Truly unique, All-Inclusive winter sports breaks.

At the Metro London Ski Show, Action Outdoors, showcased its unique all-inclusive winter sports package offering unbeatable 7-night packages for as little as £408. Its truly all-inclusive deals include ski-hire, ski-pass, full-time instruction or guiding, travel, accommodation and food (breakfast, lunch and dinner!). 

David Robertson, Director of Action Outdoors said: “We are really excited about the package we’ve been able to put together.  Imagine that for only £408 you can get on a coach in London, arrive in top class French ski resort and ski for 7 days with no hidden or extra costs whatsoever. Literally, the only thing excluded is beer or wine.”

Action Outdoors has assembled its unbeatable package by teaming up with Europe’s largest young people’s holiday provider, UCPA, and Eurolines, the largest scheduled operator of coach services to Europe, to offer the best value package on the market.

The French-based organisation, Union Centres Plein Aire (UCPA,) runs amazing value for money holiday centres, all with an entirely original atmosphere targeted at 18-39 year-olds.

Eurolines, ultra low-cost European arm of National Express, is operating its Eurolines Ski service direct to the French Alps for the third year running. The direct service is designed to maximise the amount of time people have in the resort. Aimed at the budget traveller the coaches are the guaranteed low cost and hassle-free way to travel to Europe.

Philippe Vergez, UCPA International Sales Manager, is very enthusiastic: “We are delighted to have Action Outdoors as our UK partner.  The synergy of Action Outdoors, UCPA & Eurolines creates a unique formula for British clients, which offers incredible value for money.”

The UCPA ski centres are truly unique according to Action Outdoors’ Mark Gillis: “The atmosphere is hard to describe – with up to 200 young Europeans in the centre there is a constant buzz.  Because you ski and board together in groups then it’s really easy to meet everyone.  This is not your typical ski holiday.”

Mark goes on to describe the accommodation: “We have designed our packages so that people are spending most on the things which really count. So the rooms are clean and comfortable, but basic.  The quality of the instruction is however second to none – all the instructors are young and passionate about their sport.  The food is top quality – always a good choice and always freshly prepared.”

Action Outdoors caters for all levels of skiers and boarders and most packages include full time instruction or guiding. 

“For beginners this is ideal – 4 ½ days of top quality instruction is simply the fastest way to learn.  Top skiers or boarders don’t miss out either with opportunities to join our off-piste courses. The full time guides always seem to be able to find the fresh powder slopes” says David Robertson.
