Vertical Frontiers Anmeldelser 

Ben Bradford was my guide on the Chamonix Glacier and was awesome. He made for a really amazing experience and I would recommend him and Vertical Frontiers to anyone looking to ski a unique experience in Chamonix!

Ben and his team were fantastic. They ran a deeply considered and expertly planned Mont Blanc five day expedition.
Sensitive and alive to the differing experiences of our group, they balanced training us with assessments that were progressive and enjoyably demanding.
On the summit day Ben organised the group into pairs based around their ability to work with each other and their respective skill sets, such as pace.
Bens decision making and ability to balance safety with enjoyment allied to his thorough planning and knowledge of the mountains ensured that everyone in the group had an outstanding and safe experience.
I have already booked my next trip and have no hesitation in recommending Ben and Veritcal Frontiers to anyone looking for guides in the Alps.

We did Mont Blanc in a day with Ben and one of his guides, Tim. They were top quality and I would thoroughly recommend.

Ben Bradford and his Vertical Frontiers were excellent guides and partners for our adventurious trip to the peaks of Grand Paradiso and Mont Blanc in the Alps, first week of June 2022. Ben was very responsive, flexible, and informative during the preparation stage. He advised on equipment and preparation for the climbing experience. Our guide for the trip, Ali, was excellent too. He was fast, motivated and pushed us; made the right safety calls when needed; stayed calm with our inexperience; and provided us with extra equipment when he deemed it necessary.

I would strongly recommend Vertical Frontiers for both beginners in the high mountains and also experienced alpinists who are looking for guiding support.

Booked a ski tour Mont Blanc trip with Vertical Frontiers in April 2022. We (group of 4) had such a great week preparing for the summit attempt and all successfully summited Mont Blanc and skiied off the top. Couldn't have made it to the top without the guides Ben and Ally who were amazing. Will definitely be hitting them up again in the near future.

Had a great day in the Valley Blanche with Neil who had a great level of knowledge of the area and guided us across some tricky terrain in the final exit route area of the Grand and Petit envers.

The best guiding service in the Alps. Ben and his team are highly responsive, accommodating and flexible. I was lucky over summer to have them guide me in a Mont Blanc summit, traverse in Chamonix and snow climbing in Cormayeur. I would recommend them to anyone

Wow, where do I begin? Having worked in the guiding industry, I was familiar with how trips could potentially be run. I was blown away by the outstanding communication from Ben, all the way to the guides. Ben was extremely patient while I was trying to figure out what to climb during my time in Chamonix. He gave great suggestions and honest feedback when I gave him mine and my friend's backgrounds. He was very responsive and extremely helpful. Before I even took my first outing with them, I felt very comfortable. Jonny was my guide for Aiguille d'Entreves, and I could not have asked for a better person to do that climb with! He was kind, professional, fun, and easy to talk to. I felt safe the entire time, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable days of my life! Thank you for this amazing day. My friend and I had an outing on Aiguille des Marbrées, and Ally was our guide. He was so awesome! We had tougher conditions with some new snow on the ridge, and even though my friend was a beginner, she felt safe and had a wonderful, exciting, and memorable experience! It was great to climb with Ally because he was personable, honest, and fun to be around. Some guides simply just "do their job" Jonny and Ally were not only doing their jobs, they went above and beyond to make sure we had a great and full-on experience. I am so thankful for Vertical Frontiers, and I cannot recommend this guiding company enough. I cannot wait to have another outing with them.

Ben / Vertical Frontiers guided our groupof three adults for five days - after two days of acclimatization and technical training (incl. crampons) in the Aosta Valley with Ben, we successfully summited Mont Blanc via the Chamonix / Nic d' Aigle / Tete Rousse / Gouter Hut Route. For Mt. Blanc, Catalin Dobre joined our group as a second guide.

Ben coordinated the preparation of and joined us for our trip - the whole experience was truly top-notch.

Throughout the planning phase, Ben was very responsive, diligent and forward-thinking to proactively put together a program that perfectly reflected our expectations, while carefully considering our skill level, training requirements and sufficient flexibility for local weather conditions.

We also made use of the option to rent various climbing / hiking equipment for a very competitive price through Ben.

During the trip, we enjoyed being rigorously prepared and adequately challenged while feeling 100% safe at all times. Both the hikes and our joint leisure time at the huts were entertaining and it would be hard to imagine any better guiding experience.
Esp. Ben is a very experienced mountain-lover with strong coaching skills, intimate know-how of the whole Western Alpine region and many interesting and fun war stories to share.

In sum, we are glad to unconditionally recommend Ben / Vertical Frontiers to mountaineers across all skill levels - he has definitively become our clear go-to-option for any guided trips in the French and Swiss Alps!

Absolutely amazing trip with Vertical Frontiers. Our guide Ally was brilliant, top bloke. An electrical storm hit our planned summit day, Ally made the call to hold back and we were rewarded the following day by an awesome climb. A stunning few days in the mountains, we had a blast.

Ben was a tremendous help in organising two climbs, both relatively last minute, that exceeded my expectations. He arranged two really excellent guides who were knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend time with, his guidance on the various route options was invaluable. Will be booking with VF again!

I had a great week in Chamonix with Ben from Vertical Frontiers.. Ben pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of which is what I came for. I learnt and I enjoyed. Climbing Mont Blanc on the final day was one of the best experiences of my life. Thanks Ben!

Since the first contact with Vertical Frontiers, it was very easy to communicate with them. They gave me detailed explanations to every question I had, answered the same day and had absolutely no hidden costs. The initial itinerary of Italian Route had to be modified due to bad weather and we climbed the route Trois Monts instead. Vertical Frontiers made everything possible so I could reach the summit: they gave me a fantastic guide Ally Swinton, who prepared a perfect itinerary for acclimatisation considering the fact that we had to reach the summit a day earlier. In 4 days I learned and did things I have never done before, but always dreamed of. And all of this while having lots of fun, feeling super safe and being encouraged in a very natural way (which I think is one of the best Ally's qualities). I highly recommend Vertical Frontiers and especially the guide Ally Swinton

Ben offers you the support needed to make ambitious dreams happen. He helped me to summit of Mont-Blanc via the Pope Route, something I will would not achieved without his skill and professionalism

Great few days. Easy to book. Ben was a super guide!

Ben was great. Good company, hugely competent, and dealt with a tricky situation with agility and flexibility. Fantastic trip.

We had booked Ben for two days of ice climbing and although the weather prevented us doing that specifically we still had a brilliant time skiing, snow shoeing and mountaineering with him. It was great that Ben was so flexible and able to arrange the alternative activities. He was friendly, enthusiastic, hugely knowledgeable and was able to pitch the sessions so that me as a novice and my partner Mick as an experienced climber both got a lot out of the two days. We are hoping to return next year for further adventures and would recommend Vertical Frontiers for anyone looking for a mountain guide in the Chamonix area.

Well equipped company and very professional. Our guide also managed to find untouched powder.
The landscape was breathtaking

We had an excellent experience with Ben Bradford and Vertical Frontiers.

Ben guided us to some amazing rides in fresh powder. He was professional and responsive.

Ben and Vertical Frontiers have our strong recomendation.

We did Vallee Blanche with Vertical Frontiers and it was an amazing experience! Our guide Ally was fun, helpful, he provided us with comprehensive instructions, all the necessary equipment and an awesome choice of route which allowed us to ride some untouched powder. The whole descent was a dream come true for me!
