Dec 28 - Jan 05

Meeting a person like Alex in life is really worth a lot. And I consider it a great luck that I got into a ski tour in three countries with Alex Sidelnikov.

The main criterion of the trip is, of course, skiing. And this part of the tour was fulfilled a thousand percent and beyond all praise. Sun, sparkling snow - different regions. We were lucky with the weather in all regions.
And in this regard, Alex thought out everything to the smallest detail: what time to leave, where to rent skis, where to buy boots, where to eat on the mountain and helped to master the skiing technique⠀

Alex did not forget about our leisure time either. We had a farewell party for 2019 in Courmayeur, on the mountain in an Italian restaurant. In a cheerful friendly company with dancing on the tables, shouting in all languages: Happy New Year, delicious red wine and an extraordinary steak. Then we cheerfully and amicably celebrated the New Year in the chalet. On January 1, we had a spa day in the thermal springs, although the chalet has a jacuzzi and a sauna, we needed a rest from the skiing, so the thermal spa was what we needed. On other days, we dined on Savoy cuisine, drank delicious Aperol prepared by Alex. To brighten up our departure, Alex sang songs to us with a guitar, we ate fresh oysters and drank champagne. ⠀

And now I look at our photos, smile happily and really want to come back. Alex! Thank you for the vacation! Friends, thank you for the cheerful friendly company.⠀

"Guys, these were unreal eight days!!!! Fabulous beauty was added by the crazy mood of our newfound friends and seasoned with Alex's care - this is a fabulous cocktail!!!!!

Every year, guests from different places and countries come to my tours. This season (2021), Magadan and Vladivostok finally reached Chamonix! 👍⁣⁣⠀
And, as always, the vacation with our brothers and sisters from Dagestan, Kyiv and Tbilisi turned out to be incredibly friendly and fun! ⁣⁣
Apparently, the love for the Alps is a manifestation of kinship of souls!

⁣⁣I am very pleased that I gained a lot from this trip - both new friends and riding skills, as well as good equipment and new taste preferences!!!!! ⁣⁣⠀
For me, this was a fascinating journey that left an indelible mark on my memory!!!! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Alex, thank you and my respect for your work!!!!!!!!!🤝"

This year I was lucky to be in the company of wonderful people, whom Alex Sidelnikov managed to gather again! Almost everyone has been to Alex in Chamonix, some even many times. Why do people go again and again???

It's just that everyone goes first of all to Alex, confident that everything, absolutely everything will be top-notch, and people in love with skiing and the mountains, great conversationalists and merry fellows, and our chalet, and excellent food, and a full-fledged rest with songs to the guitar after skiing in the most beautiful places, and even the weather, which was wonderful! It's great that Alex manages to unite such different people into a single whole)

Thank you for a great time, for the homely welcome and care for everyone ❤️❤️❤️. See you in the new seasons🥰

Evgeniya and Igor

January 7-15

My husband and I are such extreme skiers... If we translate it all to a car trip, I am the driver who crawls along in the far right lane at the speed of a city bus, and my husband is a racer in a sports car, racing along the left lane. That's how we ski: he is on the black slopes, I am on the blue, sometimes red. Every time I carefully examine the map of the slopes, choosing a slope for myself.

And then there is Alex, he would lead me to a slope at any place and say - look, it's soft, now we'll roll in, and we would roll in... Alex would race with Igor on the steep and fast ones, and with me on the blue-green ones, he was everywhere, he managed to do everything and he was always smiling... How I love smiling people! Cheerful, kind, smiling people who know their business, feel their business... Who know who to bring coffee to, and who to bring cola (yes, cola is for me). Where the most delicious desserts are, and where you can dance on the slope). Alex Sidelnikov - you are wonderful, you are amazing!

There were 10 of us, we did not know each other before that trip, and now we are all like family and friends! Such a "brotherhood of the chalet" was formed and Alex united us!

And yes, the sun shone on us all days, and there was always snow under the tips of our skis. No matter what kind of fog shrouded our chalet in the mornings, there was always sun on the slopes and clean snow under the skis. Not ice, not stones, but snow! Alex, thank you for the magic of the slopes, the sun, the snow, the food, the company, the chalet with its spa, fireplace and sauna! For everything! I will try very hard to come back.

