The Alps is without
doubt one of the most spectacularly beautiful regions on our planet and offers a
diverse range of activities in both Summer and Winter.
Having operated tours
there for many years we now consider Austria to be our “backyard” and our
love of this beautiful country, its amazing culture and its friendly people is
shared with our customers through the holidays and tours we organise.
The vast majority of
the Alpine tours we offer are for groups, ranging from schools and colleges to
company corporate events, or simply an extended party of friends. If you have 20
or more, we can tailor make a package for you. The visit may be for sporting,
educational or cultural purposes or perhaps a mixture, whatever the reason
Austria and Wilfreda have the passion to deliver the perfect holiday that will
be remembered long after it has ended.
Winter
On our skiing and
snowboard holidays all our customers enjoy packages that are totally organised
perfectly for them.
We only use fully
qualified, multi-lingual ski instructors who are employed locally and are
therefore very experienced. Winter sports equipment is entrusted to our partners
Intersport who are widely renowned as the finest ski hire suppliers.
Accommodation used
varies, according to customers requirements and budget, from simple, family run
establishments through to luxurious 4 and 5 star hotels. All come with our
personal “seal of approval”.
As we own and operate
our own fleet of ultra modern luxury coaches, schools particularly like our
fantastic value for money packages that deliver them “door to door” with the
minimum of fuss. Our drivers are specifically trained in this type of work and
of course, our coaches are fully prepared for Alpine conditions.
As an example, ski
holidays have been operated this year for schools including 6 nights
accommodation in a good quality hotel, Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner each day, 6
days ski and boot hire, 6 day lift pass, 6 full days of ski school, return
luxury coach travel from the UK, ferry crossings, local transfers in resort,
presentation evening and disco for less than £690 per pupil with all
accompanying teachers free!
Summer
In the warmer months
from May to September, The Austrian Alps transforms to a breathtaking blaze of
colour with soaring mountains, shimmering lakes and flower filled pastures.
An array of
activities also become available including, climbing, hiking, rafting, canyoning
and more leisurely pusuits such as golf with some spectacular courses.
Educational,
historical and cultural content can be mixed with activities to make a fantastic
school trip. In Kaprun, our favourite resort, there is the opportunity, in the
middle of Summer, to ski on the glacier in the morning and swim in the lake in
the afternoon! Visit the huge hydro-electric dam and power station, descend deep
into a salt mine, visit Hitler’s infamous “Eagles Nest” and discover “Sound of
Music City” – Salzburg – the birthplace of Mozart. These are just a few of the
many possibilities…..
We would very much
welcome the opportunity to give you a quotation for your group holiday and look
forward to hearing from you.
Happy Holiday |
