USA

So why take your group to USA for a winter School ski trip experience?

American resorts benefit from virtually no lift queues Monday to Friday and quieter slopes, no language barriers between instructors and students, outstanding customer service, superior hotel accommodation compared to European hotels, city stopover options and much more.

SkiClass groups get more for their money in 2010/11 with North America. We have continued to develop our range of resorts in the West for groups to experience the best conditions and hospitality available. Brighton in Utah is a new destination for SkiClass and promises to be an outstanding option for groups with 100% of the slopes accessible by high speed quad lifts. Steamboat is a top class resort in the Colorado Rockies with a cowboy meets the 21st century feel not to be missed. Not forgetting those that like the East Coast we have now included the slope side lodging resort of Sugarloaf for those that want the snow on their doorstep!
