A crucial part of your holiday experience is the apres ski. We have forged friendships with bar and nightclub owners stretching back to the early nineties and use these to create exclusive events that will make your club holiday so memorable. Unlike other tour op’s we can help you build an apres ski programme to suit your group rather than forcing you into the same bars with the same set events. Once you have tailored the week’s events we will print the programme in your resort guide, we can even include details of any themes you will be doing so everyone can get involved.
NEW FOR 2009/10 EXCLUSIVE DEALS IN TUI BARS AND CLUBS
Our new partnership with TUI Travel means we have exclusive deals and access to all the TUI owned bars and night clubs including: Dick’s Tea Bars in Val d’Isere & Val Thorens, Viking Pub in Val Thorens, Crowded House in Tignes, Sphere in Alpe d’Huez and Secret in Les 2 Alpes
Live Music
One of the best ways to get a crowd going is some decent live music. OTP have formed partnerships with numerous live bands and acts that tour the Alps including Dr. Bruce, Mullit, The Monty and Abraxus. Our vast resort contacts allow us to arrange a live band in a venue exclusive to your group to make sure you kick off the night in style.
Alternative Apres Ski
In all of our resort’s we also arrange a schedule aimed at those that do not just want to hit the bars and clubs all night. Dependant on the resort we will make sure you and your group have an alternative activity to take part in each night. Such activities include ice skating, bowling, bum boarding, night skiing, tobogganing, skidooing, swimming, sauna, spa plus many more dependent on resort.
Valley Rally
A huge favourite of all our groups and often the best day on the slopes is the original and greatest Off the Piste Valley Rally, this is a day of daft games and hilarity that leaves most people in stitches! The idea is that teams of between 4 and 6 people go from check point to check point on the mountain (generally in fancy dress) and complete all challenges they are set. For each challenge you will be given points and you know what points mean…
Meal on the Mountain
The meal on the mountain varies from resort to resort but you can guarantee it will include all of your group in one restaurant for one hell of a night! It is a great opportunity to get everyone together for one big meal and to have a fondue fuelled party. In some cases the meal is at a mountain restaurant and once you have finished partying you ski or snowboard back into the village under torch light! (Not available in all resorts)
Race Day
This is available in all resorts and can be aimed at either the serious race team or the club wishing to encourage new potential racers to come and give it a try. It will always be set up by professional and trained staff generally from the resort ski school. They will set it up the course with your preferred style such as slalom, dual slalom, GS etc and where needed an instructor can be on hand to give tips on each person’s technique. Where we have multiple groups in resort we are able to arrange dual slalom races for everyone to compete in.
BBQ & Toboggan
BBQ’s provide a cheap and easy way for you to get your entire group together for an outdoor event. We have catered for anything between 20 people and 700 people so no matter what your group size we can do it. You can either incorporate them into one of the other events such as after a toboggan run, valley rally or race day. Alternatively you can just have a stand alone BBQ with some tunes and maybe a jam session in the snow park – whatever you want we’re sure we can do it.
