Ascension du Mont Blanc par la voie du Gouter

Myself and Joe made it to the top of Mont Blanc this morning! Many thanks to our fantastic guide Claudio…. Top Man! ⛰

Unfortunately the guide did not speak English fluently enough for us to have a good constructive dialog. We got more information from listening in on other guides when they informed their clients. It halted our possibility to plan and adjust our trip underway. The dialog between us, Explore-share and PeaksHunter was at times confusing and created some uncertainties regarding responsibility, payments and information. We will in the future try to go directly to a provider instead of going through a third party.

Hi, good service from explore share and peaks hunter, only some miscommunication on 2 or 3 days program, due to bad communication between you both. The guide was OK, friendly although non very experienced in the practice of pédagogie and communication, especially before couloir des Goûter s, there can be better briefing on security and also in general on the whole expedition. But he can grow by learning some coaching lessons. We did not do the final ascension due to bad weather, a proposal and financial compensation for 2nd attempt would have been welcome.6/10.can do better.

It was a great trip to Mont Blanc with Jon. He knows every stone, all ridges and crevasses - in general a strong, experienced guide. We were the first on the peak on Friday, 17th September, which was an incredible experience. Thanks also to Silvia who organized everything in the background from Aostavalley. Now I know how it feels to be 4810 meters above sea-level.

Not good news and therefore cannot rate any aspect. Due to the weather and unstable ice / snow conditions, we did not hike the mountain. I need to have an understanding of what is now to be done to resolve the situation as I have made 100% payment up-front. Thank you

As I wrote before (check the emails) there was a problem in communication between the square (client, explore share, peaks hunters and the guide) after I booked the mont blanc in 2 days I thought that it would be a good idea to do also an acclimatization day. I send 2-3 emails to explore share I text in what's app about that and they replied after 2-3 days... The automated text from what's app was disappointing and made me angry because I asked something and I got the reply would you like to ask something... Also by email they asked me about my experience which I had send like 1 month ago about the other trip... Finally I canceled the acclimatization day because of that and I feel sorry for peaks hunters because they have already booked a guide... I am not sure if I would recommend explore share to anyone.... Instead of being cool and relaxed I was feeling nervous checking my phone for an apply during my vocation... NO!

We absolutely had a fantastic trip towards the summit of the Mont Blanc. It is always a bit scary when you’re having a huge challenge and you have to rely to somebody you do not know. Our guide Paolo felt like a friend from the beginning and explained us all the things we did not know about climbing yet. Peakshunter organised everything that well, we just had to be fit and climb to the top. This was for dur

Finally I choose 3-day ascent . I had wonderful 3 days experience in Mont Blanc! The weather was brilliant and Guide was really reliable!

My friend and I had a great time summiting Mt Blanc! The guide was great and very supportive and flexible the whole time. A couple of things to consider 1. Make sure you leave at least 1 day available after your trip in case you need to move the dates around, we almost didn't make it due to bad weather but were able to be flexible. There are lots of fun things to do in Chamonix if you don't need the day. 2. The packing list needs some improvement especially to consider females - I would bring an extra layer just in case, thicker socks for summit day, ski goggles, hand warmers, very thick gloves, maybe even a foil blanket. Make sure you bring a thermos not a water bladder as it will freeze (we made this mistake!)

I want to post my review on Peaks Hunter Mountain Guides ( see below).I climbed Mont Blanc in September 2019 with Peak Hunter Mountain Guides. The service I received was excellent. They provided me with all the information I requested and more. Scheduling was clear and everything went as it was planned. My guide, Luigi Gagliardi, is a highly skilled professional. He did a great job taking me to the summit, providing me with all instructions and taking a great care of me. I learnt a lot from him. He is also a great person.

It started good, everything felt great all the way to Tete Rousse Hut were we did sleep. We was not tired after the walk. When we arrived I did pay again for as stayng there even though I did know that I already done it. That whas both me and the guide fault. Because he did tell me to pay and some part of me then though that; if they dont think I have paid, maby I haven't. Insted of showing them the mail I got. Did not get a recipt either so thats 200€ I will never see again I know. At 2 in the night at breakfast I was very exited about moving on. But at the table over guide teld us that it not was a good idea for as to try to take the top. I was very surprised about this. Because everyting felt so good the first day. He told us just because we did not have a reservation at Gouter hut he did not want as to walk down the 80m wall the same day. But way we did not get the chance to show what we can do I wonder? I guess he thought that we had to little experience and he did not want to take the risk. Still I did enjoy the ~24 hours up there and I did learn how to climb mont blanc. We want to try it again but next time we are quite sure we will hike it in 3 days and no guide so we can try it on over ones.

We went up to Gouter hut on Saturday, to meet the guide there Sunday morning. Unfortunately I got hightsickness and we had to cancell early Sunday morning without making the final ascent. It is a beautiful trip and we will definately try again next year. Thank you

Although last minute, Explore-Share we able to guide me to a company who provided a fantastic guide to achieve our goal of summiting Mont Blanc last week. Good communication and quick responses - they did a great job!

A great and wonderful journey. The contact with Peaks Hunter and their guide Alberto was perfect. Despite no one has been able to reach the summit of Mont Blanc by this way during the last 3 days before our climb, Alberto has succeed to open the way to give us the opportunity to reach the summit. Very versatile, experienced and funny it has been a pleasure to climb the Mont Blanc by this route with Alberto during those two days. Wilder and and less crowded than the Gouter route, if you are well trained and not afraid by some snow/ice walls it is a great adventure, gorgeous landscapes. I recommend to descend by the Goûter Route, a bit longer in distance but shorter in duration and less complex. you will get the chance to see new landscapes and to view from where you have started in the morning. Great journey, thank you Peaks Hunter !

Gigio was a fantastic guide and extremely graceful!! His knowledge of the mountain was superb and he did a great job making me feel comfortable throughout the ascent. Overall the experience was exactly what I was hoping for thanks to Gigio!

We had a great trip and it was an epic challenge but we only made it to 4400metres which is 400metres from the summit when we had to turn around as I became sick with altitude and needed to get down safely. So had to abandon our summit attempt. Gigio was a super guide and looked after us very well and got me as far as I could go but in the end the best decision was to come back down to a safe altitude and feel good again   We had an amazing trip and are not deterred from possibly trying it again someday but will look to acclimatise for longer next time   Thanks for organising our fantastic guide and tell him a big thank you from us  

I had a great adventure to climb Mont Blanc and summit successful. The two guide are very nice, friendly and helpful, I really appreciate them. They always keep the safely first, well done. The experience is very good, from safety, service and Mountain View. I will introduce my friends to come here. Thank you very much!

Many thanks for amazing adventure to whole team and especially to Giovanni Stecca very friendly and experienced guide who lead me to the top safe and sound. The journey was hard but well worth it!

Énorme expérience avec un top guide au niveau compétence disponibilité et organisation. Je reviendrai!!
