What Our Guests Say

Chamonix Rock Climbing Training Day, Sept 2020
Bram Houben, rock climbing - rope work and training day at Les GaillandsThanks for the solid day! Good stuff, first outdoor lead, first multipitch and checked the guidebook. The second pitch on the last climb was a 6a. So pretty happy with that one 😁

Solid knowledge 😂 & thanks for the photos. Bram

Half Day Chamonix Rock Climbing, Sept 2020
Tris & Rodrigo, Sport climbing & multi pitch rock training and guidingThanks for making it possible Rob! Great coaching, we managed to learn so much this morning…Big thanks to HMG for a great half day session Chamonix Rock climbing.

Really great for us as to have an instructor for outdoor climbing is an opportunity we don’t have easily London. Much more confident belaying now sans anchor and was really awesome to learn and experience multi pitch and abseiling! Thank youuuu 😊 Tris & Rodrigo.

Chamonix Intro Alpine Mountaineering Long Weekend
Patricia & Rodrigo, Chamonix Private Guiding & Aiguille du Tour & Alpine TrainingThank you so much for an amazing introduction! I’m so happy I actually can’t believe I managed to do that… Rodrigo and I truly enjoyed this weekend with you thank you!!

HMG thank you for the warm wishes, rest is definitely in the books for us this week 😂 Thanks again for all the planning and accommodating our last minute changes and we hope to see you next time!

2 Day Intro To Rock, Ice & Alpine Mountaineering in Chamonix
Bram & Justine, Chamonix Intro Alpine Weekend, Aug 2020Thank you once more for the excellent 2-day introduction into mountaineering. The first day on the glacier with instructions on specific techniques and continuous concrete advise were much appreciated. Especially loved you letting us try a hand at ice climbing. The 2nd day up Aiguille du Tour was amazing & continuous guidance on detailed elements throughout the climb were great.

The 2 day trip was all I could ask for as an introduction. The positivity in the team was just lovely + your continuous encouragements only improved the good spirits. Thank you & Justine for the amazing couple of days that left me wanting for more. It was a wonderful adventure and you will definitely see me again. Bram.

Chamonix Mountaineering Week – Alpine Day Tripping!
Andy Clarke, Chamonix Private Guiding, Aug 2020Rob, many thanks for organising 5 days climbing in France, Italy and Switzerland. I appreciate you had to make multiple changes leading up to our arrival and then during the week due to various circumstances! The route choices were superb and the focus on the AD routes perfectly suited what I wanted to get out of the week.

Your continuous advice & commentary on techniques, ropework, progress etc was helpful and always inciteful. The pandemic prevented us from getting to the Eiger, but despite this it was a week full (there was no let up!) of great routes, glorious exposure and amazing situations! (You perhaps need to work on your definition of a short day!) Definitely be coming back for an Eiger week in 2021!

Snowdonia Rock Climbing & Matterhorn Training
Ed Butchart, Private Guiding & Mountaineering Training North Wales, July 2020I had a great couple of days of Matterhorn training in Snowdonia with my guide Steve. It was a really useful couple of days, and I greatly appreciated accompanying someone with Steve’s experience and expertise. Thanks to all for arranging; shame you weren’t in charge of the weather!

I’ll certainly bear you guys in mind next time I come to Snowdonia. Many thanks again, Ed

Ski Vallée Blanche Guiding Feb 2020
Michael Clark, Jonathan Hildreth, Colin Goggin, USAWanted to send a note now that our crew is back stateside 🇺🇸. The reviews we received about your outfit before we booked were on point, A+ experience. Kenny was a terrific guide and showed us an unforgettable time, he knew what our capabilities and aspirations were, showed us the goods and kept us safe.
