first time skiier

I am planning a trip to arinsal mid march and was looking at booking through first choice with the option of hiring equipment with them and doing their learn to ski package!

It all seems a liitle bit confusing!

We were also looking to stay in the xalet besoli hotel! has anyone stayed there! any info would be much appreciated!! cheers

do yourself a favour and do NOT book with first choice - their flight is awful, the transfer coach is over-booked and half the people can%26#39;t get on and are left stranded, the reps are totally incompetent and they will undoubtedly mess up your hotel booking. I did the learn to ski package through them at xalet besoli.....surfice to say that i would never book with first choice again, even if i got 75% off! The resort of arinsal is a good place to learn to ski but pick a diff hotel there and more importantly a diff travel agent!

Try Panorama or My travel, if you go to Arinsal try the princess park a real good hotel. They (Panorama also do a good ski learn package inc equipment hire.

All the instructors speak good english and are very helpfull, the only downside is the lack of snow at present hope they hsve some son.

Hi,

We just got back from a week%26#39;s skiing in Arinsal and booked with Inghams. Couldn%26#39;t recommend them enough. Good time keeping, nice reps who were around somewhere or other all the time, and the learn to ski package was well organised and priced.

Book online and you even get a pretty good discount!
