Yes. You will need to purchase personal travel/holiday insurance before you depart the UK and ensure that you will be covered for winter sports for the duration of your ski trip.
There are three ski passes available in Les Houches & Chamonix.
If you are a beginner and want to ski just the local area of Les Houches, you can purchse the chapest 'Les Houches Only Ski Pass'.
For anyone else intermediate level or above you will require the 'Mont Blanc Unlimited ski pass' which covers all 5 mountains including the local ski area of Les Houches and the main 4 mountains in Chamonix, as well as the surround resorts of Courmayeur in Italy or the Evasion Ski Area including St Gervais, Megeve and Les Contamines in France.
It also covers the extra mountain in Chamonix called the Aiguille Du Midi. This is a very famous mountain as it is the highest in Europe and it is where a famous off-piste skiing route starts from called the ‘Valle Blanche’. Many people come to Chamonix to see the views from the top of this lift and so we recommend if you get the chance to go up this lift to do so.
Therefore if you are coming to Chamonix for off-piste skiing, amazing views, or a good intermediate to advance skier it is well worth opting for the Mont Blanc Unlimted Ski pass.
On the other hand if you are a beginner and on a budget we recommend opting for the Les Houches ski pass.
SUMMARY
Total Beginners: Don’t pre-book a ski pass and buy it on a day to day basis for the area where you are having your lesson.
Intermediates to Advanced: Mont Blanc Unlimted ski pass.
For guests travelling to Serre Chevalier, we recommend purchasing the full Galaxy ski pass.
In Val Thorens, the 3 Valleys ski pass will give you full access to all areas.
It is possible to do 6, 7 or 8 days skiing when on holiday in Chamonix and Les Houches
You are able to do this as, unlike many other companies, we are flexible on your arrival and departure times when staying in the resort. This means it is possible to ski in the afternoon on the arrival day and in the morning before your departure flight as well as the 6 days in between.
When staying in Val Thorens or Serre Chevalier the ski week is a 6 day week as the transfer times are more fixed.
Yes, we welcome couples in all of our chalets and a small group of friends travelling together if the people travelling are looking for a social holiday.
