Your Holiday with Hucksters
A Week of Wonder
What is it like to spend a week in our ski chalets in France?
We don’t only strive to give you ski and snowboarding holidays at a great price but we also endeavour to make your holiday equally fantastic. In this guide, we’ll run through what happens when you get to our French ski resorts, our top tips and how many skiing experiences you can expect from a week’s holiday.
But first, here’s what your holiday with us could be like:
Your week with us:
- Friday- Departure: A Snow Express coach picks you up from your departure point at an arranged time in the afternoon. We travel to Dover to reach France via the ferry where you have the opportunity for a meal in the bar or restaurants. From Calais, your journey continues as our modern ski coach travels through the night to ensure you see the sun rise over the mountain peaks (see our ski coach holidays page for more details).
- Saturday- Arrival: Staff will be on hand to provide you with your pre-paid lift passes and equipment vouchers so you’ll be ready to go, whenever you are! We’ll provide you with directions to the discounted ski and snowboard hire shop and help you arrange lessons if required. Go and enjoy a couple of hours on the slopes, your room will be ready from 4pm.
- Sunday to Friday: Enjoy your holiday, explore the mountains, find your favourite lunch spot, the best run on the moutnain and don't forget those all important selfies!
- Saturday- Departure: Guest flying home will leave early for their airport transfers. Guests travelling on the Hucksters Snow Coach will get ready for their final day of skiing and snowboarding. Make sure to pack your luggage and have it stored away by 9am so that we can make sure it makes it onto the coach.
It is not goodbye, simply au revoir until next year when you come back for more skiing in France with us!
Our Top Tips:
- Make sure to pack your ski wear at the top of your luggage so that you can get easily get changed into it
- Ask our staff for any help you may need planning trips, finding your way around the resort or ski advice.
- Have an idea of what things you would like to see and do on your holiday with some research to make the most of your holiday.
