Location Mer De Glace, Geneva, France

Velema Excursions

Embark on an exhilarating journey through the majestic landscapes of the French Alps, starting from Geneva. Immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring experience of ascending the iconic Aiguille du Midi and marveling at the mesmerizing Mer de Glace ice caves. This guided day tour offers unparalleled views and unforgettable adventures for those seeking a thrilling adventure in nature's grandeur.



On this guided day tour departing from Geneva, visitors will explore the breathtaking landscapes of the French Alps. Admire the serene atmosphere and rich cultural charm of the mountain village of Chamonix during this excursion.

Departing from Geneva, travelers will first reach Chamonix, a historic French village now serving as a gateway to one of Europe’s highest peaks, the Aiguille du Midi. Board a cable car to ascend to the summit of Aiguille du Midi, where panoramic views stretching to the height of 3,842 meters unfold below. Nearby, the majestic Mont Blanc and the grandeur of the Grandes Jorasses await.

Descending back to the village of Chamonix, guests can spend the remainder of their day exploring its charming streets and local eateries. Enjoy a leisurely hour and a half of free time before reuniting with the tour guide for an engaging afternoon.

The tour concludes with a walk through Chamonix, appreciating its historical landmarks along the way. Following this, passengers board a historical cogwheel train that ascends 1,900 meters (6,300 feet) to the awe-inspiring Mer de Glace. Here, tourists have two options: they may choose to explore the icy caves within the glacier or undertake a challenging 550-step ascent to witness the sheer scale of the Mer de Glace firsthand.

Upon returning to Chamonix, travelers have the option to purchase souvenirs while enjoying the ride back to Geneva. Upon arrival in Geneva, relax on the journey home and enjoy the conclusion of the tour.
