Our recent trip was fantastic. We saw so much and loved every minute of it. Our transportation with GVA Transfers was great. The vehicle was very clean and comfortable. The hotel pick up was very convenient and very prompt. Our driver Evan was the best. He provided so much information about everything we were seeing. He provided time for pictures along the ride. I would highly recommend this tour and the travel provided by GVA.
Stunning village. A great variety of shops. Easy to negotiate shops and streets i.e. no steps and steep elavations. This was my favourite day of my three weeks in Europe. Stunning views at the top of the cable car. Electric train was a nice ride, but I am not sure the ice tunnels are worth the scores of steps down and up. Even without the cable car rides, this village is stunning, maybe even more beautiful from the village than at the top of the mountain. The trip is basically just transport to the village, and the guide tells you what to do with the tickets etc. If you booked the lunch option, he basically will walk you to the restaurant for a three course lunch - which when it is busy, may take more than an hour. Personally, I enjoyed exploring the town and buying my own lunch as there was plenty of take away options that were totally delicious. BEWARE - our driver told us that the other driver would collect us at 5pm. This other driver drove off at 5pm because when he was asked three for Geneva, he thought he was being asked if he was a taxi, and said no, this is a private tour bus and drove off. Lucky one of the guys with me had the previous driver's mobile number, as this first driver had to call this other one to turn around and pick us up. Part of the problem is that the second driver wasn't told how many people he was expecting and so didn't realise he had to wait for us three but we were on time. There are trains to Geneva - if you find yourselves being left behind! Make sure you have a contact mobile number! You could maybe pre-book the cable car and do this trip yourself - not sure how much cheaper it would be. But it was easy to be collected from the hotel and go straight up the cable care - avoiding the very long queues. Great day in this quaint village.
It was a nice excursion. We were driven to Chamonix and shown to the Cable Car Ride and Train Ride which we were to take by ourselves. The lunch was good but service at the restaurant was very very slow. We waited at least 10 to 15 minutes between courses and this ate into our time for the train ride to the Glacier.
Me and my Wife had a super excursion to Chamonix. We received excellent service from this company and we would would only recommend to other travellers. Thank you for a great day..
