If you're looking to book a half-term ski trip, we recommend that you:
- Take advice on where to go. If you'd like to discuss where would be best for your family, call our team on 023 9289 0960 - they will be able to find the perfect resort for you. Look out for resorts which have the Famille Plus award. These resorts have high-quality facilities and activities especially aimed at families and children.
- Book early. Popular residences and resorts really do book up quickly. We're already taking lots of bookings for February half-term for our popular resorts and accommodation.
- Get ski school booked up as soon as possible. As soon as you know where you're going, get ski school booked up. All of your other extras - lift passes, equipment hire - can wait, but ski school does sell out at half-term. The morning sessions are in very high demand!
- Self-drive. Driving allows you to take everything the kids like and need without having to worry about luggage allowances. You can break the journey up with overnight stays and check out the other resorts in the area.
- Of course, if self-drive isn't for you, there's always the brilliant ski train and we can help with transfers and car rental to get you from stations and airports to your resort.