And you will also find SPA-therms, a jacuzzi and a sauna in a Chalet with a view of Mont Blanc, with a fireplace and great wine-cheese-aperoli evenings, sometimes even with French guests from the local town, of which Alex has an incredible number. I would like to point out that Alex is known and loved by locals and wherever we go, he is greeted as the dearest friend and we immediately become the dearest guests! They give us discounts and seat us at the best tables - it is so nice, important and pleasant!

Can you imagine, my luggage was lost and delivered by the airline only a day later, but I did not even feel any discomfort because Alex immediately organized all the equipment for me and I did not miss the most important first day of skiing!

Wow! How cool it was! All the words in the world are not enough to convey to you all the delight and energy that I experienced! You have to experience it! You have to repeat it! I will definitely go again! EVERY NEXT DAY surpassed the emotions of the previous day! EVERY, can you imagine?!

I am writing this review now and my breath is again taken away by the events I experienced! I recommend, recommend and recommend Alex's author's tours a hundred times more! I can easily answer your questions, write to me in Direct @routalevtina. I really envy myself to this day and am very grateful to Alex for the implementation of such an amazing idea!

Friends! I wish everyone well and happiness, and that is why I am writing a review about Alex's author's tour, which I took from January 6 to 15, 2023. I am incredibly grateful to Instagram, which sent me an ad about Alex's tours back in the summer of 2022. But at that moment, I just scrolled through the feed, envied those who had access to it and did not even save it:)

I couldn't wrap my head around it: three whole countries! In a chalet with a view of Mont Blanc... However, I am a determined girl and if I have something in mind, I will not deny myself:) Then the fairy tale turned into reality! As soon as I sent the application, Alex immediately wrote to me, sent a detailed program, called, we discussed all the nuances, then again correspondence and calls, I doubted for a long time. Alex is great! He professionally and clearly removed objections, told and formed the need. It turned out that he has been involved in author's ski tours for 14 years, has a huge experience and the necessary knowledge and skills, I trusted him and everything that I got from this trip exceeded all my wildest expectations! Do not hesitate for a minute, buy a tour and enjoy well-planned days, with a pre-thought-out route taking into account the weather in the ski regions, with pre-booked tables in family-backroom restaurants for "your" audience, where you yourself will never get!

Evgeniya

January 20 - February 12

Hello everyone! I want to share my bright and positive impressions of the "Ski tour in Chamonix with Alex Sidelnikov"! Let me introduce myself, Evgeniya Gorban; Active experience of various ski trips - 15 years; If you want "real alpine skiing without borders" - then you have come to the right place.

You will be provided with excellent company! The chalet is comfortable, 4* ski resorts in Europe are inferior; all the necessary attributes are available; a fireplace, sauna, jacuzzi, washing and drying machines - the dream of anyone staying at the hotel! But, all this is not the main thing! The main thing is the skiing region!!! A company of like-minded people; a daily changing skiing region; new, unexplored slopes, routes; and so for 10 days!!!

With leisure, everything is also great! True, there was not always enough energy for it; Alex combined a ski tour with a gastronomic one; He managed not only to introduce different ski resorts, but also to the different cuisines of three countries; Reserving tables in restaurants both on the mountain and in the valleys allowed us to save a lot of time, and try the most delicious from the chef! Special thanks to his wife Tatyana Sidelnikova, who contributed positively mood and supporting us when needed. I am writing a review and thinking, now I will praise and there will be no places left for 2024! You need to book now!

January 20 - February 12

Alex, hello! The feeling after returning..., as if I didn't see or finish something.

It's like getting up from the table a little hungry! There is so much more that is in Chamonix that I don't even know.... That I can't fit into one trip. The first one turned out to be tempting! Maybe after the next trip I will have a more conscious review.

I bought new boots in the best boot fitting in Chamonix SunglardSport - I recommend it!)) Special thanks to Amanda!

January 30 - February 12

I spent a wonderful 2 weeks in Chamonix, in the French Alps, with the wonderful organizer Alex Sidelnikov. During this time, we saw many beautiful slopes, enjoyed excellent weather, and also improved our skiing skills. Personally, I discovered something new - free riding, which I am extremely happy about. I recommend it to everyone, as it is an unforgettable pastime and a great experience! Thank you!

