Company Des Guides Of Chamonix

We had an absolutely amazing experience with our guides, Erick and Chris. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful, making every moment enjoyable. I especially loved how they pronounced my name, Naseeer, with such care—it made me feel truly welcomed and valued. Their professionalism and enthusiasm made the trip unforgettable, and I’m already excited to book another experience with them in December when it’s snowing. Highly recommended!

We hired a guide for a snowshoeing day on the Mer de Glacé and had an incredible experience. John was very experienced and knowledgeable about the area and organized the day perfectly for me and my two daughters. I look forward to hiring the Chamonix guides for future experiences whenever I return to Chamonix.

Had an excellent morning snowshoeing for the first time in Vallorcine. First time snowshoeing but was very lucky to have an excellent guide in Francois, who was very friendly and exceptionally knowledge about the area we were touring

An exquisite sunny big powder day with our guide Julia made this my best ski day EVER!!! La valée blanche is a once in a lifetime experience. A big thank you to our guide Juilia, she was so friendly and fun to ski with. Amazing day

Fantastic mountain guide Martial Dessay, highly recommended! But also we like the whole service the organization provided, we could highlight Cindy B for the assistance and friendly, inspiring attitude. First of all we were advised which day to take for the run, and it is was real Blue Bird day. Another thing is the stuff of its partner shop for renting equipment was very very supportive and friendly. Finally it is just very convenient to buy both the guide service and also ski passes in one place, so the guide was already with the tickets for us. Martial wrote us in advance, also with patience answered all the questions by phone. He was in time at agreed place. I like his style of leadership - friendly but also very serious when it is about safety. Martial carefully explained all moments, was full of energy, and also shared lots of stories about Chamonix Mountain Life and Guides, but also information about different types of what to do in Chamonix mountain. Names of mountains, tips how to ride the clacier and many many other info. Very easy going person, clever, real professional, I consider myself as rather experienced snowboarder but from the very beginning of ride I started to consider Martial as our Leader not by title, but by behavior. Going to return back to Chamonix, going to meet Martial again in another free ride tour.

Our family did the TMB light pack option, there were 5 of us with different abilities and age from 30 to 75. Marie was so helpful in organizing our trip and customizing it to our needs. Our guide was Jean Michel Poupart. He was so wonderful in helping us with energy conservation and pacing, he purchased lunch and snacks for us daily that were typical of the region and managed to set up gourmet lunches in perfect locations that he knew about. We were able to learn from him about the geology and history of the area and about French language and culture. The experience overall was amazing and unforgettable. We are so happy we did this trip through Chamonix Guides and feel especially fortunate to have Jean Mi as our guide

We took an Ice climbing course and our guide was professional and super nice. We hope to take a few more courses!

The best, and by far cheapest, guiding company (cooperative really ) in Chamonix. Also, the oldest guiding company in the world. Established in 1821!
