My uncle just got a holiday skiing for a week for £300

Includes Ski's, Ski Pass, Half Day tuition each day, Accommodation & Flights.

When I went on a skiing holiday they asked do you want to do Boarding or skiing so you'd probably be looking at same price as all it is is a different shaped object strapped to your feet

Andorra I think which is somewhere over that way.

Thats where I went..It was amazing!

All the newbie had a lot harder time learning to board rather than ski. I picked up how to ski after a day's tuition.

thats about the right price really greg, that included flights and transfers!
Problem is most airports are about 3-4 hours coach ride to the mountains!

If youre a beginner you will need lessons for sure

we took off at 7am, landed at 8am, then got to our resort at lunchtime, sort the boards and we made the last lift right to the top of tignes and then just boarded back to hotel on first day, worked out perfectly!!

I say a skiing holiday is about £600-£800

same as a normal holiday really

I'm going tomorrow!!!!!

Were off to Les Arc in France and i think we've paid £400 for the Room/Flight and transfer each. Then we've got our food and Ski Pass to pay for.

Check out Bulgaria for cheap holidays, the only thing is that the runs arent very long
