Poster: A snowHead
|
A friend of mine is looking to book his first ski hol for a while and loves Austria. The difference now is that he and his wife have a baby who'll be 8 months old by the time they're looking to go.
Has anyone had any experience of Ski Espirit in Austria they could share? Or indeed any other tour oporators that have a good record of child care.
Thanks.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Tell them to do the right thing Mark, and leave the baby behind with it's granny!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Ski Esprit do have a good child care service - at least they do in Plan Peisey, so they're probably a pretty safe bet in Austria too.
Grandparents are cheaper though!

We experienced ski esprit at Arc 2000 a couple of years ago and found them one of the more organised "family" operators. At that time we had a 1 year old - would recommend based on our experience.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

We've experienced Espirit twice in France and on the whole they were good, hence the recommendation to my friend, but like all operations, it can depend on the resort/accomodation/location, hence the query about Austria in particular. Thanks for the input thus far.

I took two children (ages 2 and 3) to Sheffau in Austria. It was difficult enough and I didn't get as much skiing done as I would have liked. BUT, it was worth it. If you can leave the kids behind, do so, but Espirit were really good with them and I would definately recommend them to anyone.
