Check the weather forecast before you go. They have specific cable car schedules based on conditions, so you want to maximize your experience up there.

I recommend visiting the Aiguille du Midi in the morning, around 8:30 AM. The views are amazing and you beat the crowds doing it this way.

If you have time, explore the hikes around the cable car stations. I found some hidden gems that weren't crowded and offered breathtaking views!

I think it's best to visit on a weekday if you can. The weekends can get super busy, and waiting can eat into your fun time!

Make sure to take your time at the top! There are great walking paths and places to take photos. I rushed and missed some stunning spots.

If you're on a budget, consider getting a combined ticket for the cable car and other local attractions. It can save you a few bucks!

I recommend checking the weather forecast before your trip. The views from the top can be stunning, but you don't want to be stuck in the fog.

My advice is to buy your tickets online in advance to save a few euros and speed up the process... Seriously, I wish I had done that instead of waiting in line at the ticket booth!

I suggest getting there by 8:30 AM to avoid the long lines. We got stuck waiting for nearly an hour! Starting early gave us a clear view of the Mont Blanc without any crowds

Make sure to check the weather forecast ahead of time. A clear day makes all the difference for views and photos; I regretted going when it was cloudy!

i suggest you get your tickets online before you go. the lines can get pretty long and skipping that queue makes the experience a lot smoother. plus you might find some deals if you look around!

I suggest visiting around 9 AM when it opens for the best views and fewer crowds. The sunrise over the mountains is absolutely stunning and worth the early start!
