One of the best experiences I had ever. The Chominx town and Mont Blanc mountain was excellent and I had a lovely time with my wife. This should not be missed under any circumstances.

The ice cave was amazing! Prepare to walk steps and then steps back up! But so worth the trek!!!
Hard to believe that a family carves thus out EVERY year!

We were lucky that the weather was favourable - brilliant blue skies and no wind. Chris the guide was nice and since it wasn’t too busy we didn’t need to rush too much or queue for too long. The walk down to the ice cave was easy enough but steep so perhaps not advised unless reasonably fit and steady on your feet. Nicely organised, definitely recommend.

This was a great tour! The weather wasn't so good the day we went and it was snowing and freezing at the top of the Aguille du Midi, but it's the mountains so you get the weather you get, but we still had a wonderful day, and by mid-afternoon the sun was shining and we had great visibility at the glacier. Our guide was punctual and very helpful and made sure to account for every passenger. It's expensive to do the full package, but my mom and I thought it was worth every penny! I'd definitely recommend - it's a perfect way to take in Chamonix and Mont Blanc in one day and still be back in Geneva at a good time for dinner!

I had so much fun! Beautiful outlook! Fun ride on a lift up!
If you are going in spring definitely bring all your warm clothes and be ready for a possible snow and wind! I was there April 22 and temperature was -15* on the top.

Amazing views. Cable car was incredible engineering to go so high. The glass cave was a natural wonder. Just a note of caution that you should be able to go up and down lots of stairs and because of the altitude you will get winded. Only suggestion for the tour is to have the guide throughout the day not just at drop offs and pickups.
