Ski Lessons: The family wanted their children to learn in ski school but their arrival dates were not compatible. Through our extensive contacts we instead organised a private instructor for the children at a really competitive price. Meanwhile, the adults explored with a ski guide.
Equipment Hire: The family were pre-ordered their equipment online, fitted on their arrival and stored in their specific locker in the boot room. Lift Passes were arranged to be collected by the family at the apartment residence reception on their arrival.
The family wanted a smooth, stress free start to their mornings so we organised a breakfast hamper delivery to their door each day.
They also wanted to share a once in a lifetime experience with grandparents away from the slopes as they were not skiing. After discussing the options we booked a husky dog sledding afternoon which proved a big success!
"We enjoyed a wonderful family ski holiday in Flaine. All aspects of our trip were discussed in detail with the Hanski team, which due to their personal caring service and attention to detail led to the creation of an experience that exceeded our expectations. Many thanks once again!"
