An Ascent to remember. - It was scary at first- the altitude, the hypoxia, the cable cars But the ascent was slow at first, then it increased in speed, and we all screamed. the view from the top was amazing. The cafe, the shop, and the movie at the top were all amazing. Highly recommend. the tour guide was amazing. Took us to Mer De Glace and was with us, all through. Thorough professional. Greek guy from Chamonix. Chamonix is a quaint town, with romantic charm. The view of Alps from the top was awesome!

Amazing. Would recommend. - The whole trip was amazing. From the point of boarding till leaving the bus when the tour ended. I'd especially thank to our tour guide Tony (Antoine) and the driver who made this trip memorable. I was skeptical in the beginning but everything went so smooth that I'd definitely want to book another one with keytours.

This experience is priceless - This trip is a MUST if you are anywhere near chamonix. The tour was seamless and communication was clear throughout. Chamonix is a beautiful place, I highly recommend the gold package, as the cable car was unbelievable going up the mountain, with incredible views. We unfortunately had poor visibility at the top, so our picture in the glass box was pointless, but luckily on the way back down the clouds cleared and we got to see the landscape. Your guide was great and gave us clear information and instructions. Have us plenty of time to explore

Well worth the money! - I have done many tours through Viator in many countries and this was my favorite by far! We were lucky to have a beautiful, clear day. I highly recommend doing the entire experience including the cable car and getting your picture in the box as well as the train to the ice caves. Do not be intimidated by the steps. They are not bad at all. Our tour guide, Chris, was amazing also!

Great trip but ruined by tour bus operator - I would not use this tour company. We booked a half day trip to Chamonix from Geneva. The bus ride there was great, as was the Mer de Glace. The tour guide(Antoine) in the morning told us since we are only doing a half day tour to return to the Bus stop at 12:30 for the return bus to Geneva. The bus operator kept scanning our ticket and arguing with us that our return ticket is not until 6:15. He made us feel like second class passengers begging to get on the bus in front of everyone. He refused to call the back office until we insisted, and then he begrudgingly let us on the bus. The two of us couldn’t even sit next to each other because there were no more seats available together. Although we enjoyed the bus ride to get there, along with Antoine, the return bus operator ruined our experience. Do not book with this disorganized company unless you want to be made to feel like a second class passenger in front of everyone else on the bus.
