The Mont Blanc circuit was only partial because we took buses/taxi several times. I was disappointed with the group, whose goal seemed to be to go as fast as possible instead of taking the time to admire the scenery. I felt like I was in a race. The breaks were very short, even though we arrived at the campsite early. The guide was nice! The food was good throughout the trip. The tents are very cramped for two people with their packs. The mattress is too thin and not at all comfortable. The conditions were quite harsh (several days of rain, little comfort in the tent), but the scenery was magnificent. Still, I'm glad I did this legendary trek.

The experience and the trip were fabulous, the guide was excellent, and the views and the route were fantastic. However, the equipment provided by Decathlon Travel for the bivouac was more than inadequate. The tents absorbed moisture and rain from underneath, meaning the equipment was wet in the morning, the tent pegs were bent every which way, and the mattresses provided were literally punctured, offering no even the minimum possible comfort for the night. This is quite disappointing considering the price of the trip; the very least that should be done is to check the equipment before each departure.

Good morning,

Thank you so much for your feedback and for sharing your experience! We are delighted that the scenery, the tour and the guide's work provided you with such a fabulous trip.

We are, however, sincerely sorry about the condition of the camping equipment. What you describe (leaky tents, bent tent pegs, and punctured mattresses) is absolutely unacceptable, especially on this type of trip where a good night's rest is essential. You are absolutely right: the equipment must undergo a rigorous check before each departure.

We are immediately contacting our logistics teams on site to ensure a full inventory is carried out and that defective equipment is immediately replaced.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with this crucial information, which allows us to quickly correct this problem. We look forward to accompanying you on a future adventure in much more comfortable conditions!

We were so lucky to have Vincent as our guide for our Tour du Mont Blanc, and we couldn't have asked for a better one! 🤩🏔️ Vincent is a very attentive, passionate, and available guide. He has extensive knowledge of glaciers, as well as the local flora and fauna, which truly enriched our experience throughout the trip. Always smiling, with great energy and a friendly nature, he created a wonderful atmosphere within the group. 😊 A huge thank you to him for this magnificent adventure and all the beautiful memories! I wholeheartedly recommend Vincent. Regarding the information provided about the trip, some details were inaccurate and should be updated. For example, it was stated that three-person tents were available, but there weren't any. Similarly, the picnics were presented as being prepared by a caterer, when in fact they were made with METRO products, especially the salads. It would therefore be worthwhile to review and update this information to better reflect the reality of the stay. On the other hand, there were no complaints about the cheese and charcuterie, which were of very high quality.
