FAQs ABOUT OUR MONT BLANC GLACIER TOURS
Do I need any previous experience to do these glacier tours?
No. They’re technically easy, and your guide will show you exactly what to do. The tours vary in terms of length and elevation gain, though, so choose the tour that’s most appropriate for your physical fitness.
Will I feel any altitude sickness?
You may feel a bit lightheaded, but as it’s a private guided tour, you can take your time, rest when you need to and walk slowly.
Do I need any special equipment?
You need regular hiking clothing, including a jacket, beanie, and gloves – glaciers can be a bit chilly! Your mountain guide will provide you with mountaineering shoes, crampons, harness, and ropes.
Will I be summitting Mont Blanc?
While you will get incredible views of Mont Blanc, you won’t be submitting it as that’s a real multi-day expedition that does require technical mountaineering skills.
