Austria has always been a first choice for school groups and many of our Party Leaders choose to return year after year. Famed for beautiful scenery, picture postcard villages, warm hospitality and, of course...great skiing.
For 2010/11 we are delighted to continue with our Austrian programme which includes a great range of resorts such as charming Hohentauern and fantastic Zillertal alongside all our tried and trusted favourites.
Austria is renowned for amazing skiing and with so many resorts to choose from there is something for every school group. Schools will also enjoy historic, medieval villages and a country rich in heritage and culture. In addition, it's the perfect opportunity for groups to practise their German language skills in a real environment.
We have long-established relationships with many of our featured hotels and also offer a number of fantastic youth hotels which have great facilities and are perfect for school groups. The wide variety of resorts on offer combined with the reliable snow, incredible skiing and great value for money all mean that Austria remains a perfect choice for a school ski tour.
