Visitor Reviews of Les Contamines


maria from France writes:

It is a good place, but it can be lonely or desolate there too, especially in bad weather and had some terrible ski instructor last year, one who was just a waste of money and time.........and just pushed us too hard and risky, I didn't enjoy it, but went another time and would rave it.
