France | Group Hosted Tour | 2027

Méribel & Val d’lsère, France

Dates: 30 January –  13 February 2027 (14 nights)

Tour Leaders: Malcom and Rosie Dawson

Malcom and Rosie are back in 2027 to lead another exciting group tour to France.

Carefully curated high-end hosted ski journey.

Skiing the French Alps is special on its own – but doing it with a group, a host, and two of France’s most iconic resorts makes it something you remember long after the snow melts.

This journey takes you from the charm and glow of Méribel in the Three Valleys to the legendary slopes of Val d’Isère, home to high‑altitude terrain, dramatic peaks and the famous Espace Killy. Across both weeks, you’ll explore long cruisers, tree‑lined trails, wide bowls and big‑view summits, with each day offering a totally new rhythm.

In Méribel, you’ll ski between villages, chase sun‑drenched pistes and wind down in chalet‑lit streets that feel straight out of a postcard. Then it’s on to Val d’Isère, where the scale gets bigger, the terrain gets bolder, and the mountain energy kicks up a notch. With airport/train transfers sorted, lift passes included, and a host to bring the group together, you get all the freedom you want – with none of the stress.

Experience an unforgettable ski adventure in beautiful France, combining thrilling skiing with a safe, social, and stress-free escape.

This year, Rosie and Malcolm led a group to Dolomites, following incredible 2025 Aspen and 2024 adventures in the Dolomites and Park City, Utah. Seasoned tour leaders with a deep love for the mountains, their passion for snow—on and off the trail—is truly unmatched.

Having met while working in the ski industry at Mt Ruapehu, skiing has been at the heart of their story ever since. Together, they’ve explored world-class slopes across Canada, the USA, Japan, and Europe, embracing the unique experiences each destination offers.

Between them, their years of skiing across New Zealand and the Northern Hemisphere make them the perfect pair to share the magic of the mountains.
