Incredible trip, fantastic guide, amazing route. However, I think the difficulty level indicated for this Tour du Mont Blanc isn't accurate. It was listed as intermediate, but we all agreed that this was an understatement. It was more of an advanced level. I also found it disappointing that we didn't receive a discount voucher for Decathlon gear when booking through Decathlon Travel.
