Tour guide in Chamonix Claire J.

I have been living in Haute-Savoie for 30 years, I am married and I am a 54-year-old mother of four. I always loved travelling with my family to Asia, North and Central America, Oceania and Europe. We loved mixing French and foreign cultures as well as discovering beautiful landscapes. My hobbies are music and sport. I can play piano, organ and guitar. I like alpine skiing, ski touring, cross-country skiing in winter, hiking and water skiing in summer. As a former executive, I have benefited from 25 years experience in sales, export, strategic planning and finance before setting up my own business. Over the years, I had realized how important travel, tourism, discoveries and meeting new people were to me. I became a guide with the aim of letting French and foreign visitors discover Savoie and Haute-Savoie in the most pleasant way. I structured my touristic agency as a travel agent combined with my Heritage Guide agreement. I am also a biographer, it gives me the opportunity to meet local people and tell stories about their life and experience. Being a tour guide allows me to show the variety of the Savoie Mont-Blanc region. I like explaining how people lived there before, how it became famous thanks to mountaineering, how is life nowadays and also showing high-quality french products such as cheese, wine, bread. . . The region Savoie Mont-Blanc is well-known for its sport activities in winter as well as in summer, but it is less known for the richness of its baroque style architecture, its musical events and its History. As a guide I always try to share my knowledge and my passion for these different aspects, according to your wishes. I am really keen to offer tours in a friendly, secure atmosphere, so that you can totally relax. I am ready to customize your tours and be flexible according to your requests. I will be so happy to welcome you soon, to accompany you throughout the whole tour and to share the delightful treasures of the Savoie Mont-Blanc region with you.
