Hi all, headed to Tignes with the family and looking for any tips and insider insight!
We are thinking of grabbing a guide for a half-day/day, would love to hear any info/recommendations. Powderhounds has some outfits listed ( https://www.powderhounds.com/Europe/France/Tignes/Ski-Lessons-Guiding.aspx ) but would be great to hear any 1st hand experience.
We have thought about splurging for a Heli run, but if I am reading correctly, Heli Skiing isn't allowed in France, so apparently you can either A) Ski off piste down to a valley and get picked up and brought home by a heli, or 2) Fly over the border to Italy. Any feedback/ideas would be much appreciated-
We are staying at the Lac 2100 and already have the lift ticket to ski both Tignes and Val d'Isere- Thanks for reading!
