Simply the best guide! - The tour guide Niels is simply one of the best out there. He knows a lot about mountains, mountain climbing, and the local environment, so going with him was by far more enjoyable and educational than an average tour delivers.

Niels is nice. - This tour was pretty great. The tour operator was a young guy with experience on the mountain. He was extremely nice and knew a lot. The views from the top of the cable car are actually unreal and pictures don’t do them justice. It’s a once in a lifetime trip to the top.

Amazing - This was an amazing day. Niels is wonderful guide with a wealth of knowledge about this area, and life in Switzerland mixed with good humour and also keeping an eye on everyone to make sure everyone is ok. The gondola ride is breath taking literally as we felt a bit light headed at the summit but Niels advised us to take it steady and we were fine. It was -8C, but a beautiful sunny day, and he gaves plenty of stories and information about the mountains and took us to good spots for photos. Chamonix was a delightful village and we took one of his suggestions for lunch, and were not disappointed. The afternoon trip to glacier on train and another gondola was interesting, but a little but sad to hear the rate at which the glacier is melting. This was a fantastic trip, and would recommend everyone to do this trip with Niels

Definitely worth it - Brilliant day with Niels, who is a super fun guy, extremely knowledgeable and full of energy. Everything was organised perfectly and Niels gave plenty of local recommendations for free time in Chamonix. One of the experiences I’m sure we’ll remember forever. Thank you Niels!

Excellent tour and tour guide - Niels is a fabulous tour guide who took us to Chamonix to see Mont Blanc and the Ice Caves. Niels is personable and very informative about the sites we were seeing, as well as the overall culture of the area. The pace of the tour was very good. There was a good balance of structured vs free time (in Chamonix). The only snafu I encountered was with the actual booking of this tour. There is a Basic tour that brings you to Chamonix for the day. The Full tour includes the cable car to Mount Blanc and the train to the Ice Caves. The way that it is written on Trip Advisor was very confusing to me because both descriptions sounded similar. I had booked the wrong tour but Trip Advisor did help me make the changes. My suggestion is for them to make the descriptions clearer so people can book the tour that is right for them. When we got on the bus, it was apparent that others had the same booking confusion that I did. That being said, I would definitely recommend the full tour with Niels
