How to book
Pricing
- Every safari we create is unique.
- Because we tailor the date, length, ski level, and accommodation to you, no two trips are the same.
- We focus on you, and the mountain. One group might request a 5 star spa hotel with a full week heli-skiing, another might prefer a simple mountain refuge and the satisfaction of reaching a peak with skins strapped to their skis.
- That’s why we don’t show prices on our website: they wouldn’t be right.
- All the experiences you’ll see here are examples of what we have created for clients in the past*, and just an idea of what’s possible.
- Have a look at our safaris, get in touch for further inspiration, and we’ll create an exclusive mountain experience just for you.
- And before you know it, you’ll be enjoying the remote beauty of the European Alps.
- Simple as that.
