Climbing Mont Blanc

Mont Blanc is beautiful climb, due to a tight schedule a 2 day was the only option for me and while we summited the mountain it felt like we lucked out with a clear weather window. My guide, Mihnea was great! He looked after all the details and offered guidance with my basic mointaineering skills. I would definitely go climbing with him again and would recommend him to anyone!

I think mont blanc and Chamonix is an amazing area to learn climbing skills and would recommend it. My guide was very skilled and took all safety precautions where necessary and had great days in the Alps. A couple of points I need to mention, It isn't made clear what accommodation is required and therefore was trying to book last minute which I found disrupting. The other thing is what your fee covers isn't made clear .I had to pay my guides lift fees which should be included in the fee, so be aware of what's covered before you register.

We had a mountaineering trip with Jacopo on the Monte Rosa Massif. It was a great! Our guide is very knowledgeable and we learnt so much from him. He is also quite responsible and trustable, he made everything well-organized and plan the trip according to the weather condition. We will definitely rate this a 5-star trip with him.

We were a bit unlucky with the weather, so we didn't summit. But given the conditions, I think we did the best we could, we've scaled some smaller peaks and practiced our spline skills. Matteo is great guide, highly recommend.

Claudio & Jacopo are vastly experienced and clearly respected guides that did everything they could to make our trip a success. I highly recommend them both to anyone thinking of booking a trip such as this. They tailored our trip to match our groups ability whilst always maintaining a focus on our objective. I cannot recommend them enough. Fearghal

We were very satisfied with the whole experience. Our guide Matteo was very experienced and taught us a lot during the short trip. He looked after us and made sure that we felt secure even on the most dangerous stages of the ascent and descent. I cannot express enough how happy we were with Matteo's support and guidance. He was very professional during the whole trip and also very jovial and kept us a good company. His knowledge of the mountains and mountaineering is exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone wishing to climb in the Alps.

Really amazing trip of a lifetime the guides where really professional thank you so much

Mihnea is an awesome guide. He is very knowledgeable, great company and everything you would want in a guide. If I come back or do another route I will try to get him again for sure. Thank you.

Safe and reliable guiding services. Would strongly recommend if you are fit and willing.

Carlos was amazing! Great person, beautiful trip. Get in good shape!

Thank you for your supporting.Thanks to you,I could climb Mt.Mont blanc. I'm begginer,but Stephanes's advice and feelings are good. I wanted to know schedule in detail. Kind regards Hirokazu Hirano

I had a brilliant time on my 2 day climbing ascent of Mont Blanc. The guide was great and I really enjoyed the challenge of the climb aswell as the stunning views and scenery. I would recommend this trip to anyone who is thinking of climbing Mont Blanc and feels they have the fitness and ability to do so in limited time and feels they are able enough for the harder Trois Monts route. It truely was an amazing experience!

I might recommend to extend the trip with a couple of more days to make sure the weather dont stop you from reaching the summit, and also to enjoy being in the mountains.

The best trips I have ever taken! Andrea was a fantastic guide, very friendly and made me feel extremely safe at all times. I came in with no prior experience and he taught me everything i needed to know for the trip and went at my pace. The trip was well organised and ran smoothly. Would 100% recommend.

Excellent

This was an incredible experience. Carlos did an amazing job. He was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the climb and was great at getting our shelter and transportation secured all while making sure I was safe and having fun the entire time we were climbing. I couldn’t be more confident to recommend. If you want the adventure of a lifetime, high in the French Alps then climb Mont Blanc with Carlos.

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!

It was great! Unfortunately we had to cancel mt Blanc due to bad weather, but Gran Paradiso and Montviso (which we climed as an alternative for mt Blanc) were just great! Thanks again!

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  

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!

I met Elis and Silvia at Rifugio Teodulo, during one of their wonderful team trips, and I understood at a glance that they are really extraordinary people to hang around with. Their love and respect for nature and mountains fulfilled my heart.

