Beautiful Chamonix

5.00We booked a few days break in Geneva and had this trip recommended and it didn't disappoint. The pick up point was literally a minute away from our hotel and the coach departed right on time. The guide (i'm sorry, i don't recall the name) was great and was very welcoming and friendly. He actually lives in Chamonix. Unfortunately, the Aquil Du Midi cable car was closed for annual winter maintenance. This was the only disappointment as it appears that it was scheduled and could therefore have been pointed out at the time of booking. However, our passes allowed us to visit another peak across the valley - Brevent. We set off on a misty cloudy day but the guide assured us that we would have perfect weather in Camonix and he was spot on. It was a crisp clear sunny day. On arrival, we headed straight for the mountain train for a lovely ride up to the glacier. The views of the imposing peak opposite the station were amazing. There is a small cafe and gift shop at the station. Arriving back into town, we then headed for the cable car up to Brevent. it was a steep walk up to the station so beware if you take this option. We were straight on to the cars, no queuing at all. Once we arrived at the first station, there was a short wait to board the larger car to the top. You'll be sharing with skiers. The views from the top were amazing. And it was so warm up there. We opted to wait for a table in the panoramic restaurant to have a drink and take in the views. We waited almost 30 minutes o take tat into account if time is limited. I'm pretty sure there is a snack bar up there as well as we saw skiers sat on deck chairs enjoying drinks. That would have been a better option. After descending back to town, we had 2.5 hour free time to explore the town and have a bite to eat. The coach departed bang on time for a relaxing drive back to Geneva Overall, a great trip. Punctual, spotless coach, great guide and worth the price. Would love to go back one day and do Aguil Du Midi
Fantastic trip

3.00I really enjoyed the day and activities but for this price I expected to have more explanations from the guide and to have lunch included.
It would probably be nice if it worked!!

3.00The railway was cancelled - and this was the main reason we booked this trip The timing of the day was messy - too little time in the sun on the mountain and too much time in Chamonix. And then the coach was stuck on the snow at a waterfall that we didn't particularly want to see and have seen much better I really think we should have been given the option to cancel as soon as the railway was off
10/10 recommend

4.00Antione was our tour guide and he was excellent, very informative and made for a great day despite some changes in the plans due to Maintence being done on some of the trains. The town of Chamonix and the mountain experience was mind blowing!
A magical experience!

5.00Wonderful experience! Arman was a terrific tour guide - a really pleasant chap who spent the whole day with us and was determined that we get the best experience. The trip itself was just magical - there is no other word for it really, and will stay in my thoughts for a long time. Beautiful scenery in amazing locations, but easy going and relaxed at the same time.
Amazing trip!

5.00This was a great stress free day trip. Highly recommend and our tour guide, David, was wonderful. So knowledgeable and a fun and chill personality. Wish we did this earlier (vs the last day of the trip) so that we could have gotten more of his recommendations.
An absolute must to visit

5.00What a fabulous place to visit! Absolutely stunning! We done the cable car, really enjoyed it but did find it quite expensive. €168 for 2 of us but we did love it. The only negative was the moody man working in the cable car café. Mont Blanc in general is an absolute 100% place to visit. We had delicious pizza in The Irish Coffee. Coffee in Rose du Pont. Everywhere is just stunning!