New Year

A lot has been written about how cool and awesome it is to ride. For me, the trip was about the fulfillment of relationships. We are all adults, accomplished individuals with already formed character traits. Did we come to ride? Yes. And also to live together, celebrate the New Year, joke, buffoon, cook, and do many household things.

When eight different people gather under one roof, contacts are inevitable. After all, if there was one "stinky one" in the house, the atmosphere would probably be ruined for everyone. From the very first moment, I noticed how Alex knows how to smooth out "corners", knows how to communicate, create "WE", unite, listen, knows how to be grateful, and accept criticism. These are all human qualities. The role of the organizer and leader of the group is noticeable and important. The responsibility is very big ... And I thank you, Alex, for the fact that YOU assembled a wonderful team and led us along this path. And also for those couple of hours on the mountain, after a difficult descent. Just having a human conversation, it relieved and brought back the joy of being there. Well, and in conclusion I will say that the team, we were a single organism that lived, breathed, and the relationships were filled with ease and a caring attitude towards each other."

02 - 16 February

"What could be better than the mountains? - Only the mountains!" - I thought, and another winter vacation was decided. All that was left was to figure out where to go. Very luckily I saw Alex Sidelnikov's ad on the forum, and I was already in his group! Mountains, sun, various ski areas in different countries, gorgeous slopes! Total delight!!!

I couldn't even think before that I would ever get off the piste... With the freeride school organized by Alex, it turned out that everything is possible! It was a super trip! New acquaintances and a great time! Thank you for an amazing vacation, for the positive and a sea of ​​emotions!!! Best wishes, Angelina.

January 7 - 16

It so happened that unexpectedly for ourselves we got involved in this event called "Alex Sidelnikov's Ski Safari". Looking ahead, I will say right away that we have never, not for a moment, regretted it.
Unexpectedly because, having a lot of experience in traveling and organizing them, including to the mountains, a vast geography, we could not even imagine that we would decide on something like this. We always gathered groups of friends, sometimes large ones, and considered this the only acceptable solution for us. This year, we did not find anyone willing to go in January, we decided to skip it. And suddenly ...

I came across an offer that attracted me for several reasons:
1) the ability to choose ski areas depending on the weather, snow, wind direction, mood, stars in the sky and God knows what else;
2) no need to make this choice ourselves;
3) enthusiastic reviews, the veracity of which I did not consider it possible to doubt;
4) the unusualness of such an experience for us;
5) a conversation with Alex, who dispelled the last doubts, including about age, training, etc.

The decision was made and paid for. No questions arose, although in fairness, I will note that 2.5-3 months later (a couple of weeks before the trip) a seditious thought flashed: something is quiet, is it suspicious, is everything okay with the trip. But a message came, then a tour chat was opened in WhatsApp, and off we went... It was amazing: fun, comfortable, cheerful - there are not enough epithets. The team, consisting of people who were initially complete strangers, from different parts of our country, despite the differences in views, characters, tastes and passions, turned out to be wonderful and became close and dear. Perhaps we were lucky (I always want to think that we are so good), but, as far as I know, everyone is so lucky. And this means that Alex deserves credit. He has an amazing way of winning people over from the first second of communication (even on the phone) and imperceptibly sets the mood for the upcoming vacation. That is why those who come are already disposed to each other, friendly and attentive. And a separate book can be written about Alex's reverent attitude towards us.

All questions and wishes, whether it was renting, repairing and exchanging skis, buying groceries for us, or wanting to walk around the city, were easily and, it seems to me, with pleasure resolved by Alex. Alex perfectly organized and implemented all the declared options. Unique skiing regions in three countries, absolutely comfortable skiing for all levels and the omnipresent Alex is always nearby, ready to give advice and support (it seems to me that he even agreed on the weather, and for the entire period). One day after skiing, a climb to the L'Aiguille du Midi observation deck (3842 m). Excellent restaurants organized by Alex: both authentic Savoyard cuisine and wonderful Italian on the mountain. Thermal baths for those who want them on a day of rest. Sauna and hydromassage pool in the apartments. Fireplace, giving comfort and warmth every day - an indispensable participant in our evening gatherings with a glass of something, with conversations, music, games, films and songs. Wonderful atmosphere and people, friendly and ready to help. Having a huge experience of vacationing in apartments, I can say with confidence that such breakfasts have never been. Everything was done easily and cheerfully!