Climbing in the Mont Blanc atea with Elis, first time climbing, had an amazing time, with a good learning curve through the peaks, very professional help from Elis, would highly recommend

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

Impresionante Martin....te hace alcanzar lo inalcanzable, con una sensación de seguridad increible. Un gran profesional

Une page superbe, intéressante, un guide talentueux, sympa et simple avec qui on a plaisir à partager notre passion pour la montagne. Merci Sébastien !

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!

Carlos is a great guy and knowledgable guide! Although we were unable to attempt to summit Mont Blanc due to weather, Carlos still ensured that we had a really fun and interesting trip! I would definitely recommend!

Carlos is a fantastic guide - he has over 20 years experience in the mountains and the right attitude: safety first, then enjoyment. His excellent local knowledge of the routes meant we could adapt to the weather and conditions. He also has the mix of being an excellent alpinist but also loving the scenery and wildlife. We had an incredible experience that we will never forget! This 3 day trip is a great option as you have a 'training day' to help acclimatise, refresh skills and come together as a group before your ascent! explore-share is a great platform to connect adventurers with guides and experiences - the chat service allowed us to ask questions first and work out the best dates for us

Bit more trouble with booking, it blocked amount from credit card two times. Guide was professional and made climb very enjoyable

We enjoyed this trip in the Alps very much!! It was an excellent introduction to mountaineering and the stunning peaks of the Alps massive. Our guide Martin made the full experience a succes; pushing us to the limits, keeping us safe at difficult rocky ascents, but also taking time to enjoy the scenery and the climb. Thanks a lot for the beautiful pictures too!

We found Kyriakos to be thorough, professional, even tempered and completely trustworthy. At no point did we notice unnecessary risk or exposure and Kyriakos’s professional manner shone through at all times. We would definately consider using his services again in the future.

3 days for beginners, 2 days for more experimented .. and depending on the logging, difficulty increases ... should be more visible .. Booking was made personally but not by the organization team Pros: - Andreas’s skill as a guide, impressive - knowledge of the mountain - calm and patience Cons : - preparation required from Tete Rousse vs Goûter .. better information needed - extra costs related to the summit .. food, lift, trains , ....

My partner and I felt so safe with Mihnea. Mihnea was very professional and listened to how we were feeling during the entire time he was with us. He is very knowledgable about Mounteering. We decided not to attempt the summit due to bad weather a few days before and Mihnea tailored another plan for us which we had a great time doing. Mounteneering was very physically and mentally challenging and I am glad we got to spend time with Mihnea to learn more about techniques so maybe we can practice more and then one day attempt the summit again with Mihnea. This is a great trip!

Because of not so good weather conditions we had to change the destination of our trip. Nevertheless Nicolas was very helpful with some alternatives and we ended up having a great time anyway.

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. For one who has limited climbing skills, it was gradual and exciting.

Everything was as agreed.

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 !

The guide is friendly and attention to safety. But the arrangement of such time and place is not suitable for us. The first day took the cable car at 1:30 PM and then take the train, stay in Tête Rousse refuge, only spend 5 hours total. And midnight at 2:00 Am started to climb to the summit and straightly back to the train station to catch the train at 5 Pm. It would take 15 hours. The physical strength of the two days was too unbalanced. In fact, I would not have these problems If we stayed in the Gouter refuge on the first day. My husband and I knew that will be a big test for us, but it doesn't mean we want to give up the climb to the summit. The uncomfortable thing is, The guide asked to go back even we didn't see the Mont Blanc. I am very upset, but the guide insists that I don't have a way to resist. My husband and I just slowly walk with disappointment. At 9 Am we arrived at Tête Rousse refuge, and slowly took a meal, slowly descended the mountain, and arrived at the train station at 1 o'clock, not 5 pm. We spent time and money to climb our dream Mountain, but this is the result, very dissatisfied of.

It was an amazing experience. Daniel Pobega was excellent. Calm, friendly and very professional. Will definitely book another trip with him if not Vallee Blanche but other future activities.

