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! Our travel Ninjas will be patiently waiting to pick you up from the airport and take you straight to our first accommodation in the heart of the city where we begin the most epic adventure. 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…
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, grab those last minute essentials, before heading back to the hotel for some dinner. It’s a feast, trust us!
Snow suits on the ready! Today’s the day we finally hit the slopes and see what this is all about. We meet for breakfast nice and early 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 gnarly for you. Got all the gear with no idea? No need to worry. 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 much 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!
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, explore the town or even take a trip to the hotel’s Spa. Whatever the mood, there’s an option for you!
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 great day on the slopes it'll be time for us to head to the spa to relax in the hot tub, chill out in the steam room and experience the magic of a sauna after skiing for 3 days! After chilling out, 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!
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, 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!
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.
