Adventure Base Opiniones 

Booking through Adventure Base was simple and informative. Opted for Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc mountain climbs. Leading up to the trip Beth answered any queries I had regarding equipment in a timely manner. Once trip was confirmed we received more information regarding the itinerary and kit list. This made it very easy to ensure we had all relevant items before we arrived. Adventure Base provide an App for you to use to check off a kit list and also give you a full itinerary of each day your there.

When we arrived to the chalet we were greeted by Calvin & Lucy. Who were both very friendly and welcoming. We arrived early and they allowed us to leave our luggage in the chalet until it was check in time. Calvin & Lucy were great hosts and always made sure we were attended to during meals times. All the cakes that were baked were delicious! When we returned from Gran Paradiso we were greeted with a lemon drizzle cake! Just what we needed after a few days of mountaineering. The room we stayed in was clean and had space to move around.

Although we ended up opting out of the Mont Blanc climb, Fabio was quick to fill in our days with fun activities. We rock climbed, did a ridge walk and mountaineered around aiguille du midi. We learnt a lot on these 3 days and will return next year to attempt to climb Mont Blanc. Fabio helped us summit Gran Paradiso and I was never in doubt regarding my safety. Fabio has a wealth of knowledge and is a very very experienced guide. Fabio had many stories to tell and kept the mood of the group high.

Can’t fault the Adventure Base Team. They accommodated us at every step and made us feel welcome! I look forward to booking many trips through Adventure Base over the coming years.

Thank you Adventure Base Team for making lifelong memories!

I did the Grand Paradiso and Mont Blanc trip with Adventure Base and it has been an awesome adventure! Our basecamp legends (Lucy and Calvin) looked after us very well( those cakes were amazing) and our guides Fabio and David did their best to make sure we have an unforgettable experience!

Brilliant service. No complaints

I had a great experience with Adventure Base. The response quick to my question emails/texts and organised the TMB according to my needs. They went beyond in the expected service. Last day they even brought my luggage to my hotel. Those extra things made a difference.

Not the first time used adventure base, their guides are very good, the support staff get things done. Would use again. Thanks

Just back from Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc trek. An absolutely incredible if brutal experience! Shout out to our guides Alessandro on Gran Paradiso, David and Nacho on Mont Blanc - without whose knowledge, experience and encouragement we never would have made it to the summit. Smooth organisation with Adventure Base, would definitely recommend.

Excellent route plan, reservations all secured, very good support. Only issue was the FATMAP app

Our TMB experience was incredible and the staff at Adventure Base did an excellent job arranging the whole thing. We found their app to be a very useful tool both before and during the trip. The suggested kit list was spot on - we felt very prepared for all that we encountered. The suggested amount of time spent on the trail was somewhat ambitious for our group, as we stopped often for pictures and coffees, but we quickly were able to gauge what our actual expected travel time would be each day. Our evening accommodations were superb and we woke each day refreshed and ready to hit the trail again. The only suggestion I have is that people (especially those who move a bit on the slower side) might want to pack a lunch, or at least a somewhat substantial snack, every day. We were unable to get lunch at the refuges on 2 separate occasions, once because we hadn’t made a reservation (we didn’t know we needed one), and once because we arrived a short while after the kitchen had closed. Overall we had an amazing experience, and would recommend this tour, booked through Adventure Base, to anyone. Thanks!

I signed up for the Mont Blanc trip with Adventure Base, it was great, lots of information was shared before hand with a clear itinerary and great guides. It was hard work and you need to be physically very fit but saying that no previous mountaineering experience required is perhaps a little misleading.

Just back from a TMB highlights trek. It was honestly one of the best things I have ever done. Our guide Marta was exceptional. Full of energy with excellent knowledge of the trail. She did a great job leading our group.

The accomodation was excellent both in Chamonix and on the trail. Communication before the trip was great too.

