Backcountry Skiing in Megeve: Top Outdoor Adventures Awaiting You

Ben was a great Guide. I can fully recommend him. I had a great day. I can also recommend him for people who are little bit scared. He stays calm and show you how to move on and give you convidence. Thank you

First of all, I want to say that we were guided only one day by Stephane Combe. I have been ski touring for more than 20 years and never without a guide. What I like about the process is the proximity to calm nature, the sporty aspect and the adrenaline that comes with it from time to time. My best outings were those where trust with my guide was total. I rarely do reviews on sites but it seems important to me today to do so as the experience with Stephane Combe was unpleasant. As a customer, I did not feel listened to. To make him agree to propose a program different from the one he wanted to do personally was energy-intensive. Then he chose a blown descent to the west to descend at noon. Obviously the snow was not transformed. We arrived downstairs at 1.30pm to be told the day was over. He apparently wasn't there to work full days. In 20 years of experience, I have never seen such a selfish, egocentric, self-centered guide, swearing at anything he doesn't like. A very unpleasant character that I do not advise anyone to meet.

Stephane was injured so arranged an alternative guide who was very good. When I booked the trip it was to do the Vallée Blanche. After I made the booking it was suggested that if that trip was not possible, we would do off-piste skiing in Megeve (where we were staying). The day was very good but it would have been better if I had been told before confirming my booking that the chances of doing the Vallée Blanch at that time of year were very low.

Excellent guide - Stephane has a unique knowledge of the area and we were in safe hands throughout the off piste tour - we can highly recommend Stephane Comte. Regards, Anders
