Val D'Isère Ski Holidays

Val d'Isère

Val D’Isere ski holidays offer all inclusive, high quality service.

Located at 1,850m, Val d’Isère has more traditional Alpine charm than many resorts with parts of the ‘Vieux Village’ dating back to 1664. Despite having expanded over the years the town retains its character with newer developments generally using natural stone and wood.

Val d’Isère, as a ski holiday, has a deserved reputation as a great resort for food, drink and socialising. There are nearly 100 different places to eat and drink when you include those  on the mountain. Be sure to visit La Folie Douce if you fancy a mountain party accompanied by dancers and musicians; it’s an experience few venues can rival.

The partly pedestrianised town centre is lively in the evenings offering a huge choice of aprés ski options from a quiet drink to partying until 4am if you’ve the energy! Bananas or Dick’s Tea Bar are always a popular option. There’s a free bus that runs until the early hours in high season throughout the resort for the night owls.

All of our chalet packages include our London Heathrow to Lyon flights along with airport transfers. The transfer from Lyon airport to Val D’Isère is approximately 2hrs 45mins.

For guests wishing to travel by train, the nearest station is Bourg-Saint-Maurice. A transfer from Bourg-Saint-Maurice to Val D’Isere takes approximately 45 minutes.

Driving to Val D’Isere is another option and we are able to supply detailed directions. The driving time from Calais is around 10 hours. We recommend Eurotunnel FlexiPlus** service that gives greater flexibility and avoids boarding queues.

  • The parish church, a prominent landmark in the town centre, was built in 1664.
  • A hailstorm once halted the Tour de France as it passed through Val D’Isere.
  • Val D’Isere hosted an infamous outing for Edina and Patsy in an episode of Absolutely Fabulous.

All of the above make it the ideal destination for your next ski season or Val D’Isere ski holiday!
