A once in a lifetime trip

Classic Tour du Mont-Blanc Self-Guided

Rating
Reviewed by: Kristin Mikkelson

Our tour of Mount Blanc was exceptional. Run the alps took care of all the logistics and things ran seamlessly. We always seemed to get the best room available at each hotel or hut which we very much appreciated! This was a once in a lifetime trip and we would highly recommend Run the Alps to anyone looking for a trip without any worry where you can just focus on how sore your legs are on the extremely steep descents and how delicious that lunch tastes.

Why

I chose this trip for the culture, distance, and mileage and to challenge myself while not worrying about any of the logistics. I also wanted to be able to have a delicious lunch every day in the middle of our run!

Advice

This was the most wonderful trip and my advice would be that even though your legs are super sore on day 2-3 they will recover and toughen up for the rest of the trip. Also take advantage of all the spring fed fountains throughout the tour as the water is excellent.

Highlight

There were honestly so many highlights - the scenery, the challenge each day, the food, each cute hotel or hut we stayed in.
