Thank you Matthieu! Our rafting experience is the highlight thus far on our trip (voted by all family members including Conor). We greatly appreciate your skills in guiding us safely through the Chamonix River.
Definitely a must do with your family while in Chamonix. We had an amazing time and some wonderful memories!
We had a wonderful morning with our nice guide Matthieu who took us on a nice tour in a rubber boat in a part of the rapids that suited our family. We also got to try swimming in the cold water. Wonderful views at the foot of Mont Blanc through Chamonix.
it was a fantastic experience. Matthieu is a great leader and enthoustiastic. Next year we go again.
Fast, safe, fun, spectacular scenery under Mont Blanc and through Chamonix. Professional instructors with a very friendly demeanor, building a team and interacting with the group, Lucas was a 10!!
Very pleasant guide and good atmosphere.
Fantastic experience with the crew on the Arve river. It had rained substantially the day before so the river was high and fast - also very cold! - but the whole experience was great from beginning to end. All gear supplied, a good 30 mins of training and practice before entering the river and a ‘safety swim’ at the end really cooled us off and showed us just how intense the river is! Highly recommend.
Very good welcome. Precise and clear instructions. Nice setting that allows you to discover Chamonix in a different way.
Our tour was set to start at 2 as a severe thunderstorm came in. At the departure time there was active thunder and lightning and the guide who met us stated it would be dangerous to raft in an active storm. The tour operator refused to cancel and Viator declined a refund. We are unable to reschedule because we are leaving the area tomorrow. So we are out the amount paid. Very concerning that this company would risk the safety of its guests.
Hello, We were surprised to see your review, especially since you did not actually take part in the activity. We find it unfortunate that a negative review was posted even though your refund had already been approved following the cancellation. During the peak season, our team handles a very high volume of bookings and customer requests, so processing refunds and replying to emails may take a little time. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to respond or issue a refund within a few minutes of a cancellation. We believe this review does not reflect the quality of our services or the actual customer experience, and in this context, we feel it is unfair and inappropriate. We kindly ask you to remove this review. If you would like to discuss the situation further, we would be happy to do so and find a constructive solution. Thank you for your understanding.
An amazing experience from start to finish! Rafting in Chamonix was exciting, fun, and well organized. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and the guides were professional, friendly, and made everyone feel safe throughout the trip. Whether you're a beginner or looking for an adrenaline rush, this is an activity you shouldn't miss. I would definitely do it again. Highly recommended!
