We have paid nearly £4k for our first family ski holiday which includes tuition. On top of that we have spent nearly £800 on gear and some lessons at xscape. We are an ordinary family on a moderate income and Pamporovo was recommended as an ideal first location but nobody mentioned that we may not be able to ski!!!! We were told snow machines are used in worst case scenario. We are getting really concerned now.
Gill,
We are in the same boat, 4k down and depressed and three very dissapointed kids. Gutted but there you go I just hope there is a good bar and a rep that can take plenty of pressure. I tried to get diverted today but they wont have it the only thing we might get back is tuition fee's but won't hold my breath. good luck and keep praying
if you want snow at xmas,head for pas de la casa andorra next year,fantastic snow record,duty free shopping and now linked to soldeu so loads of piste to ski,also some fantastic panoramic views and great sunny weather
gill for 4k you could have gone to banff there is never any snow gaurentee and even when there is still might not be able to ski, can i sujest taking a portable dvd player and hand held games thingds and a board game to keep the kids happy even if it snows you may need back up. we had two days no skiing last christmas due to rain
we had a day without skiing in andorra last xmas as it was snowing tooo hard,moving it off the streets with diggers and tipper trucks, the day after was the best conditions i've ever had
