Great hike, great tour! Our guide Mark was fantastic, knowledgeable, very experienced, accommodated our group’s diverse fitness levels. Many beautiful views and challenging (but manageable) terrain. As the tunnel to Couraymeur from Chamonix was closed (September hike) we took a different route days 1 & 2 which I think were probably not quite as impressive as the summer route. Accommodations (dormitories) were nice enough and food mostly good. Good communication with Alps Adventures. I’d recommend Explore Share include on the website clear language specifically stating you are carrying all belongings for duration of tour (I had to email to confirm this). If doing again I’d try to do their standard route (that required tunnel access) and beg for some sort of luggage transfer. Last suggestion is more timely transfer back to Geneva at end of tour- we waited over 90 minutes for transfer, which I’m sure was pre-schedule for that time (4:30 pm), but at the end of a 4 day hike one is pretty excited to get back to a hotel with super hot showers & real beds.

Wow what can i say about this trip, first off it was my first time trekking, the scenery was out of this world and the most important part was our two guides Grigor and Tom so professional, knowledgable and fantastic personalities i felt very safe the whole time. The trek is challenging but exhilarating at the same time and i would highly recommend anyone thinking about it just go do it and have the most amazing 4 days Big thank you for making our trip one to remember
