- Note if you book your extras via us, we don’t charge you upfront, with payment only due 1-2 weeks before your trip. So you get the peace-of-mind of pre-booking, without the risk of chasing down a refund if you need to cancel for any reason.
We know that with an independent chalet holiday, booking your accommodation is just one part of the equation – on top of this, you’ll have to work out how best to get to resort; you’ll all need a lift pass – but which one? And some of your group may need lessons, but at what level, and who with? And where’s best for ski hire?
We often hear from guests that, with some independent chalet companies, they’ve had to sort out everything themselves – which can be a pain. But here at Alpine365, we’ll do the hard work for you and help advise on everything for you before you arrive. We’ll call the ski schools, check availability and send you options on lessons. We’ll work out which passes are best and cheapest for your group. Once we know your flight details, we’ll search for the most competitive airport transfer for your group. If you’re driving, we can recommend places to stay en-route! If you need childcare, we can also advise (lots of the nannies have baby-sat our own kids so we can personally recommend them!)
Ski Passes – There are lots of different options and deals for ski passes, all of which we can advise on, and book for you. (We also have lots of offers and discounts on lift passes – plus we’ll try to either match or beat all official prices online!)
Ski Hire – You want great kit, at a good price, and near to the chalet so there’s no trekking with ski gear. We’ve teamed up with two companies to deliver just that for our guests – and we have a discount code for all Alpine365 guests.
Ski Lessons – Booking ski school can be confusing – do you want group lessons or privates? Which ski school? What time? But don’t worry, we will do the hard work for you and contact the ski schools on your behalf.
Childcare – as parents ourselves, we know how important the right childcare is to ensure a smooth family ski holiday for everyone. We work with local nannies (some of whom have babysat our own kids!) and put you in direct contact with them.
Non-skiing activities – from in-chalet massages to husky rides to taxis to the La Plagne Bobsleigh or the Folie Douce, we have it covered.
Travel – as a small, independent firm, we don’t book flights to and from France – but once you are here, we can help and advise on everything else. Whether it’s simply advice on the best airports, or how to drive to the chalet, or booking an airport transfer, we’re here to help out.
