a decent coffee in Courmayeur! Saying good bye to the group at the airport was surprisingly emotional and it made you realise that actually we had completed this challenge together.
Catered to every ability. Knowledgeable about the geography, flora, fauna and history of Mont Blanc. Spent time teaching us how to walk uphill, downhill and across snow in an efficient manner. Felt that he genuinely wanted to share his passion for the mountains and it wasn't just a job. Our Base camp leader was excellent providing good camp food and plenty of it. They made a good team.
My wife and I are over 55 and relatively fit but we didn't follow the recommendation to prepare for the trip by walking at home. We managed but the first couple of days were long. If you are not fit you do need to get in your walking boots and walk at home if nothing else to avoid the risk of blisters on the actual trip.
This is my second trip with Exodus and again they have surpassed them selves What a wonderful holiday I had on the tour It was a brilliant experience.Great walking Beautiful scenery, great company and great fun. The group really got on well and all were of a similar standard of walking which helped as no one was under pressure. Our guide John and Camp support Clare I can not say enough good things about them John was a marvelous leader keeping a steady pace( or as he said himself a plodding Alpine pace) so that nobody felt under pressure while ensuring everyone was safe and enjoying each days walking. Some days were tougher than others and we had some very wet days but Johns attitude kept everyones spirits high and we had great fun every day I would recommend that you be fit if going on trip as this would add greatly to you enjoyment of trip.
Clare the camp support was brilliant from cooking great food to pitching tents and alsway in good form and so
helpfull
I really enjoyed the camping but would recommend spending the extra to have a tent to yourself as the extra space means a lot especially living in a tent for 14 nights. Be prepared to help out around the campsite doing such chores as taking down tents in the morning Great fun in pouring rain….. Helping with wasking up and clearing thing away after meals THe food supplied was excellent and plenty of it You will not go hungry If you want a great experience great walking and great fun go for this trip I would do it again if I got the chance
All of it Great walking great scenery great group Everything about the trip Wonderful memories
John was a wonderful leader. He kept up a steady pace each day walking so that nobody was under pressure He was so helpful and knowledgeable and such great fun. He really helped to make the trip so wonderful as did Clare the Camp support who worked so hard and s was so helpful and always smiling
Be as fit as you can. Go with an open mind . Be willing to partake in every aspect of the trip If you do you will have a wonderful holiday great experiences and great memories
What a great trip. This was my fourth with Exodus and the best. Our guide Jef was amazing. He looked after everyone so well, great briefings, daily wrap ups and biology lessons along the way! Our chief cook, luggage mover and tent man Andy was great too, the meals he turned out of his little camp kitchen were outstanding.
The scenery is breathtaking, the walking takes solid effort so make sure you read your trip notes before you leave and train accordingly!
Loved the whole trip. Great views, lovely new friends and a real sense of achievement at the end.
In a word, outstanding. Conscientious, hardworking and very funny.
Read your trip notes! We had one very underdone person on our trip who got through only through the encouragement of the leader and other members of the group.
The Tour De Mont Blanc offers some of the most stunning mountain scenery that you will find. Exodus have put together an approach to the Tour which is effective and achievable. This camping itinerary keeps you embedded in the “great outdoors” – it is a real break from home comforts, which helps increase the sense of wonder at your surroundings. Make no mistake – there are some tough days, both uphill and downhill. You owe it to yourself and to the other members of the trek to be fit and well prepared. If you are, it will be tiring but exhilarating. Go for it!
At the end of a long, hot, hard day, walking in to the campsite at La Fouly at looking up at the incredible mountain scenery basked in the evening sunset. And taking that all in with a cold beer!
Our group leader was fantastic. He worked with a very disparate group of individuals with different levels of fitness and got everyone through the Tour. He was always solicitous for anyone who was struggling, whilst at the same time making sure that the group achieved its day's objectives. I need to add a word about the camp wrangler, Andy, who set up our tents every day and prepared excellent meals. Best care anywhere.
This is a fun trip, but it is a big trip. You owe it to yourself to increase fitness in the weeks leading up to the trek. That way you can concentrate on enjoying yourself. Nights can be cold, so a good sleeping bag is essential.
It was our first trip with Exodus but definitely wont be our last, we had an amazing 2 weeks of walking amongst stunning scenery crossing 3 countries with a lovely group of people!
Too many to mention, from snow capped mountains to beautiful alpine flowers and meadows!
John Briggs was a great group leader, professional, full of information (I now know how to identify the larch,spruce and fir trees!!), sharing useful walking tips and always there as a support to some members of the group who were maybe not as confident on certain types of terrain.
If you love the outdoors, appreciate beautiful scenery, are reasonably fit and have a sense of adventure then just go for it!! (a bit of advice - the purchase of a small umbrella is an essential bit of kit!!!)
The TMB trip was a great adventure – camping, wonderful scenery, great guide (Kim), fun group, laughter and fantastic memories. What a fortnight! If you’re thinking of this then just do it, it’s worth it!
The two "challenging" days; up to the Col de la Seigne and the Col du Bonhomme. Both involved longer days, lots of climbing and lots of snow. However we were rewarded with great views and got our best view of Mont Blanc at the Col de la Seigne.
Our leader, Kim, was great! She took an interest and had time for everybody, was great fun and honest about what lay ahead. She was great during our first day baptism of fire in bad weather and lots of snow! We're all fully trained to "dig our toes in", "use our poles" etc when we see snow now!
Make sure you're fit before you go. While the days vary in difficulty, added fitness will help you enjoy your trip. My knees suffered from the steep descents so I was glad to have lots of ibuprofen and some knee supports.
A spectacular fortnight spent amongst some of the more dramatic mountain scenery in Europe. The camping aspect added increased sociability and everyone gelled together as a group.
Too many to count - probably seeing Mont Blanc for the first time 'up close' on day two, a beautifully sunny day walking up to the Col de Balme.
Young at heart and heaps of fun, she did well to manage such a large group of differing speeds and abilities.
A must-do trek for anyone not wanting to venture too far away, you won't regret it!
Fantastic trek with a great group of people. The walking was enjoyably tough and the amazing scenery took your mind of your legs. The 2 Exodus personal, Heather and Neil, were brilliant. Neil’s camp cooking was better than the restaurants.
The whole trip exceeded my expectations.
Heather was bright and bubbly.
Do it.
