    Hi

    I’m having my stag next Jan and im planning on going boarding with some mates, now I have been a number of times but the some of the others have never been so im wondering what would be the ideal location?
    We where thinking Ischgl and maybe renting a chalet that would fit 8-10ppl but im not sure if direct ski do houses/chalets do they??
    It also needs to be cheap approx 800 lids per person and that’s everything (flights, board and boot, lift pass, transfare)
    Ill do France or Italy too if it’s good.

    Cheers

    Livigno in northern is excellent, lots of nice beginners slopes and the best bit is that the whole town is a duty free location so booze is dirt cheap! Its a 4.5 hour transfer by bus from the airport though, which is a bit of a pain but its worth it.

    Id have to say Livigno from the reviews i have read, or maybe one of the resorts in Andorra, also dirt cheap.

    But i would avoid going through any tour operators, you will end up paying more. Just do some research on google, book the flights, transfers, apartment seperately, you will get a better deal. Then you can all just rent your Skis/Boards, buy your lift passes, lessons etc when you get there, its no problem to do this, i always do it this way now and it works out cheaper.

    By the looks of things Directski are a rip off now.