February 30 - 12

The decision to travel with Alex was made quite quickly. My husband and I were looking for an option to go skiing in France with other skiers. And then there was an ad on Instagram about Ski Safari in Chamonix. I went to the website and received a lot of information, filled out the form and Alex called me back and answered all the questions I had. In principle, Alex inspired confidence from the first minute of the conversation and I realized that everything would work out for us. The decisive factor was the opportunity to ski in a variety of ways (every day in a new place) in France, Italy and Switzerland.

Of course, there were doubts - how to transfer money to a private person whom I don’t even know. For those who are especially afraid, Alex suggests arranging everything through a travel agency. This is, of course, a little more expensive, but here everyone makes their own decision. Numerous reviews on the website, photo and video reports about real past trips should help you make your choice. And so we went... in advance, Alex brought together all the participants of the trip in a WhatsApp chat, which helped us get to know each other right away on the plane (we were all flying on the same flight) and then through the chat we received all the necessary information about the weather and exchanged common photos.

The people turned out to be our own, skiers, not afraid of any obstacles. At 8 am, sitting in a bus, completely ready to leave for the slope - no problem, and let's go for a walk around an unfamiliar city or go to the thermal baths after skiing - easy.

In general, we were always well-fed and cheerful)))) but the most important thing is the spirit that accompanied our trip for all 14 days. Everyone got what they wanted: good sunny weather, fresh snow, Freeride School, the opportunity to ski in different places on well-prepared trails or on powder.

The way Alex instantly made decisions in the morning and, depending on the weather, changed plans for which valley we would ski in today - is worthy of admiration. On the slopes, and in the cities, he always brought us to the best restaurants with excellent cuisine. We also had fun relaxing after the slopes: karaoke, singing with a guitar, lots of jokes, sauna, outdoor jacuzzi... we did everything together and with pleasure. We were charged with emotions and health. I fell in love with all the members of our team: Zhenechka, Sarah, Andrey, Sasha and Denis - I miss everyone terribly already and hope for further meetings)))) Alex, thank you very much for this opportunity. I hope that we will come to our cozy chalet more than once)))

When you have more than one trip to different countries and in different groups behind you, you involuntarily try to understand what exactly this trip was different from the previous ones. There were chalets in the Alps and trips by car to different skiing areas (Ski Safari), there were skiing trips with friends and with people unfamiliar before the trip... But I can say that special in this journey was the attitude of our «ship commander» — Alex Sidelnikov, who is not only in love with these places himself, but also did everything so that we would fall in love with them too. This is how they welcome their relatives and do everything to make everyone feel good and comfortable when visiting.

Routes were thought out to the smallest detail, skiing areas were chosen taking into account the weather, attention was paid to each of us and advice was given, all obstacles for a comfortable stay were smoothed out. Many thanks for that! I was glad to meet interesting people!

February 19 - March 05

This is already the fifth season in a row in Chamonix (France). What surprises me most is the peculiar contrast. On the one hand, everything seems to be familiar and known. On the other hand, each time you discover something completely new, especially where you least expect it.

A new freeride school is organized in each tour. Even after three days of training, sometimes you manage to significantly improve your skiing technique. The Alpine mountains, French or Italian cuisine, excellent wine, an open-air jacuzzi with a view of Mont-Blanc simply break the ordinary everyday life! Life gains additional meaning! I think that such an experience is especially important for those who lack pronounced diversity in life or who would like to fill it with maximum drive

Dedicated to all ski riders! A week has passed since returning from France, but apart from the physical condition, nothing has returned yet.) All thoughts, desires, impressions remained in Chamonix, in a beautiful chalet with wonderful and very hospitable people in Les Houches (Chamonix, France). We remember how in October, in a matter of hours, without hesitation, having accidentally seen on the Internet an offer from Alex and Tatyana Sidelnikov, we booked a trip.

