Description

Come and join me for a thrilling day of mountaineering at Chamonix in the French Alps.

Home to the First Winter Olympics in 1924, Chamonix is an amazing place. It is home to some of the most famous peaks in the French Alps. From Mont Blanc, to Aiguilles Rouges to Aiguille du Midi. It has a population of less than nine-thousand people. Hence creating the feeling of discovering something small and hidden. When you come here, you feel like you've found the X on a treasure map. And believe me, Chamonix is definitely a treasure.

Perfect for beginners and experienced mountain climbers alike, this French Commune has everything you could want. You can climb gorgeous ridges like the Ladies Ridge and Cosmique Ridge. There is also the Grand Perron Traverse that you can enjoy. You can climb one of the many Ice or Granite Walls. One of the World's Highest Cable Cars that links the town to the peak of Aiguille du Midi is even here. And there is so much more.

The scenery you will take in during the day will leave you mesmerised. From the aforementioned peaks, to other peaks such as Aiguille Purtschaler and Aiguille Dorres, to the gorgeous Snow Slopes that look like frozen ocean waves, or desert dunes of pure white. Simply stunning.

The beauty is so overwhelming here that you will lose track of time. The day will be over before you realised it has even begun. But that's okay because you can always stay longer and keep exploring all that Chamonix has to offer.

So come, let me guide you for a full day inside this mountaineering playground, where the rides were millions of years in the making and the views will take your breath away.

I'll be awaiting your message.

Mountain Guide

I've been skiing and climbing since my early childhood. I graduated in 2005 from the Univerzity of Hradec Kralove with a Master degree at the Faculty of Education. Since then I worked as a history and PE teacher. I was also running an Outdoor sport's club at that time, spending plenty of time climbing, skiing etc. with my students.

In 2009, I became a full time skiing and climbing instructor.

Licences:
2009 – APUL C ski instructor
2010 – APUL B ski instructor
2011 – APUL telemark and snowboard
2012 – ISIA Mark (International ski instructors association)
– MSMT climbing instructor and Mountain leader
2013 – entered the UIAGM mountain guide education
2014 – passed the UIAGM Aspirant exam.
2015 - Succeeded the UIAGM / IFMGA final exam

Spending your holiday with you would be my pleasure. Whether in winter on a ski tour (in Czech Republic or Austria) or in summer among the spectacular sandstone towers.

It will be, with no doubt, a very pleasant experience for all of us. I'm an easygoing, friendly and reliable person with a good sense for responsibility.

Don't hesitate to get in touch with me !

This review is not for Jan Novotny, but for Juras Sefl. Unfortunately communication with Explore share was very haphazard, and I got the feeling if I hadn’t established contact a few aus prior to our climbing date, it wouldnt have happened. No contact from jan Novotny who was indisposed and got his friend Juras to fill in last minute. Juras Sefl was excellent, reliable and took excellent care of my first time climbing teenagers who felt safe in his hands and trusted him. I wasn’t so impressed with the head organisation, as I say, communication and organisation was not optimal and I wasn’t sure what kind of service we would get. No communication with the guide. Anyhow, the overall climbing experience with Juras was excellent.

Guide: Jan Hais! What a great ski tour our threesome had in the Giant Mountains in the spring of 2022, with our guide Jan Hais. The weather was great, as was the culture of alpine huts and mountain lore in the land of the giant, Krkonoše. But the trip was really pulled together in such a successful way by the skill of our guide. He was an expert at understanding our needs. We were strong and experienced in some ways, yet less so in others, particularly in the use of alpine touring gear. Jan expertly knew when to give us room to roam, yet to jump into help when we needed it. Excellent! We did seem to fall through the cracks a little in pre-trip communications—not our guide’s fault. However, Jan listened empathetically to our concerns and his professionalism reassured us. Thank you, Jan Hais. Thanks, too, to the team at Explore-Share for reaching out to us over our pre-trip hiccups.
