Kensington Tours, known for its custom private guided tours, has launched a new collection of ski experiences called “Ski the World, Differently.” This initiative responds to the growing client demand for sport-themed and adventure travel, offering access to top-tier ski destinations worldwide.
Advisors are invited to a live webinar on Thursday, Oct. 17, at 2 p.m. ET to learn more about these new ski experiences. This session will provide detailed information about the offerings and how to present them to your clients best.
“At Kensington Tours, we are always listening to our clients and seeking to create personalized travel experiences that align with their passions and interests,” said Helen Giontsis, President of Kensington, in a press statement. “Our new ski itineraries are a direct response to the increasing demand for adventure and sport-themed travel. We are excited to offer these unique and exclusive experiences that cater to avid skiing enthusiasts that combine both access to some of the world’s most exclusive ski destinations as well as a full array of apres-ski and other seasonal recreational offerings.”
Kensington Tours’ Two-Phased Rollout
The rollout of these ski itineraries is planned in two phases, encompassing eight countries and 16 renowned ski resorts. Phase one focuses on popular destinations in Italy, Austria, France, Switzerland and Japan. Each itinerary combines luxury accommodations with slope-side convenience, including ski passes, equipment rentals, private guides and one-on-one lessons. Various dining and spa options are available for clients interested in off-slope activities.
Phase two will expand the offerings to Chile, Argentina and Canada, providing options for both hemispheres. This expansion ensures year-round skiing opportunities for your clients.
These new experiences offer meticulously planned itineraries and logistics tailored to individual preferences. From fresh powder runs to charming alpine villages, each ski trip is customized for skiers seeking unique experiences.
Clients can choose from 8-9 day getaways or extended 10-12 day trips, including private guided touring.
In Switzerland, an 8-day Zermatt Resort package includes a 4-day Cervinia pass for cross-border skiing between Zermatt and the Matterhorn. Guests stay at Hotel Alpenhof near the Sunnegga lift, enjoying top-tier amenities and access to the Gornergrat Glacier’s challenging runs.
A 9-day Italian Dolomites adventure offers ski-in/ski-out access and personalized rentals. Clients can explore Dolomiti Superski’s extensive terrain or opt for a private helicopter descent on Marmolada. Non-ski activities include snowshoeing and sledding.
In Austria, an 8-day Kitzbühel Resort package includes a 5-day KitzSki pass, a private guide, and personalized rentals. Guests stay at Hotel Tennerhof, which is conveniently located near lifts and the village.
