About this tour
A 16-hour mountain drive from Sydney takes you to Perisher or Thredbo for a day in the snow. Whether you're after ski runs, a snowboard session, or just tobogganing down white slopes, you'll find room to play or simply soak in the alpine scenery. Your own driver handles the long haul each way, with gear hire sorted before you hit the snow and a comfortable vehicle to rest in on the return.
Highlights
- Ski, snowboard, or toboggan at Perisher or Thredbo
- Full gear rental included before mountain arrival
- Private car and driver for entire 16-hour day
- Alpine landscape views from peak season snow
- Hotel pickup and drop-off from Sydney
- On-board water and air conditioning both ways
What to expect
You'll be collected from your Sydney hotel early morning and driven south towards the mountains in a private air-conditioned vehicle. After a couple of hours, you'll stop for refreshments and collect snow gear (skis, board, toboggan—whatever you've planned). Once at the resort, you've got hours to burn: head to the slopes, find a quieter spot for family snow play, or simply walk around taking in the high-altitude views. The driver will be on hand for the return journey, arriving back in Sydney by evening. Bring your own lunch or budget for resort cafés.
Good to know
