Franck was very knowledgeable about the mountain and very concerned about safety. He met me at the bottom of the cable car station and guided me for the entire day back to the cable car station! Next time I am in Chamonix I will hire Chamonix Sport Adventure for some more mountain touring and paragliding! More

An early morning pickup at our hotel by Franck from Chamonix Sport Aventure resulted in a glorious day with two drops at the Trient Glacier in Switzerland. Perfect weather combined with all kinds of snow conditions made the day. Franck guided and navigated us through some fantastic terrain and the second drop of the day challenged us with steep skiing... More

Franck was the best guide I had in Chamonix. He has years of experience in the mountains and is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Also, his English is excellent, something that I have had little luck with in Chamonix. If you are heading to Chamonix for a ski trip and want some true off-piste experience to meet your ability level,... More

My 17 year old son and I engaged Franck Chapon for 2 days of guiding and instructing (Franck unfortunately was not able to guide us on the Valle Blanch for the 3rd day, but kindly arranged another excellent guide, Laurence Monnoyeur to provide the service). We are red and black piste skiers with limited off-piste experience, but after 2 days... More

Our organisation used Chamonix Sport Aventure for our annual corporate ski trip. After much debate, we chose Chamonix as our destination and contacted Chamonix Sport Aventure based on the trip advisor comments. There was a group of 15 of us, of mixed ski/snowboard abilities, and we booked 4 instructors from Chamonix Sport Aventure for 4 days. Franck, organised us into... More

I used Franck Chapon at Chamonix Sport Aventure for ski lessons . Franck was an excellent instructor and we found that it was great to use a local who knew the best places to ski away from the crowds. Chamonix has a number of ski areas so it was great that Franck would collect us in a morning from our... More
