re: lift pass-equipment hire

Hi all,

Can someone give me some advise on buying a lift pass and hiring ski equipment

I am travelling on my own steam, so not with an operator

I have read a couple of other messages saying buy lift passes and hire equipment before you go via your operator. But what shopuld I do if I am not using an operator? Buy when I get there? Hire when I get there?

Cheers

Pete,

That is why I am asking Very Happy

Sorry mate - no.

The reason tour companies offer them cheap is because they buy in bulk and pass on the savings to their customers. The prices in the resort are the full price anyone pays on the day and will be substantially more as they are not discounted. I know of no site that offers them cheaper, but I wish you luck trying.

Steve has no contacts to get cheap passes - I can assure you of that.

Neither would he be too please with his e-mail address being published on here - hence I HAVE REMOVED IT.

It's just a policy we stick to. If anybody wishes to post their mail address anywhere then that's fine by us, but we do not permit others to post others.

I'm sure you think that daft, but that is our policy.

Not meant to be having a go at you - honest Wink

re: lift pass-equipment hire

Hi Smag
I am in the same position. Bulgaria Ski quoted me £128 for full package of equipment hire lift passes and tuition for 6 days. Dont have recomendations from people who have used them but I got in touch with them through this site.
