Overview

Introduction

We regularly organise ski tours and instructional courses for groups of friends. Please contact us with as much detail as possible (ski area, group size, when you would like to go) and we will put together a quote for you, at no obligation. The tour can be a carbon copy of one of our regular tours, or something more unique. We probably have more experience of skiing in destinations outside of the European Alps then any other company, so if you have something adventurous in mind, please get in touch.
