"Great company"
Great company, great guides. Very well organised and laid out trip where we bagged not just one summit (Mont Blanc) but two in the same week with Gran Paradiso as well! Good job all around.

"Adventure Base Stay "
Booking through Adventure Base was simple and informative. Opted for Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc mountain climbs. Leading up to the trip Beth answered any queries I had regarding equipment in a timely manner. Once trip was confirmed we received more information regarding the itinerary and kit list. This made it very easy to ensure we had all relevant items before we arrived. Adventure Base provide an App for you to use to check off a kit list and also give you a full itinerary of each day your there.
When we arrived to the chalet we were greeted by Calvin & Lucy. Who were both very friendly and welcoming. We arrived early and they allowed us to leave our luggage in the chalet until it was check in time. Calvin & Lucy were great hosts and always made sure we were attended to during meals times. All the cakes that were baked were delicious! When we returned from Gran Paradiso we were greeted with a lemon drizzle cake! Just what we needed after a few days of mountaineering. The room we stayed in was clean and had space to move around.
Although we ended up opting out of the Mont Blanc climb, Fabio was quick to fill in our days with fun activities. We rock climbed, did a ridge walk and mountaineered around aiguille du midi. We learnt a lot on these 3 days and will return next year to attempt to climb Mont Blanc. Fabio helped us summit Gran Paradiso and I was never in doubt regarding my safety. Fabio has a wealth of knowledge and is a very very experienced guide. Fabio had many stories to tell and kept the mood of the group high.
Can’t fault the Adventure Base Team. They accommodated us at every step and made us feel welcome! I look forward to booking many trips through Adventure Base over the coming years.
Thank you Adventure Base Team for making lifelong memories!

"Grand Paradiso and Mont Blanc summits"
I did the Grand Paradiso and Mont Blanc trip with Adventure Base and it has been an awesome adventure! Our basecamp legends (Lucy and Calvin) looked after us very well( those cakes were amazing) and our guides Fabio and David did their best to make sure we have an unforgettable experience!

"I had a great experience with Adventure…"
I had a great experience with Adventure Base. The response quick to my question emails/texts and organised the TMB according to my needs. They went beyond in the expected service. Last day they even brought my luggage to my hotel. Those extra things made a difference.

"Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc "
Just back from Gran Paradiso and Mont Blanc trek. An absolutely incredible if brutal experience! Shout out to our guides Alessandro on Gran Paradiso, David and Nacho on Mont Blanc - without whose knowledge, experience and encouragement we never would have made it to the summit. Smooth organisation with Adventure Base, would definitely recommend.

Excellent route plan, reservations all secured, very good support. Only issue was the FATMAP app

"Our TMB experience was incredible!"
Our TMB experience was incredible and the staff at Adventure Base did an excellent job arranging the whole thing. We found their app to be a very useful tool both before and during the trip. The suggested kit list was spot on - we felt very prepared for all that we encountered. The suggested amount of time spent on the trail was somewhat ambitious for our group, as we stopped often for pictures and coffees, but we quickly were able to gauge what our actual expected travel time would be each day. Our evening accommodations were superb and we woke each day refreshed and ready to hit the trail again. The only suggestion I have is that people (especially those who move a bit on the slower side) might want to pack a lunch, or at least a somewhat substantial snack, every day. We were unable to get lunch at the refuges on 2 separate occasions, once because we hadn’t made a reservation (we didn’t know we needed one), and once because we arrived a short while after the kitchen had closed. Overall we had an amazing experience, and would recommend this tour, booked through Adventure Base, to anyone. Thanks!

"The Mont Blanc trip"
I signed up for the Mont Blanc trip with Adventure Base, it was great, lots of information was shared before hand with a clear itinerary and great guides. It was hard work and you need to be physically very fit but saying that no previous mountaineering experience required is perhaps a little misleading.
