A well- planned and well-supported wonderful adventure

This is a big walk with some long ascents and descents. The rewards are great, with awe-inspiring views, the satisfaction of significant achievement, and good companionship. The practical arrangements were well organised and the camp manager and guide both worked very hard to make sure everyone was looked after. The camping was comfortable and the food was great.

Fantastic Trip - Tour de Mont Blanc Camping

The trip was very well organised. The scenery was amazing. Fantastic views and trails. Our tour guide, Augustine, was exceptional, very knowledgeable about landscape and flora. He set a good pace, was very supportive to the whole group. Augustine is an excellent ambassador for Exodus. Our camp leader, Kieron, was equally good. The camp was well organised and comfortable. The equipment provided was very good. The tents had blackout linings which were very helpful. The food was excellent – Kieron is a very good cook. We really appreciated the tea, coffee and biscuits being readily available and the well stocked bar. All in all, a fantastic experience and we would thoroughly recommend this trip. The group was a great mix of ages (early twenties to mid sixties) and personalities. Alastair and Louise Bowie August 2023

Tour du Mont Blanc Camping

A fantastic 10 days of walking up and down mountains with beautiful scenery.

Brilliant trip in the beautiful Alps

We can’t recommend this trip highly enough – the trip is a challenging walk with more ascent and descent than Everest but the scenery, culture and experience are just outstanding. The sense of achievement on completing the TMB is amazing. Our group came from all corners of the world but we quickly formed a really close-knit group, together with our wonderful leaders Kieron and Shaun. The tents are spacious and the black-out means they stay cool, and dark in the mornings. Each day started with a chorus of unzipping the tents, and then we had breakfast and packed up the camp ready for the next days adventure. The trip is divided into 3-5 days of walking followed by a rest day, where you can chose from lots of activities, including chilling in the campsite, shopping, visiting a spa, e-biking, ascending by cable car or train to the glaciers, or even paragliding!! This allows tired legs to recover, and for everyone to have an adventure at their own pace. Kieron’s cooking was amazing, and we also ate out in restaurants on some nights which were included. The campsites are clean and quiet, and offer amazing up-close views of the mountains. Shaun was a great guide, with lots of local knowledge and he kept us all together, even on the toughest days. There was always time for coffee and cake at one of the many refuges or alpages along the route.

Fantastic!

Just returned from two weeks walking the Tour du Mont Blanc. It was a fantastic experience, at times hard work, but every drop of perspiration was worth the effort. Excellent group camaraderie; everyone got on very well and the two groups leaders – Shaun and Kieron – were first rate. The evening meals were very good, often restaurant standard. Would whole-heartedly recommend the trip. Just make sure you are fit enough for the challenge of the long climbs.

2023 July Tour du Mont Blanc Camping Trek

Wonderful trip all around

The camping trek around Mont Blanc was great fun. Perfect combination of challenge, reward, and just a fun group of people to be with. Our guide, Mike, kept us on track on the trail with very convenient breaks at refuges and summits keeping a steady pace that all could manage while not micromanging the group. Kieron kept our camp put together in almost always changing locations and created lovely meals. The sites were all well chosen and almost all had some sort of shade/rain cover which was lovely.

Stunning Trip

What an amazing trip from start to finish. The weather was perfect which made the trip even more special. One day of mist and drizzle which spoilt the views but not the walking experience. Kieran’s camp was fantastic, not to mention his cooking. It was amazing what he could produce out of his tiny kitchen. Loads of beer and wine. Tents good. Big enough to sleep two but not with bags as well so I paid extra for single use. Sleeping bag, mat and pillow also good quality.

An amazing adventure walking amongst the beautiful alps

What a fantastic trip. I didn’t really know what to expect but I was blown away by the beautiful scenery and camping amongst the Alps. Our group and camp leaders Mike and Kieron were fabulous – fun, helpful and just great to hang out with. I’d do some training for the walk as it can be demanding but our group leader made sure the pace was manageable. We had a great group of people and I recommend the camping tour as we all became quite close pitching in and hanging out together. The tents were roomy and comfortable and the campgrounds we stayed in were also quite comfortable. Kieron made us beautiful meals, we certainly were fed well!! I definitely give this tour 5 stars, it’s challenging, beautiful, and you’ll make some life long friends.

What a Trip!

Before I left my girlfriend was teasing me about spending two weeks camping with creepy crawlies and having to eat tinned spaghetti hoops every night. In truth it could not have been more different. Kieron the camp leader was great, tents were put up for us, beers were cold, the food was healthy, tasty and home cooked and exceeded all expectations. The tents were modern and roomy, I paid extra for a single but they are more than big enough for two. Campsites were good and the mat, pillow and sleeping bag I rented were all just fine. We were really well looked after. The trek was superb too – I’m a really pleased I chose to do the full thing.
