This is a very quality excursion. My wife and I did this together in late October, and the weather was perfect. There is quite a lot packed into this itinerary. We splurged on the electric bikes and it made for some very pleasant riding. The destination towns are well-chosen and each offer something unique as well as terrific cuisine. Each of the hotels were comfortable and accommodating. The Roman monuments and architecture throughout the journey are exemplary. And the scenery each day is literally right out of a Van Gogh landscape. The locals in this region were delightful to chat with and I was surprised with how many spoke English.
A wonderful week! Great walking, though quite hard work with a pack. You certainly need to be reasonably fit. Fabulous mountain scenery and every day different. The September sunshine added to the beauty. We were part of a lovely,varied group of people and had an excellent guide. We are already planning our next trip into the mountains!
2023 July Tour du Mont Blanc Camping Trek I had a fantastic time on the trek and made some great new friends. Some of the uphills were hard work, but the amazing scenery took my mind off it. We were lucky with the weather, most of the time it was warm and sunny. We had just light rain for a couple of hours on one day. Then on the last day just as we finished the trek and sat down at a local pub for a couple of beers. The rain started to hammer down for a while. I highly recommend doing the Tour du Mont Blanc Trek. I found the correspondence I had with Exodus before the trek was very good. If I had any questions they would respond to my emails right away. We stayed at camping sites in two men tents for the entire trip. The tents had plenty of room and each morning we were required to pack our tents up before we started that day's trek. On the first day our guides Kieron and Mike showed us how to pack the tents up. After a couple of practices it became pretty easy to pack the tents up. And if someone had trouble with it, there was always someone there to help them out. At the end of each day when we arrived at the campsite, Kieron would have all our tents already set up for us.
