Expert Advice
"....world renowned as being North America's biggest and best, both in the area covered and the vertical range of the slopes"

This west coast mountain resort is world-renowned as being North America’s biggest and best - both in area & vertical. The 216km of pistes cover two mountains & are linked by an impressive high-speed lift system. Whether a complete novice or a downhill Olympian, there is an amazing choice of well laid out, maintained & signposted slopes. Beginners learn quickly with excellent tuition while intermediates & advanced skiers & boarders revel in the sheer variety of piste & deep powder bowls available.

The accommodation we feature is in one of the two most conveniently located, pedestrianised village areas, each lying at the foot of their respective mountain & a short ten minute walk apart. Both Blackcomb & Whistler Villages are teeming with shops, boutiques, restaurants, bars & clubs & there are many exciting on & off slope activities to try out. It’s a party town with a relaxed west coast buzz & a roaring après-ski scene.

See our pre-bookable ski packs for details of the following special offers:
  • FREE child lift pass per pre-booked adult pass.
  • FREE child equipment per adult booking the same.

Don't miss out on our great offers for winter 2008/09!

Vancouver City Add-On

It's a bit further to go than Europe so you'll probably want to stay at least 10 or 11 nights and see as much as you can while you're there. Why not take the opportunity to visit Vancouver which is the city you'll be flying to and which can be added to the start or end of your holiday for as many nights as you wish.

Ski & Rail Safari
