Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB)
Walking around Mont Blanc through France, Italy, Switzerland, three cultures, one mountain!
Trekking the Tour du Mont Blanc, better known as the 'TMB', has fascinated walkers for several hundred years. Horace-Benedicte de Saussure, the famous Swiss botanist, was the first person to have circumnavigated the entire Mont Blanc Range for scientific reasons in 1758. This may well be the historical beginning of one of the world's best-known walks.
The Tour du Mont Blanc Trek offers some of the most spectacular alpine landscapes, hiking over several major mountain passes while enjoying breathtaking views of the giants of the Alps.
From the mountaineering capital of the world, Chamonix, France, the Tour du Mont Blanc takes you from alpine meadows to the rugged, mineral world of the high mountains, and back down to the valley where tradition has gone uninterrupted for hundreds of years. During the summer months of July and August, alpine flora and fauna are prolific and wildflowers line the trails of the Tour du Mont Blanc.
We offer two different versions of the Tour du Mont Blanc:
An 8-day Tour du Mont Blanc Express, and the longer, 12-day Tour du Mont Blanc Trek.

"Thanks for a wonderful TMB. It was exactly what we needed and so amazingly well organized - can't imagine it being better! I hope we can hook up for a drink sometime when we're out that way. If not, definitely on a future trek - maybe Greece, maybe Nepal, who knows. All the best."— Graham and Alexa Bodel, UK » More references
