Fantastic trip!

This is a great weeks walking in the most beautiful surroundings and staying in lovely accommodation with great food

Most Inspirational Moment

Getting to the top of the peaks after a few hours climb to be rewarded with fantastic views The gondola cable car over the glacier at Aiguille De Midi was spectacular

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mark is a highly qualified experienced guide. He knows the area like the back of his hand and you feel very safe in his hands. He managed to keep us all on track despite having a very mixed ability group

Advice for Potential Travellers

This is a great weeks walking. The walks are not any way near as hard as I feared and the ups and downs were never too severe. Do take walking poles - especially for the downs and knee supports if you use them as a lot if our group seemed to do. I went up to the Aiguille De Midi on the free day and the while experience was awesome - I would definitely recommend doing this

Mont Blanc Highlights

This was my first trip with Exodus. They were well organised, helpful and friendly all the way along preparation. The chalet where we stayed was very cosy and run by an exceptionally helpful couple. The food was wonderful and the setting magic at the foot of Mt Blanc and her neighbouring mountains. The local village of Chaminoix was delightful with many restaurants. Shops were overly expensive. Daily walks were quite tough even for me an experienced trekker…. but each day was different with superb scenery.

Most Inspirational Moment

On our day off we took cable cars up to the top of Le Midi at about 4200. The views were breathtaking as the Alps spread near and far. Simply stunning.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Peter our leader was very approachable and knowledgeable as well as friendly. I was very disappointed and upset that he did not do more for one of our walkers who had a serious fall and fractured her tibia.She had to limp in pain and with tears for 4 hours to the pick up spot. At the very least the transport should have been at the bottom of the mountain waiting. There was no evidence of a first aid kit with basic splints. Peter didn't even know if there was a local hospital to assist..... NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take walking poles as parts are rough. Take knee braces if your knees are dicky. Good boots with ankle support are essential as is the capacity to carry 2 litres of water. Do NOT leave it til you get to Chaminoix to buy gear... much cheaper at home. A good hat and sun cream is also essential as the sun can be fierce.

Reply from Exodus

We are delighted that Joan really enjoyed her first Exodus trip and to see the range of positive comments. We were of course concerned to read Joan’s account of the way in which the accident was handled. All tour leaders who lead this trip have an International Mountain Leader qualification and first aid training, so we are confident they have the skills to cope with accidents and emergencies. On this trip a client injured their ankle, but it was not clear to either the leader or the injured person if the ankle was sprained, twisted or fractured. In hindsight, we agree that Peter should have discussed the option of calling a helicopter and that he should have had a bandage or splint as part of his first aid kit. We have addressed both matters for the future. The hospital in Chamonix has recently been closed although the A&E department has remained open, however Peter chose to check this with his manager before taking the client there for treatment. We of course always regret any accidents on our trips and we have been in touch with the injured person. Chloe Knott – Walking & Trekking Programme Manager

Stunning views of the Mont Blanc massif

As expected, the scenery is stunning. The walks selected for the ‘Highlights’ were great as they allowed for a good array of views of the Mont Blanc massif and the itinerary was very well paced. Everything ran smoothly and the group were well looked after by the leader and the chalet staff. Good food, a nice selection of local beers and a beautiful setting meant that time at the chalet was nearly as enjoyable as the trekking.

Most Inspirational Moment

I really loved the walking on the Courmayeur day. The views were amazing, there were mountain flowers everywhere and it felt slightly more remote. It was great to just take in my surroundings.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Very knowledgeable of the trekking that goes on in the area and you can tell that he has a real passion for it. He adapted the walks based on the weather and the group’s varying abilities which showed his experience. He also joined the group for drinks on a few evenings which was something that he didn’t have to do but was a nice touch.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Comfortable and suitable footwear is essential. Walking poles are also a great help for walking efficiency and balance. Be prepared for varying temperatures and weather conditions. The weather was mostly good but wearing layers that you can add/remove depending on conditions and having waterproofs will make the trekking a far more enjoyable experience.

Beautiful walks

This was my first trip with Exodus and to be honest I was nervous about travelling on my own. The trip was fantastic and one of the best trekking holidays I have been on in a long while. The guide and hosts were very welcoming and helpful, the group were friendly and fun! And the walks just stunning with beautiful with meadow flowers, chocolate box views, glaciers and snow capped mountains. After a hard days walking you come back to wonderful home baked cakes! This is a nice blend of physical challenge and relaxation, a great trip!

