Uncover the Alps in all their glory as you spend eight days hiking the iconic Tour du Mont Blanc. Following a circuit route from Chamonix in France, come face to face with dizzying peaks, glittering lakes and rolling pastures, passing through Switzerland and Italy on the way. Each day ends in charming accommodation, and your luggage will be transported for you to lighten the load. With a highly qualified International Mountain Leader as your guide who will not only ensure your safety, but also show you what makes this part of the world so special, you can focus on the gorgeous natural scenery!
Highlights
- Spend a week of hiking to the backdrop of snow-capped peaks, lakes, glaciers and mountain pastures – the Tour du Mont Blanc is undoubtedly one of Europe’s most iconic and beautiful long-distance treks.
- Sit back, relax and enjoy the view! Comfortable and clean hotels and lodges are included each night, offering hearty meals and truly magnificent views of the surrounding mountains.
- Take a load off – literally! Your luggage will be transferred between your accommodation each day, meaning you’ll only have to carry a day pack and your luggage will be waiting at your hotel.
- Soak up the beautiful scenery of the French and Swiss Alps with a likeminded small group of travellers by your side – every day brings a new gorgeous landscape! Think mountains, cable cars, vast green landscapes and (hopefully) clear skies.
- Focus on the hiking and the scenery, while someone else worries about the logistics. With an experienced and highly qualified International Mountain Leader by your side every step of the way, you can rest assured you’re in safe hands.

Such an incredible trip, highly recommend as an introduction to a multi day hike. Some degree of fitness is definitely required but everyone managed ok. The scenery and having great group to share it with was such a special experience.

My experience on the Tour du Mont Blanc trip was fantastic. The scenery was spectacular. The people in the group were genuine, kind, and well-prepared for the challenges of the trip. We had a great group dynamic. Our guide was first rate, a man in his element on the mountains. The food, accommodation and other logistics were great. We were very lucky with the weather which set the whole adventure into the realm of "perfect".

Amazing views & the best lunch breaks perched on the mountain. Dani is an excellent tour guide and his commitment to our group definitely added to how enjoyable the tour was and my overall positive ratings. As a tour leader Dani took the time to explain effective use of the walking poles, different strides & feet placement to use on the different terrains. Provided comments on the different vistas & locations. Certainly went over & above as a guide compared to any other hiking tour I’ve been on. Highly recommend as a trek. We were very lucky with amazing weather throughout.

Incredible itinerary, incredible mountains and people. The itinerary needs updating, elevation numbers are off, some of the accommodations are wonderful, 2 need reviewing. Make sure you are fit for 1000m gains in the morning!

This excursion was everything I hoped for. Incredible landscape, challenging but moderate physical exertion, great people, fun, and our guide, Danny, was knowledgeable and charismatic and really made the trip special. I would definitely use Intrepid again.

This was a journey of a lifetime! Truly beautiful in so many ways, exhilarating to reach all the summits, challenging in every aspect, and the most fun I have ever had!

This is the best trip I've been on in years. Every detail was taken care of by Intrepid and by our amazing guide, Mario. Hotels and food were great, Mario's knowledge of the region and natural environment were exceptional, the trail speaks for itself (every day is different and spectacular).

The Mount Blanc tour with Mario was worth every penny
07/01/2023
Trip exceeded all expectations. It was a spectacular hike, led by a skilled, knowledgeable, conscientious and completely delightful guide (Mario). Accommodations and meals were great. 10+ experience. Will definitely be using Intrepid again for future hiking trips!

This trip was amazing and i would recommend it to anybody. The hiking and scenery were out of this world and our guide's knowledge of the area made it even more enjoyable. A must do if you get the opportunity
08/29/2022
This hike is a trip of a lifetime. The spectacular scenery, camaraderie, and challenging yet fun ascents and descents crossing borders around this magnificent peak will remain with me for years to come. I can not say enough good things about this hike, even the rainy parts. Thank you, Intrepid!
08/03/2023
Incredible treks and even better views over 6 days of hiking. This trip gives the best of the Tour du My Blanc, includes charming hotels and great food along the way.
08/01/2022
Amazing tour with an outstanding guide! I would recommend this tour in a heartbeat. The hikes were challenging but so rewarding. The food each day exceeded my expectations and we all had so much fun together. We could not have asked for a better guide - Olivier made this trip! (But none of the hotels have AC so prepare for that.)
08/17/2022
A brilliant experience hiking in beautiful scenery. Olivier our guide was great. Be prepared for long days and extreme heat if you’re there in a heatwave! It was a shame we didn’t get to stay in the Alpine lodge and accommodation wasn’t always worthy of the price paid for the trip.

Our leader Bene and the diversity of our group made my hike the Tour du Mont Blanc an experience to remember
