General Notes for Transfers
Transfer times will vary depending on road and weather conditions. Transfers will generally be in a coach and it will not be possible to provide or fit child seats.
Car hire from airports and train stations can be booked through Argus Car Hire.
Travel to the Alps by Road
As an alternative to flights, you can choose to drive yourself to the Alps.
Les Gets is particularly easy to drive to, as one of the nearest French resorts to the channel. Les Menuires and La Plagne are only an hour further down the autoroute. All journeys are straightforward, and we provide comprehensive directions – including SatNav coordinates for your chalet.
Family Ski Travel Insurance & Ski Holiday Insurance
What you need to know about skiing insurance
We require you to take out adequate insurance cover for your Ski Famille skiing holiday.
We accept no responsibility for costs incurred by guests that would normally be covered by good quality travel insurance. Items we would expect all travellers to have insured include cancellation, curtailment, expenses resulting from delayed travel, and winter sports specific cover.
Winter Sports are not always covered, or can have some restrictive terms, on annual policies or free policies provided by banks. Do check what is on offer with your current insurer against what is available through MPI.
Planning Your Ski Holiday
Leave the organising to us and simply sit back and enjoy your holiday
Let us make life easier by organising your ski passes, any ski lessons you wish to book, and all of the equipment you need to ensure you’re prepared to hit the slopes.
We can help you plan your time in the mountains. If you want the children to have ski lessons, then we can arrange that all for you as part of our childcare service. We can also arrange private or group lessons for adults if you are looking to fine tune your skills.
Ski Passes & Equipment
If you need to hire skis or other equipment, then we have great relationships with helpful equipment suppliers in each of our four resorts.
