Dedicated vehicle & chauffeur
At 3,842 m, the Aiguille du Midi whisks you from the valley to high alpine air in about 20 minutes, with the Mer de Glace, the Cosmiques ridge, and Italy spread out beneath Mont Blanc. The drive from Verbier runs via Martigny and the Col de la Forclaz (1,527 m), a 65 km link threading vineyard terraces and the Trient gorge. A tidbit for mountain lovers: the original cable car opened in 1955 and has been upgraded repeatedly; the Dôme du Goûter reveals different contours between noon and mid‑afternoon light.
Collected at your Verbier hotel, you travel in a refined Mercedes with your driver on standby to fine‑tune stops, sync with cable car slots, and handle border formalities. In Chamonix with your private driver, ride up the Aiguille du Midi first, then settle in for lunch on Rue Paccard or at Maison Carrier while they take care of parking. Later, pause in Vallorcine or Argentière for a glacier viewpoint by Pont des Îlettes, before a smooth run back over the Forclaz toward the Dents du Midi.
