Despite unexpected illness we had a wonderful and rewarding trip.
Chamonix Tours
Chamonix Tours
Arguably the prettiest village in the French Alps, Chamonix is also easily accessible for any adventure, being just a quick plane hop from Geneva and a beautiful mountain train climb away. Perched at the base of Mont Blanc, it’s the perfect place from which to soak up the spectacular mountain views and peace and tranquillity that this magical part of the world offers.
On our Chamonix trips, led by an expert guide, you’ll get off the beaten track and find the silence of the winter forest broken only by the ‘swish, swish’ of your snowshoes as you move quietly through the mountains. Keep your eyes peeled for deer, chamois, hare, fox and marten, native to the region. In the evening, cosy up in your accommodation and savour even more regional specialities: fondue and raclette. Although Chamonix is famous for winter activities, its reputation is growing as a centre for alternative adventure sports, summer walking and relaxation, too. And it’s a great base from which to explore the challenges of the Alps, particularly our trekking tours to Mont Blanc.

Michael Cooke Mont Blanc Hiking HighlightsThe hiking tour of the Mount Blanc mountains and area around Chamonix was an amazing experience and adventure. We were very lucky with the weather which for the most part was lovely, but the variety of walks and views made each day a different and thrilling experience. The chalet was cosy and well looked after by our hosts Seb and Carol, who made us feel very welcome, and prepared great breakfasts and lunches to keep us going, as well as delicious cakes as a welcome treat when coming back from a hike, and very tasty and filling dinners.
Susan Houston Mont Blanc Hiking HighlightsJust returned from a fabulous week of walking the highlights of Mont Blanc. Great walks with our guide Adrian, wonderful food provided by Sebastian & Carolina. Stayed in Chalet Chalupa in Les Houches which was comfortable and the area was nice and quite away from Chamonix’s hustle and bustle. The walks were challenging for a level 3 however well worth it for the views. Lovely to come back from the walks mid afternoon to homemade cakes!