Thanks to Carlos and explore- share staff:) My experience with booking through explore-share and climbing to Mount Blanc with Carlos were fantastic! He is very easy going and flexible.

Great half-day trip of Aiguille d'Entreves with Elis. Felt in very safe hands all the way to the summit. Stunning views of the valley and of Mont Blanc. I only wish it had lasted longer!

Daniel was our guide. He was helpful from the moment we met him. We felt safe walking on the glazier due to his calm instructions, and his observation of us and the environment around us. We would highly recommend him as a alpine mountain guide

Très bonne expérience. Je la recommande sans hésitation. Une belle manière d’appréhender la marche sur glacier et ses possibles dangers. Le guide, Daniel, est à l’écoute et très attentif au bien-être des participants

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!

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

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.

Our guide Luigi was super nice. Easy to communicate with, and very easy to work with. I felt safe and comfortable the whole time.

It was a great pleasure to be in the mountains with Claudio. We climbed Mont Blanc, 3 Monts route to the summit, and Gouter route back down. He is professional as a guide, with lots of experience, but he is also a nice companion that it's a pleasure go on excursions with. I highly recommend him and if I could choose a guide for a future trip to Europe he would be my first choice.

Mauro was a Super Guide! I'll come back.

Awesome experience on Vallee Blanche, between Refugio Torino, Refuge des Cosmiques and Aiguille du Midi. Even though I have a lot experience trekking, this was my first time on a glacier. With Daniel help, everything went smoothly. Great guiding, I highly recommend Daniel. At the end of the day, drinking a small pint of beer, we make a deal, next year we go to Mont Blanc!

Fantastic experience from start to finish. Gigio was a great guide, with plenty of knowledge and expertise, also very patient. I would highly recommend for future adventures. Thank you

It was a great experience with a highly competent and friendly guide.

My congrats for such an amazing guide like Carlos. Talented, experienced, all full of easy explanation that made it possible. The most safety way to guarantee you getting yo the top. Thanks!

Great service, everything was smooth and I got all my questions answered very quickly. Gauthier linked us up with a guide that led us through different experiences in such a safe and fun way. I will definitely be coming back.

Great guide - mihnea was fun, placed a strong emphasis on safety, and also gave us advice on how to improve our climbing and alpinism!

Amazing experience. The guide, Daniel was very friendly and has adapted the trip to our needs.

Een indrukwekkende ervaring, zeer goede begeleiding en vlotte organisatie. De eerste dagen afwisselende trek en klimtochten om te acclimatiseren en gewenning te krijgen met omgeving, de gids staat open voor suggesties en persoonlijke voorkeuren.

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!)

Our trip to Mont Blanc with Carlos can be summarised with only 1 word - disappointment. I definitely DO NOT recommend for anyone to use Carlos's services based on my experience. He is not serious ,changing our appointments at the last minute ,then yelling and not supporting at all in the mountain,not being prepared with the weather forecast and in general seeming bored and not interested. I did not feel any support from his side and on top of everything he lost us in a snowstorm on our way down. Huge disappointment!

Carlos was a professional and committed guide! We had three great days. He was friendly and guided us savely up to mt blanc. i dont understand the one bad rating carlos got. In my opinion it think it was an bloody amateur which shouldnt have been on mt blanc in the first place. Let me say one thing. If you have no experience on higher mountains and in climbing in general, there is no place for you on mt blanc. train hard, prepare and come with the right expectation!

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!

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!

The whole trip was excellent. Explore share did a great job coordinating. Carlos is an experienced guide and effective teacher. I felt safe with him the whole time we were on the mountain. The weather was terrific and we summited just as expected. I highly recommend Carlos Vasquez for Mont Blanc.

Guide was extremely professional. We had a great climb together. If I were booking this climb, I’d book our guide, he was great!

J'attends le remboursement mais dans l'ensemble tous étaient super. Les guides géniaux. Une bonne expérience.

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

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.
