How to get around
Choose between the "ski bus" coach or a self drive rental car to travel between your accommodation and the ski areas.
OPTION A: SKI BUS TRAVEL
This is our most popular way to travel to/from your accommodation to the ski fields. You can sit back, relax and let someone else drive. You don’t have to drive on icy roads and fit chains in freezing conditions. It’s relatively inexpensive (with no petrol & insurance costs) and is an easy way to meet other skiers and to get to know our drivers/resort reps. You also get dropped off at, or close to the ski area base buildings, so you don’t have to walk to or from a parking area |

OPTION B: SELF DRIVE RENTAL CAR
Self Drive transport gives you the flexibility to do your own thing – to go where you want when you want. Remember, when doing your costings to allow for petrol and vehicle insurance excess. You may also have to fit chains. Value Tours offers a selection of Rental Car suppliers and vehicle types. > More rental car information.
Many of our clients use Ski Bus travel in the ski resorts and pick up a rental car when finished skiing to do some additional sightseeing at the end of their holiday. |