To say that we did not lose, is to say nothing. It is... a fairy tale!!! Super skiing, awesome company, cool get-togethers! Those same forgotten feelings returned to us, when we first found ourselves in the mountains on skis. The rich experience of Alex and Tatyana, knowledge of the surrounding Mountains and the most comfortable weather, allowed us to easily explore the unknown. Every day is better than the next, new resorts, untouched snow fields, cafes with excellent cuisine, you can't list all the impressions! We recommend it to everyone, our family is there next season too. Respect to our entire friendly company!!! Alex and Tatyana - a huge thank you! It was great! P.S. We stock up on avalanche backpacks and equipment, it will be even better!)))

Where to go skiing? — I had to think about this question back in the fall when planning my winter vacation. And by coincidence, I learned about the author's tour France-Italy-Switzerland by Alex Sidelnikov, which I chose in February.

"Dear friends, There is very little time left until our meeting! I hope that your mood is cheerful, your skis are prepared, and your soul is asking to go to the mountains! Bon voyage!" — Our adventure Ski Safari began with such a wonderful greeting! We had a great time skiing for 12 days on the snowy slopes of France and Italy, admired the fantastic landscapes of the Alps (Les Tour, Courmayer, Grands Montets, Les Contamines, Kandagar, Saint Gervais ...), and also spent unforgettable, full of impressions days in Les Houches and Chamonix: a French warm welcome on the day of arrival from Comte and Prosecco, evenings by the fireplace in a cozy atmosphere, a fabulous chalet with a view of Mont Blanc and affectionate neighboring cats, visiting Savoyard restaurants with traditional Burgundy snails, oyster parties and a jacuzzi with champagne overlooking the most beautiful peak of the Alps, as well as the iconic number of the whole program - the star duet "Les Huches" Alex Sidelnikov and Yuri Nebolsin!)) Unfortunately, our meeting in Chamonix ended very quickly and, summing it up, I would like to once again thank everyone who made it happen. interesting, fun and full of positive emotions: Yuri - for the ideology, organization and creative approach; Igor, Vladimir and Andrey - we couldn't have managed in the kitchen without you; Umakhan - for tolerance; Angelina - for the company; Alex - for his positive attitude, which charged everyone up for the year ahead! All together - for a great time!

A Snow Fairytale. Two weeks have passed since returning from Chamonix, and my thoughts are still there — on this amazing trip, which I called “social freeride”.

For two years I had been eyeing Alex Sidelnikov’s author’s tour. I wasn’t planning on going, as I had my own company for skiing pleasures. I was just reading interesting articles and reviews from participants. And so it happened that my company didn’t get together, and I decided to try going with strangers. At first it was a shock — two weeks with strangers (sorry). Hence the name “social freeride”. Unexpectedly, this turned out to be only an advantage of the trip for a number of reasons: interesting people, no one talks about work, different, friendly and welcoming. It was obvious that people were enjoying life on this trip.

I will note the main advantages of the tour: Opportunities to visit different ski areas, taking into account the weather conditions and Alex's experience No TV (or rather, there is one, but in a separate room), and there is an opportunity to communicate A wonderful chalet and a beautiful place in the Alps I have never seen so much snow in which to roll around. In part, the trip turned out to be a gastronomic tour! The oyster and scallop evening was magnificent! Great company! Galina! Just an amazing person! Freeride school is not for me due to my skill and ability ... Special thanks to Alex for the riding lessons. I realized that in order to "hear" and understand the lessons, you need to fall in love with the teacher a little :)sorry) Definitely a must go for those who want to improve their riding. If you just want to relax like a pensioner, then this is not for you) I did not go to freeride school, but I am proud to know those who went through it and ride divinely technically and beautifully:) Brave Heroes! Thank you all very much for such an unforgettable wonderful time! Special thanks to Tatyana - a lot depends on her positivity, beauty, optimism and responsiveness :) Tatyana, Alex, good luck and prosperity to you!

I love the mountains and skiing. That's probably why I ended up on Alex Sidelnikov's team and in the chalet "at Alex's". I don't regret it. I don't regret anything: neither the time spent, nor the money spent, nor the piece of my life spent. I liked it. A lot. I recommend it, but not to everyone. Only to those who really want to ski, improving their technique and increasing their own safety, and for this purpose it won't be hard for them to get up so early every morning on vacation, so that at 8:00 they are already completely ready to sit in a minibus. And so it is every day of this trip. These are the kind of skiers that mostly gather at Alex's. I would like to apologize to the members of the group for the few delays: guys, I'm sorry! I won't do it again. This season.

