When organising a ski holiday for you and your mates, consider the resorts in and around Geneva for a holiday full of the best breath-taking views, steep inclines and off-piste powder runs that Europe has to offer. Here are a few of the areas you may want to consider for your next ski holiday. Portes de Soleil The world's oldest cross-border ski destination, the Portes du Soleil expands across the neighbouring Alpine regions of French Chablais and Swiss Valais. Ski both countries in one trip seamlessly, without borders. Portes de Soleil packs in an impressive 600 km of pistes, with 300 ski slopes and 199 lifts. You and your buddies will have 90 slope-side restaurants to choose from for relaxing, fuelling up and taking in the amazing mountain views at the end of the day or in between runs. There are also a number of great après-ski bars and nightclubs to grab a drink and meet others when a day on the slopes is done. If you happen to be visiting during the third week of March, you and your mates will be treated to the Rock the Pistes music festival, featuring concerts by French and international rock artists that perform at altitude. When booking your group’s Geneva airport transfers to your chalet in Portes de Soleil, a private service will ensure a driver is waiting to transport you and your mates from the airport to your accommodations in an hour and forty minutes, getting you out on the slopes as soon as possible. Chamonix Mont-Blanc If your group is seeking something a little more on the challenging side, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc (or Chamonix) could be the perfect choice, as it is known for its steep and challenging runs. The 20-kilometre Valley Blanche is the longest high off-piste run in Europe and is recommended for the more experienced skier or daredevil! Located at the base of Mont Blanc at the junction of France, Switzerland and Italy, Chamonix first gained fame in 1924 as host of the first Winter Olympics. The resort is believed by many to be the birthplace of European Alpine skiing. Choose from a number of great restaurants for dinner and a thriving nightlife for après-ski fun. If you group is seeking a quiet night out, travel just outside Chamonix town, where the vibe is little more laid back and relaxed. In an hour and ten minutes, private Geneva airport transfers can get you and your group conveniently to your accommodations in Chamonix Mont-Blanc and back again to the airport at the end of your ski trip. Evasion Mont Blanc Sheltered by the highest peak in Europe, the Evasion Mont Blanc area covers the resorts of Megève, Saint Gervais, Saint Nicolas, Combloux and Les Contamines in France. It features 117 ski lifts and 450km of mapped ski runs covering all experience levels. Your group’s Geneva airport transfers will get you into Evasion Mont Blanc in just over an hour. Your Shuttle Direct vehicle will be sufficient to accommodate your group, including luggage and equipment and will save you from having to find a number of over-priced taxis at the last minute. Book in advance and be set to enjoy a fabulous ski holiday with the guys.