The only thing I would say is that when I booked the trip it was for a group of 10 and on arrival the group was only 5 people. I wasn't expecting the numbers to be this small. But came away from the trip absolutely buzzing. I would highly recommend 👍

I have just come back from my trip where I summitted Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc. Everything was great and would highly recommend Adventure Base. Our guides (David & Felix) for the week were really good, great guys and kept us very safe throughout. They showed great communication the whole time. We staying in the Pointe Isabelle hotel, 4 of us sharing a 2 bedroom suite. The hotel was really nice.
I wouldn’t hesitate to book my next trip with AB

Amazing experience start to finish. All information provided made things super easy, the food and accommodation was really good. The guides Fabio and Catalin were great guys with plenty of experience. You are in safe hands comfortably with those two. Met some amazing people had a blast. The only negative thing is that it had to come to an end.

Thank you to the Adventure Base team for organising a great Monte Blanc trip.
Booking through this company was easy, with plenty of information & always ready to answer any questions I had.
The leaders we had, Lars and Rodger, were very experienced, friendly, great fun and helpful.
It was great to meet other like minded members of our team to share the experience with.
It’s a shame we didn’t summit Mont Blanc, but the experience of getting up to Tete Rouse and summiting Grand Paradiso was amazing.
Would definitely recommend Adventure Base & use them again in the future 👌

From booking to end of trip, we had great service from Adventure Base. Beth was very patient and accommodating to answer all our questions. The trek was planned perfectly! We will definitely recommend to others and will use them again for a return visit.

Everything with Adventure Base was absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend them again/use them again myself.

Lucy and Calvin are warm and friendly hosts for the chalet who kept us all well fed and watered. The rooms and bathrooms are all really nice, spacious and well maintained.

Fabio the guide was also very friendly and full of fun stories while at the same time bringing an abundance of experience and professionalism to the actual climbing itself. When my Mont Blanc climb fell through due to a knee injury cropping up after summiting Gran Paradiso he was very adaptable and provided plenty of other options; we ended up tackling some pretty cool ridges on Aguille Du Midi that I will remember for a long time!

Special mention also needs to go to Beth for helping me get sorted with a replacement phone when I lost mine on the last day before flying home 18 hours later. She totally went above and beyond in a stressful situation to ensure I had a means of keeping in contact with family and accessing boarding passes and bus tickets etc. And she did it all with a smile and a laugh.

Adventure base 10/10 all the way through

Absolutely fantastic. Every thing about it was great. Guides, host couldn't ask for better

Great trip from start to finish very well organised and thought out. I wouldn’t think twice about booking through AB again, everyone I met was really nice.

The experience before the trip was good. The app provides a lot of details and content. The website also provides content on how to prepare. I would have liked more content on travel insurance and options. The recommend provider and package was expensive. I would have like to explore options.

The trip experience was amazing. The apartment in Chamonix was roomy and close proximity to city center. The hosts were very helpful providing encouragement, good food and suggestions on places to go in the area.

Our guides were professionals. They were very experienced with the locations and mountaineer skills. I was confident with their advice and instruction.

I felt the trip was challenging but with proper physical training and basic knowledge of mountain hiking, the guides will ensure you accomplish your summit in good to fair conditions. Unfortunately my group did not submit Mont Blanc however it was due to extreme weather conditions which is always a possibility. The guides and company adapted quickly to determine alternatives that were still exciting and fulfilling.

I will be returning for a 2nd attempt at Mont Blanc. Likely the same time of year. When I do I will go through Adventure Base again.

Cavin and Lucy were very thoughtfull.
Miha is a great guy, always shering is storys and experiences. Nacho took me safely to MB. The facilitys were great and confortable. Maybe a farewell dinner would have been nice, but its just a detail. I didnt summited MB because of the weather, made it only till the middle of it. So now i have to come back. I will be at the top one day. Thanks for theese journay. Up is the only way!

In general a fantastic week. It was very physically demanding as it was early season and there was extra snow and complications on parts of the route up to Mont Blanc. The accomodation good and hosts (Lucy and Calvin) were excellent.

The two guides we had (Nacho and Fabio) were very experienced and made you feel very safe.

There were some slight issues with transport at the end but in reality these were minor.

My one caution here would be that if you are considering this trip don't underestimate the need for fitness and some hill experience. I'm generally fit (putting a mix of activity for about 10 hrs per week) and I found it difficult. I found the intro courses with Matt Cooper of The Mountaineering Company invaluable. The YouTube videos seem to represent a mid season ascent.

I would agree with idea that a specific mountaineering fitness program/test would be a good idea.
