What
We Do
Downhill
Travel started in 1998 and since we began, we have organised
trips for many HAPPY people.
We
are also very proud of being able to offer all our gust’s
fantastic holidays to Norway from winter 2003/2004.
We started as specialists in skiing holidays, mainly because we
have 17 years experience of skiing and organising skiing holidays
in the Italian mountains.
In
our second year we also took the step into the summer holiday
section and we developed holiday packages taking travellers to
Rimini on the Adriatic coast of Italy.
How
we do it
As
you will find out from our web site and in our brochures, we are
concentrating on active holidays in the mountains and on the riviera.
We
regularly encourage our customers to talk to us about their holidays
and what they want from their next holiday.
It's hard to make everybody happy, but from the amount of positive
feedback we have received, we think that we are doing fine.
Winter
Holidays
As
we mentioned above, our history and expertise are in organising
mountain holidays and our knowledge of Ski Resorts. We originally
chose to specialise in only one country (Italy) and in resorts
we know ourselves, enabling us to build relationships with the
the people that live and work there.
Before
recommending a new resort, we personally spend time there to learn
everything about the place, the people and the facilities.
An
innovation that has proved popular in recent years is our introduction
of Norwegian Guides and Ski Instructors. The feedback we got was
very positive, and we will continue with the same program as much
as possible.
When
you meet them, you will see that our guides are people who love
nature, the mountains and white powder. You will also find out
after you have had your holiday with us that these people never
stop! They will teach you how to ski and then they will find the
best off-piste tracks and the best powder snow for you to ski
in.
Summer
Holidays
We
took our first group to Rimini, on the adriatic coast, during
summer 2001 and we ran the same program for summer 2002.
As
well as Rimini, we are now developing new resorts and other packages,
keeping with our ethos of going there ourselves and trying it
personally before we recommend it to others.
Take
a look at the Summer Holidays and News sections of this site to
find out what's happening this year.
