  • Maybe you didn’t think you can cover three countries in three days, but we’re here to prove you wrong! Join us in Chamonix for a 5-day Alps ski tour (three days of skiing) and let’s explore France, Italy, and Switzerland on skis. Welcoming to both beginner skiers as well as super experienced ones looking for a real challenge, this adventure is one to remember. Stunning scenery, even better skiing, and seamless logistics await—four-star hotel included, as well as daily transfers, ski passes, safety equipment, and more!

    • Make your way to Chamonix in the French Alps. Depending on your schedule, we will take care of your ski passes (ikon passes need to be checked at the central cash desk) and we’ll meet you at your accommodation for a general brief with the latest snow updates and a welcome dinner. Get some rest for tomorrow!

    • We’re going to Italy today! A 30-minute drive will take us to Val d’Aosta valley, and a completely different scenery and atmosphere. Skiing in Italy is a real treat, and not only thanks to its food! The scenery is unique and you’ll be able to discover the south face of the Mont Blanc valley. In the evening, we’ll return back to our hotel.

    • Our third and last country of the trip is Switzerland. We’ll drive to Verbier, circa 1.5 hours away from Chamonix, one of the most popular ski resorts in Switzerland. Maybe we’ll include Zermatt and Grindelwald, but there will certainly be incredible off-piste possibilities. Verbier also has a huge number of nice pistes called the Four Valleys Ski Area. Return to Chamonix for your final night here.
