MONT BLANC TO THE MATTERHORN Fantastic trip, somewhat challenging but that's all part of the fun. Great sense of achievement at the end. Brilliant scenery, and we were lucky with the weather too. Very well organised trip, with an extremely competent mountain guide, who was happy for people to walk at their own pace whether that was fast or slow.
The camping was very civilised - the only campsite chores that had to be done were taking down your own tent and helping out with the washing up now and then. This made changing campsites each day hassle free. Laundry facilities were available en route - I didn't need to take as much stuff as I did.
The food surpassed all my expectations, and I am a fussy eater. Three courses every night of the best food I have ever had whilst camping.
Overall one of the best trips I have done - recommended!
A throughly good trip. The reason I haven't score it higher is my own experience (I became ill part of the trip-not caused by the trip!) meaning I missed some of the walks (fortunately as the region has good transport links I was able to do some optional excursions to make up for the lost walks). I would have scored it as 5 stars otherwise. However from what I saw on the walks I did do the landscape is stunning and the campsites are well placed and comfortable. The group was highly sociable as you expect from most trips by this tour company. Any person who likes walking/trekking holidays should do the Tour Du Mount Blanc.
Gustavo was incredible. His knowledge on each country and his experiences were obvious as he guided us through. Honestly such a legend and deserves a massive thank you and appreciation.
