Description

Explore the heart of the Alps and enjoy stunning views on a private ride in a comfortable SUV or V-class minivan. The Valley of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, squeezed by high Alpine mountains, stretches for 17 kilometers and includes several small towns with its own name. One of the most exhilarating places to visit in Chamonix, the Aiguille du Midi viewpoint affords 360-degree panoramas of the Alps. From the highest viewing terrace at 3,843 meters, there is a direct outlook onto Mont Blanc and amazing views of the Chamonix valley, the snowy peaks of the Alps and the tongues of glaciers. Let's discover the majestic Mont Blanc (4807 m), which is considered the highest peak of the Alps and all of Western Europe. Mont Blanc is also called the 'roof of Europe' with a very good location on the border of three states - Italy, France and Switzerland. Beneath the imposing peak of Mont Blanc is Chamonix, an alpine town that bustles throughout the year. Chamonix is primarily interesting as an alpine ski resort in France. Chamonix came to international attention in 1924, when it hosted the first Olympic Winter Games, and the town has a classic alpine style. Wooden chalets line small roads and little squares, upscale boutiques, and gourmet restaurants. Dining options range from casual cafés and traditional brasseries to fancy gastronomic establishments.
