"We used Snowslippers to organise our school ski trip for the first time in 2006. As soon as we returned to the UK our students were asking about booking for next years holiday. That is a real complement to Snowslippers and their team. The hotel was very friendly and being away from the town of St Johann had advantages for us. Its isolated location in a pretty village meant we were able to monitor the students easily and we were able to use its cellar bar for a range of activities. We appreciated the well maintained, low occupancy rooms; the food was of excellent quality and plentiful. The ski instruction from the Red White Red Ski School was excellent. The daily organisation such as the storing of equipment and the ski and boot fitting was very good."

"The evening programmes were full and varied, even the sceptics joined in and enjoyed the Snowslippers variation on skittles. The thermal baths in Bad Gastein are fantastic. In future we will be spending longer there! The coach company was excellent. The drivers went over and above what was expected of them."

"Overall our school ski holiday was fantastic. Our school has students with considerable ski trip experience and they are unanimous in the view that the Snowslippers ski holiday was the best ever. The support they gave was exceptional. We are definitely booking through Snowslippers for next year's ski trip. Because of pressure from students, I launched the 2007 school ski trip early; it was full within 24 hours. 2006 was such a success that word had spread around the school like wildfire."

Mrs A Marshal, Silverdale School, Sheffield.

"As usual, everything on our last Snowslippers ski holiday ran smoothly - the skiing, the activities, the visits to the hospital and even the snow. The trip was a huge success. Within 2 days of returning we were deluged with deposits for next year's ski trip, so much so that we are now fully booked with a long waiting list of pupils desperate to join the trip should someone drop out!"

"We have been skiing with Snowslippers since 1995 and have always found that the individual attention we have received from them very comforting. Whenever you take children on trips you rarely have the chance to relax, however, when there have been things that need resolving then it has been dealt with very efficiently without fuss. Their working relationship with the local organisations makes the operation very slick. The confidence is further enhanced by having the directors of the company in resort throughout the trip. I have not thought of arranging a trip with any other company despite receiving many glossy brochures and listening to many pushy sales reps."

"Gowerton School Ski Club has operated since 1975. We have organised ski courses in many different resorts; throughout Austria, Italy and France. We have used many different companies."

"When we became aware of the existence of Snowslippers in 1993, we asked them to arrange our next school ski trip to Alpendorf. Since then, we have returned with Snowslippers each year, sometimes twice a year."

"The owners and their staff are efficient, open, honest and pro-active. They have excellent relationships with the providers in the resort and are always there."

"The professionalism of all their colleagues ensures that our pupils and students enjoy a first rate snow experience each and every time and that the extra-curricular activities are first rate and well organised."

"Through their close working partnership with the best ski school that we have ever used: Red White Red, Alpendorf, Snowslippers ensures that tuition, equipment and care of our pupils is of the highest quality possible."

""It is not a problem" is the phrase we associate with Snowslippers. It sums up what their attitude is prior to departure and in resort. "You come as customers but leave as friends" has certainly been true of our long, continuing interaction with the company."

"Snowslippers was recommended to us in 1999 and we have travelled with them on 9 school ski trips since then. They provide a professional, yet friendly and personal service before, during and after a trip. Their use of the excellent Red White Red Ski School makes for a really fun 6 days skiing/snowboarding for the kids and gives the teachers confidence to relax and enjoy their skiing too. The relationships Snowslippers has built up with the local hotel owners make for a really warm welcome by family run guesthouses. We highly recommend Snowslippers as a company who can organise your school ski trip."

"We have now used the services of Snowslippers for six years; they were originally recommended by another school. With the help and support we have received from the team, we have gone from taking 40 students to now taking three coaches, over 120 students!"

"We experienced superb organisation from the onset. The resort is fantastic; we use a lovely family run Austrian guesthouse. The Red White Red Ski School is excellent; all instructors speak English and have lots of fun with our students. We always receive excellent care and support is always given if the need arises and kids have to make a hospital visit."

"Our students are always well looked after and many return for a second or third trip. Plenty of evening entertainment: swimming, tobogganing, bowling, candle lit walks, horse drawn sleigh rides. Their prices are extremely competitive, which is why so many of our students can make repeat visits. Friends who have heard about Snowslippers are also now regular visitors to St Johann and are loyal Snowslippers customers."