Most Inspirational Moment

Walking through snow on the final day of walking in Italy with blue sky and bright sunshine....lush!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Simon was our group leader.He was friendly, informative and fun as a leader. I felt safe and confident with him as the guide.

American in Chamonix

I am new to organized group travel and this was far more than I hoped for. The hikes were outstanding! Our guide and hosts were lovely people who did their jobs with knowledge and care, while being friendly and fun to be around. We lucked out with a fantastic travel group and near perfect weather. I am not ashamed to say that I cried when it was time to go. It was a beautiful trip and it was hard to see it end.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Aiguilette des posettes, was my favorite day. A steady climb with views that you could hardly believe would get better the higher you got. Also, the day we hiked in Italy was amazing. The Refugio Bonatti is a place i would love to return to. Incredible wild flowers all through the mountains.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Simon was a wonderful leader. He kept us on route, made adjustments for the group and for weather if needed. I enjoyed that he kept things silly and light, but never compromising the task at hand of safely arriving back at the Chalet for our next delicious meal.

Advice for Potential Travellers

I was a single american woman traveling alone, and this was a very comfortable and wonderful way to see more than I ever would have on my own. Don't overthink it...if you enjoy hiking just book it...it will be joyful.

Mont Blanc Highlights

Fabulous holiday! Good hiking, splendid scenery, central location, comfortable accommodation with very welcoming hosts, plenty of delicious locally sourced food, knowledgeable leader and great company!

Most Inspirational Moment

The view along Col Ferret (of Grandes Jorasses and Monte Bianco), the alpine flower meadows below the Col de Vosa .... and zig-zagging up, up, up the Brevent summit on our free day!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Great! He adapted the walks according to weather and group and is very knowledgeable about the area, knows his flowers and found marmots! Beware of his jokes!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared for the itinerary to be altered - even in mid-June this year the snow was too low to do some of the advertised programme. Flowering of the alpine meadows also varies depending on severity and length of winter etc but they are stunning if your timing is right!!

Mont Blanc Highlights

One of the walks was ordinary. Like a woodland walk. Because of snow in the advertised walk we were told. But could have been a better alternative. Apart from that I would have given an excellent. Guide, Simon, accommodation and meals were all great, as were John and Jayne who looked after us.

Most Inspirational Moment

Probably the trip to the Italian side with the views and wild flower meadows.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent. Not only was he very knowledgeable, he could also tell a good joke. Natural leader and helped make the holiday. I am going to book the Tour of Mont Blanc next year, mostly because of his information about it and, of course, the taster I have had.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You need less clothes than you think!

MONT BLANC HIGHLIGHTS

This was a really enjoyable week walking with a very pleasant and interesting group of people.  Our hosts Jayne and John at Chalet Chocolat gave us a warm welcome and provided excellent food. 

Most Inspirational Moment

Probably the top station of the Aiguille du Midi cable car.  The mountain views up there are fantastic.   

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mark was very good.  He led the group in a relaxed way, letting people come along at their own pace, which meant that I never felt rushed. 

Advice for Potential Travellers

Read the trip notes and walking grade before booking.  There were people in the group who were surprised by the steep ascents and struggled to do them.

MONT BLANC HIGHLIGHTS

Great walks…great leader…great chalet with very welcoming hosts and fab food!

Most Inspirational Moment

We had a week of mixed weather, ranging from full waterproofs, rain & low cloud, to blue sky, sunglasses and sun cream.  The 2 best walks were (a) through the Mont Blanc tunnel into Italy for a walk in the shadow of Mont Blanc giving amazing views, and (b) the walk up to Tete de Balme on the France/Switzerland border.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Nick was very good.  He modified the walks to take account of the poor weather conditions, and made the very best of the days with good weather.  He managed a group of mixed abilities well, including offering different options on the Tete de Balme day.  He also entertained us with slide shows of some expeditions he had been on.

Advice for Potential Travellers

There are many options for the free day.  We went to Annecy, which takes awhile by train, but which is well worth a visit to see the lovely medieval old town.  Also would recommend the micro brewery in Chamonix ;-)
