skiScandinavia Traveller Reviews

We travelled to Trysil in Norway for Xmas and the New Year. On recommendation for or needs, we stayed at the Park Inn Resort on the mountain which was superb. Excellent suite of rooms, well located, with excellent spa and resort services. Our Ski-Norway Rep was fantastic and couldn't do enough to make sure we were ok. Excellent ski bus service into town and around the resorts. Only slight down side was the weather! To Ski-Norway's credit they did everything they could to mitigate the lack of snow which did curtail some of our outings. But we were offered alternatives. We'd definitely return to Scandinavia.

Extremely professional and excellent service from planning through to completion. Very friendly and helpful with advice and contingency planning. In resort our Rep was wonderful and knew all the answers to our many and varied questions. Would definitely recommend Ski-Norway to anyone travelling to Scandinavia.

1 week in Levi, Finland - so much more than just a ski holiday! Reindeer, husky drives, night time bobsleigh rides, Northern Lights, wonderful food, friendly people, cracking accommodation - and of course excellent skiing on perfectly manicured slopes.

We have traveled several times with SkiLapland - they have always been attentive, caring and helpful, ensuring that whatever we do they are on hand to assist if needed. We have recommended to several of our friends and will continue to do so!

The holiday itself was incredible and we would love to book again next year. We couldn't have asked for more for our first family ski holiday. We chose half board as we'd heard that Norway can be quite expensive. The hotel we stayed (Mountain Resort, Trysil) ticked all the boxes and with Ski Norway we had complimentary use of the spa and pool which was a huge bonus after a day on the slopes. The kids loved it. The skiing itself was great, ski in/ski out with plenty of good runs and good variety and quite often we'd be the only ones on the pistes. The area itself covered quite an extensive range. I personally felt the better skiing was on the other side of the mountain which was easy to get to via lifts etc but the childrens ski classes were on the hotel side. Our daughter(aged 7) was one of three in her class so by the end of the week was really quite competent, so much so I was able to take her out for a few hours on some good long runs. Our sons (aged 3) class again was also a small group. He took a few days to get into it but eventually he did and that was it. Next year he'll be all over it. Their lessons started at the hotel so no travelling involved which I think is great. Transfer to and from the hotel were a breeze. Great information handed out by the reps. We really couldn't fault anything about the trip. The price was comparable to going to the Alps, possibly even cheaper. We had guaranteed snow and absolutely no queues for the lifts. Perfect!

From our initial enquiry, right through to our booking and completion of the holiday everything was handled by Karen Nolan with the utmost professionalism. Nothing was too much and time was taken to explain every part of the holiday and what we could expect. Brilliant service.

This was our third SkiLapland holiday to Finland, and our second to Levi. As before the travel arrangements were smooth, we had all we needed at the airport and there was someone waiting for us to take us to the hotel despite a delay with our flight change at Helsinki. When this happened, Matt Nolan at SkiLapland was proactive in contacting us and sorting out the change in flights and the new transfer. All good. We had also changed our ski hire arrangements relatively late on and then had forgotten to print off what we needed to show the ski hire company. However this was easily sorted out too. Hotel apartment great, no hidden charges. Great experience. We didn't take any excursions this year - we did in previous years and they were great with personal service from Matt to make sure everything happened when it was supposed to and even organising individual tours and suggesting different things to try. Cant speak highly enough of SkiLapland. We only buy a package holiday when we ski and have relatively high expectations that things will run smoothly and these are always met.

Really responsive and helpful from initial enquiry to support in resort. Proactive, thinks ahead (got a call to remind us of a couple of things in advance, was ahead of the game when our transfer flight had to be changed due to inbound flight delays etc). Brilliant wouldn't use anyone else and recommend them to our friends which is always risky!

This place is magical! Gorgeous snow covered wood log cabins, really well appointed (wifi among other things), homely with a beautiful xmas tree to welcome us. All the cabins around were discreetly set away from each other and perfect for self catering if preferred. There is a really good restaurant a short walk away 'Kultala' which served great home cooked food. All the shops and places, even taxis, take cards so cash is not essential if you struggle to find a cash point. We travelled with SkiLapland.co.uk who were faultless. We did the reindeer and husky rides along with ice go-karting and snowmobile safari at night. The Santa experience was a huge hit with the kids and very relaxing for the adults. All the excursions were so professionally run and there was just so much to do. Top marks to Matt at Ski Lapland who looked after us we want to come again and soon! Not been to Finland before we loved it!

Very professional, friendly and outstanding.

Loved loved loved every minute of Trysil skiing. Everything was good about this holiday. Already booked to travel again next year!

Such an easy tour operator to deal with. No hassles at all!

We have a great family holiday in the resort of Trysil in Norway. The slopes and instruction for beginners was fantastic (who know my 4 year old would be able to ski from the top of the mountain after just 4 days of lessons). Perfect ski in/ski out resort for beginners/intermediates

skiNorway who we travelled with went over an above the cause to make sure we had a great break - even when we have to delay 2 of the flights due to our child getting a virus. The rep in the resort was in contact a few times a day to make sure there were no issues and everyone had what they needed. Would 100% recommend!

We had a fantastic trip which was really well organised!

They were very helpful and efficient!

We spend our holiday at the Park Inn Trysil in a 2 bed self catering unit, though booked half board with the hotel. As beginner skiers it was a perfect location, plenty of varying length green and blue runs with lifts enabling you to go down both sides and the mountains and get back to your starting location. The Ski Norway ski school was fabulous. Small classes and all English speaking. Everyone went down red runs before the end of the week. Would highly recommend for beginners.

Ski Norway provided a brilliant service. They were helpful in suggesting a location to holiday and then providing an individual quote to suit our needs. They supplied plenty of information before travelling and were very prompt at emailing answers to all sorts of sundry queries I put their way. On site they were always around before and after ski school and were on the end of the phone if you needed them at odd times.

Lapland is not a place for expert skiers looking for a challenging experience, but for families with young children, or if you want a snowy holiday in a land where the scenery is stunning and the people are polite, friendly, welcoming and give the best customer service I have ever experienced (including in the USA) the Finland is the place to go.

Ski Lapland were helpful and accommodating, all documentation arrived in good time and contact during the holiday was first class