The group of people who came together for the trip was just great! It was only my second time in Alex's group, and all the others, in my opinion, were even more so. I want to say a big thank you to everyone for their patience, mutual assistance, goodwill and just for the company!!! Personal "thank you!!!": To Alex for doing it after all! He organized and held this tour with dignity. To Tanyusha - for a wonderful example of riding and a good mood! To the doctor - for the professionalism shown in treating injured comrades and complete recklessness, which was the driving force of our group. To Maxim - for sparkling humor, 1000 aphorisms, quotes and geosyncline. Now I know what it is! To Yura and Dima - for their prudence, caution and positivity. One only has to remember the expression on Dima's face on the second day after visiting the restaurant "At Annushki's", when he came to a state capable of perceiving information and I announced the bill. To Sasha - for being helpful and constant help in the kitchen. To Sasha, Lenuska - for wonderful company and constant jokes! This year's trip took place in a difficult economic situation, but it did not stop us. There was, as stated in the tour program, a freeride school with a wonderful mountain guide Mark, there were trips to restaurants with a celebration of the Doctor's birthday, there were visits to thermal baths, etc. We personally assessed the degree of Mark's wonderfulness with Lena, when the next day after finishing the school, probably feeling like ski-freerider does, we climbed along the traverse into such rocks... Everything is known in comparison. In general, to the attention of everyone who wants to spend their vacation positively, with benefit for health, ski equipment, in a wonderful company: Join us!!! See you next ski season!

Tatyana

New Year

For me, a trip to Chamonix for the winter holidays is just some kind of magic. The first snowfall was only a day before our arrival, before that the resorts of Chamonix were closed for skiing. So we are a lucky company :) A very cozy chalet: incredible panoramic windows, a fireplace, a jacuzzi and, most importantly, an amazing view of Mont Blanc. And, of course, a wonderful group of people who gathered in the Alps to go skiing and celebrate the New Year. Everything is very conveniently organized - you don't have to rack your brains over where to go skiing or where to buy groceries. Alex looks at the weather every evening and chooses a resort for skiing, and at 8 am our team is ready for new adventures.

Every day new slopes, new landscapes and views. Special thanks to Alex for tips on skiing technique and wonderful photos. Unexpectedly for myself and again thanks to Alex, I discovered freeriding, and from my own experience I understood why so many skiers crave fresh and unplowed snow in the mountains :) Leisure time was also varied and interesting - hockey, evening walks and get-togethers in Chamonix, a thermal complex in Italy, where we soaked on January 1 (this is exactly how the beginning of the New Year should be :)), a trip to Annecy. Taking this opportunity, I would like to sincerely thank:) our company, namely Alex, Sergey, Katya, Nastya, Sveta and Maxim for cozy evening get-togethers, laughter, positivity, jokes, help and interesting stories from life Looking through the photos, I mentally return to the mountains again and again. It's a bit of a pity that this is already part of history, but I really hope to return there again (the freeride school is waiting and calling :) "It is impossible to feel the taste of a dish by looking at it in a picture. Even photographs of the mountains cannot fully convey the feelings you experience when you are in the mountains.” Therefore, friends, if you want to see everything with your own eyes, don’t sit still, come to Chamonix to see Alex! :)

Alexander

March 15 - 24

I got to Alex at the end of the season in the final group from March 15 to 24. This year, for objective reasons, most people refused to travel, a number of schools specializing in organizing group trips to ski resorts were canceled. I found out about Alex on the ski.ru website in an ad looking for travel companions and, as time has shown, it was a HUGE LUCK:

1. Alex provides an exclusive service that I have not encountered in my 30 years of skiing experience - this is the opportunity to visit 4 zones in Chamonix in 7 skiing days, each of which can be considered a separate full-fledged resort, plus 2 resorts outside the valley - Megeve and the Italian resort of Courmayeur. At the same time, visiting the resorts is determined by the choice of the best weather conditions and the presence of fresh snow.

