By Maxwell Maseko

With 16 ski lifts, and a total capacity of over 28,000 skiers every single hour, Big White has the feeling of a small resort whilst still catering for a diverse range of visitors. This means you're sure to meet new friends on your stay, but you can also find some privacy if that's what you'd prefer. The Big White has it all when it comes to keeping you happy, and that is why its visitors just keep coming back for more, year on year.

Big White also offers expert tuition for those who are just beginning to ski, or indeed for the cubs! Not only is this a great way to get the kids out of your hair for a few hours, but you can also help them maximize their enjoyment of the vacation, by improving their abilities on the slope. Whatever you choose to do at Big White, and wherever you choose to stay, you can rest assured that you will love every single minute, and you'll surely recommend it to your friends and family. So why not consider the Big White for your next skiing vacation, and visit one of the world's most acclaimed ski resorts? With such top notch facilities, and a growing reputation, the Big White can only go from strength to strength, and is something definitely not to be missed.

Geilo in Norway

Geilo's reputation as one the worlds top skiing resorts lies mainly in its ability to cater for family vacations. With over 10,000 families visiting the slopes each year, Geilo also offers excellent tuition in packages it refers to as the "Family Starter Pack". This involves tuition for your entire family for the equivalent of $200 a day. This means, that not only can your whole family learn together, but is also means that families with no skiing experience, can go along and after the first day, they will be able to ski on their own.

It has many great options for accommodation, and with good travel links as well their really is no excuse for not hoping on a plane and going to Geilo today. With thousands of people on the slopes, from different countries and different backgrounds Geilo is suitable for families and teenagers alike with individual price plans starting from $350 a week, and well-known DJs playing at local club venues Geilo is also becoming very popular amongst those teenagers who would have previously seen Ibiza as the only place to be seen on holiday.

St Anton in Austria

St Anton in Austria is a world renowned skiing facility, positioned in the belt that is known as Austria's skiing capital. Only 100 miles from Solden, and with Innsbruck and Otztal close by, visiting Austria on a skiing vacation could not get any easier, or more action-packed. The terrain is varied, and offers excellent opportunities for new skiers, experienced skiers and even snowboarding - that is on-the-up in this region. With 2 mountains, and a top of the range ski lift, skiers have no problems getting from A to B on the 30 000 feet slope. With views looking over the snowy hills and farmland, it is no wonder the area is a thriving hub for tourists, from around the world.

I would have to say that the general feeling around the area is amazing, as you sense the genuine desire for skiing shared by everyone who goes along and takes part. Before I went I had never been skiing before, and I found the tuition excellent. They had multi-lingual skiing instructors on hand to try and aid any new skiers visiting the slopes. I was also taken to a specific slope that was built for new-starts, which also has an easy access point to a lift - perfect for picking that up as well.
