Organising a ski trip can be complicated, however, with the right planning it can be done quickly and efficiently.

Whether its ski touring, piste skiing, husky sledging, paragliding or enjoying a relaxing spa while marveling at the mountain tops, Chamonix really does have it all.

Chamonix finds itself just 1hr 15 minutes away from Geneva international airport in Switzerland. This airport serves as a hub for various international and European airlines. Return flights from London to Geneva with EasyJet can cost as little as £76 including a 23kg hold bag.