2. Of the entire group, I was the only one who wanted to ski off-piste, i.e., in fact, I received a personal guide. Alex talked me out of the legendary descent in the White Valley as if I was worn out and instead offered a more interesting route, the Big Wall from the peak of Grant Monte. The route is very interesting, in several places with a serious slope and tricky couloirs, so the adrenaline was enough.

3. We were 100% lucky with the weather - out of 7 skiing days, 2 days were skied on virgin snow, and on really fluffy snow, which is unusual for March. For example, last season, out of 36 days of skiing, I managed to catch such snow only 4 days (2 days in Les Arcs and 2 days in Monte Rosa) - the efficiency was many times higher than the average statistics.

4. The best days of the season were two days of skiing after a snowfall on virgin snow in Courmayeur - huge fields and only your footprint in the snow, sun and blue sky. It is difficult to describe in words, even photos do not convey all the beauty of nature. What is made of the sun, What is made of the sky, What is made of the wind, Speed ​​and alpine skiing, What is happiness, Lives in our souls. (M. Kalinkin "Cheget melted").

5. Accommodation in a luxurious chalet with panoramic windows from the floor overlooking Mont Blanc, a jacuzzi next to the house. The house itself is located in a natural park where roe deer run. Two cats lived next door - for information on who will go next season: French cats do not respond to kitty-kitty.

And of course the main Hero and Director of this holiday of life, without whom none of this would have happened - Alex. A man who lives in the mountains, puts a piece of his soul into each descent, sharing his happiness with those who come to his skiing groups. Alex, may God give you strength and energy, you are doing a great job and giving your guests a sea of ​​​​joy and positivity. But once blinded by the sweet music of flight, you will no longer be able to see clearly. (M. Kalinkin "Cheget Melted"). See you in the new season!

03 - 16 March

We just returned from our trip and are eager to share our impressions. An amazing, bright, active vacation that will forever remain in our hearts and memories!!! We are snowboarders and this is our sixth trip to the snowy Alps and the first in the format offered by Alex. Having a variety of experience in ski resort vacations (weekly tours through tour operators with accommodation in hotels and skiing in one region), what did we expect, what were we afraid of and what did we get in the end. Having trusted Alex, we expected a variety of skiing, pleasant excursions and something inexplicably special. We were afraid of staying in a chalet without the usual service and in the company of strangers and long daily trips. And what did we get? An absolutely amazing vacation in every respect!!! Let's tell you more about it:

1. Chalet. Very cozy, spacious, with a set of everything necessary for a comfortable stay.

2. Friends. That's what we'll call our team. Completely different, special, interesting, smart, cheerful, energetic, reasonable, ready to help... Thanks to our entire team for sharing these magical white days with us and to Alex, who has such amazing guests!!!

3. Excursions. Days of respite, in such a physically intense vacation, are vital. A visit to the SPA and a trip to the picturesque French town of Annecy not only restored our strength, but also added pleasant impressions and memories.

4. Food. Visiting the best restaurants and having the most delicious meals would have been difficult without our loyal friend and advisor Alexey. With him, the doors to the culinary world of France and Italy were open to us. And the farewell evening exceeded all expectations: fresh oysters, Chablis, a warm friendly atmosphere, joy, words of gratitude, songs with a guitar... and the desire to come back again. Alex has an amazing ability to bring people together and make their vacation relaxed, reliable, memorable and special.

5. Skiing. It is impossible to describe. You have to experience it yourself!!! We visited completely different ski areas, which is impossible to do on a regular tour. The transfers were not tiring: pleasant music and picturesque views from the window made the road invisible. Every day new trails, new, absolutely stunning views, new opportunities and endless delight. Both skiers and snowboarders of various levels of skiing easily realize their wildest skiing dreams: be it high-speed descents on perfectly prepared trails or freeride. Thank you, Alex, for a perfectly organized and planned vacation. We trusted you and can confidently say that you kept your word and everything was AMAZING!!! Thanks to Alex's wife - Tatyana for the positive attitude and example of a happy family. Thanks to every member of our friendly team: Alexander, Alexander and Olga, Andrey, Elena, Alexander for being with us during these wonderful days!!!
