 Poster: A snowHead
|
Seeking a bit of advice. Me, the missus and our 6 year old son are off to soldeu next week. Am I better off booking the ski hire and lift passes online before we go or just turn up and get it? Also as beginners and having a lesson for a couple of hours on the first day will we still need a lift pass for the nursery slopes?
Thanks in advance

Hi....are you going with a tour operator ? We are going with Neilson next Sunday.....conditions and weather look great......lets hope nothing changes. Not our first time in Soldeu though.......been more than a few times.
If you are going with a tour op then they will probably try to sell you everything on the coach or at your welcome meeting. I'be always found this to be easier.although it can be slightly cheaper to book equipment hire with someone like Skiset. Price difference probably won't be too much.....convenience generally works for me.
If you are all complete beginners it would be worth considering a complete beginners package....which would probably include equipment, lift pass and 5 days tuition......the ski-school is great fun and the instructors are generally great. The lift pass in these packages does not include all of the Grandvalira area....but there is enough skiing in Soldeu, El Tarter and Canillo to satisfy real newbies?
Please feel free to ask any questions.....you'll have a ball !

Sorry, didn't mention....you will need a lift pass to access the beginners slopes and ski school area.....at the top of the gondola from Soldeu....at the middle station called Espiolets.

We have been to Arinsal and Soldeu and were in Soldeu in January. We have used Soldeu-Andorra.com previosly and hey have been brilliant, they can book everything for you andvdo a number of deals and they are from the Uk so straight forward if you want to speak to them direct. The ski school is fantastic and have got a great reputation
