arrival day & welcome to barcelona
Barcelona baby! The day you’ve all been waiting for has finally come so let’s get straight into it and get this snow on the road! Spend the day settling in, exploring and checking out the famous hotspots around. It’s our first and last night in this vibrant city and we’re going out with a bang. Did someone say tapas? We’ll grab some dinner, get to know the TruCrew over a pitcher of Sangria or two and get ready for an incredible 7 days together. Trust us, it’s all downhill from here…
next stop andorra!
Rise and shine, today’s the big day! Make yourselves comfortable as we board our private coach and make our way to Andorra. Once checked in, in the afternoon, we’ll get settled and head straight out to get our ski gear fitted ready to hit the slopes first thing in the morning. We’ll explore the town, and grab those last-minute essentials, before heading back to the hotel for some dinner. It’s a feast, trust us! With snowy mountains all around and the excitement of Apres in the air! So get ready to strap on your skis and carve up the mountains as the pistes have you grinning from ear to ear. You know what they say... It’s "snow" or never, amigos!
ski by day, apres ski by night!
Ski gear on - it's time! Today’s the day we finally hit the slopes and see what this is all about. We'll meet for breakfast before heading out to grab our skis and passes and get this show on the slopes. Whether you're a downhill diva or a snowboard boss, there's no mountain too steep or mogul too big for you. Got all the gear with no idea? No need to worry - we've all been there. Our travel Ninjas have got you covered and will guide you to your pre-booked ski lessons (please note these will need to be arranged at the time of booking) & you’ll be a pro in no time! The day is yours to get lost in the mountains before we meet up later in the afternoon for some well-deserved apres ski. You better believe things are about to get SNOW fun! We’ll dance the afternoon away with an Aperol or two in hand before grabbing some dinner at the hotel and heading straight out for our first night out in the Mountains!
ski, snow, boards & mountains
You may have a fuzzy head this morning but trust us when we say there’s nothing a day of skiing can’t fix! We wake up, grab some breakfast and reminisce on our epic first day in Andorra. Strap on your ski boots and pole-ish your skills, cause it's time to hit the lifts once again. We’ll take a ski-esta up in the mountains, grab a cocoa and update those insta stories because you know the deal… if you didn’t post about it, did it really happen?! As the day winds down, we take one last run before heading back down the mountain and meet with the rest of the TruCrew. The afternoon is yours to enjoy so if you’re feeling up to it, hit the apres ski once again or explore the town. Whatever the mood, there’s an option for you!
the slopes are calling!
Morning Ski Legend! First we'll grab some breakfast and pick up back where we left off, grab our gear and head back up the mountain to show off all the skills we’ve learned this week. Remember, practice makes perfect - so don't be afraid to try some new tricks, even if they end up being a bit of a snow-fall. After another FAB day of skiing, it’s time for yet some more après-ski fun! We'll hit the bars up high, get dancing on the tables before making our way back down for the evening. Grab some dinner and dance the night away in our favourite bar ‘Mojito’ with your new besties or take it easy and rest up ahead of our last day! We’re going ALL OUT!
our last full day of ski
Goood Morning! It’s our last day in Andorra so you best believe its going to be EPIC! Fill yourself up at breakfast because you’re gonna need it. We’ll hit the slopes for one last time together but this time we are making it fancy! By fancy we of course mean fancy dress...so remember to pack your onesies, best fancy dress outfits or crazy head gear! It's our final day on the slopes so let's get all the sick content, do that 360 you’ve finally mastered or hit that first black slope if you’re up to it! We’ll stick together and as the day comes to a close, we reflect on all the incredible memories we made this week. It’s safe to say Andorra has taken a piste of our hearts! Of course we’re ending this trip on a high with one last trip to the one and only ‘Mojito’ bar. We are OUT, OUT! Here’s to making ever lasting memories with the TruCrew (your new BFF’s) and enjoy a well deserved fiesta!
chilly (chilled) check out
It’s our last day and tears are all around. The time has finally come to wave ski ya later to Andorra. We grab some breakfast, hit the road on our private coach and make our way back to Barcelona. We’re here to help plan the next steps of your adventure, whether it’s onwards, homebound or back to bed for a week of catching up on those early starts. The last 7 days have been unreal, and we hope to see you again soon for another adventure. Andorra skiing, completed it mate! Until next time, TruFam.
