Holiday makers

Tina provides ski-guiding and other personal assistance for €20 per hour (shared, not per person!) She also offers end-of-holiday apartment cleaning for €35. We firmly believe that every euro spent on Tina's time is the best possible added value for your holiday.

Get off to a flying start: Tina can guide you and recommend produce, shops, restaurants, opening times etc. She is on hand to help you and sometimes organises group outings such as meals at le Cassina
She will advise and help you arrange other activities such as snow-shoeing, cross-country skiing, swimming, ice skating, ice hockey, walking routes etc.
Get the best value ski equipment: Through long association with Marin Sports, Tina can personally assist your fittings and ensure you get the best equipment available at the best discount.
Make the most of the ski area: Tina understands local conditions and can advise where is best to ski. She can guide your group on runs you might otherwise miss, and plan how to rejoin the family on time.
If some of you need lessons: Tina can make advance bookings for you. At half term, she organises special lessons at the ski school, which are much better value than standard group lessons.
Only the ESF is certified for teaching but if Tina leads your group it is likely to include very good tips and be cheaper and more fun than lessons!
Save on restaurants!: The mountain restaurants here are very good but do vary a lot in quality and price. If Tina is guiding you, her advice on meals can be worth more than you pay for her time!
