Climb Pyrenees mountain range in Europe, with Rob

Rob Turner has a reason to join other cyclists from Aston Cantlow to the Pyrenees mountain range (in Europe). One must say a ‘nice’ idea to celebrate the 70th birth anniversary and prove to the world that – AGE is just a number.

To climb 26 mountains and cycle 530 miles [in a marathon event] is not an easy task, but for this 70-year ‘young at heart’ man, there is nothing impossible in life. He will start his journey on 28th August from Biarritz with a mission to provide funds towards charity, in memory of his nephew who died of bowel cancer.

The 70-year old Rob even reminisces cycling alongside Boris Johnson in the 100 mile London event, on August 4th 2013.

Now, everyone can contribute and be a part of the mission: http://www.virginmoneygiving.com/robturner7

Stay tuned with AlpyBus for the latest news from the UK travel and tourism sector and for low cost private and shared transfers from Geneva Airport.

To Aiguille du Midi, in few minutes

Aiguille du Midi (12,605 feet / 3842 metres): “Needle of the South” or “Needle of Southern France”.

A few things to consider:
  • Do not miss the ride on tramway/cable car to the highest vertical ascent. Though not recommended for people with heart problems, agoraphobia (fear of open spaces) or severe mountain/altitude sickness.
  • During the peak season, get tramway tickets well in advance.
  • The weather changes moods. Therefore, check the snow report or weather forecast, before planning out the journey.
  • Pack digital or video cameras with UV filters, and binoculars for the panoramic view at the top of Aiguille du Midi. Keep extra camera batteries, ready.

Verbier to Geneva Transfer

Customer satisfaction is important to every business, and is the mainstay of any business in the service sector.

Here’s what Adrian has to say about the ‘Verbier to Geneva transfer service’ of AlpyBus.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Subject:* Thank You - Great Service - Booking Reference B-21591

Hi,

Just a line to compliment you for a seamless service provided yesterday in transporting me from Verbier to Geneva airport in time for a mid morning flight.

Please pass my thanks on to Patricia (who drove the bus yesterday) for her professionalism and positive personality when some of the passengers were perhaps a little abrupt - a true credit to your company.

Working for a major UK company I understand and recognise the value of good customer service in a time when many let standards slip.

Thanks again,

Adrian
