      Misha is an excellent instructor
      Our 10 year old twin boys had never been skiing before this holiday. After day three the kids had been competently down a red run. By day five they were parallel skiing. Misha is absolutely superb. She is patient and good humoured. I had no qualms about placing my kids in her care. They loved her.

      BEST Ski Experience EVER!!!
      This is hands down the VERY BEST family ski experience we’ve ever had. Petr got our kids skiing parallel in no time with excellent form. He took us to so many amazing runs in all types of conditions. And, he took us to very unique restaurants on the mountain with the most stupendous food. He was phenomenal at teaching, pacing, instruction, leading and guiding. I personally have been skiing for 40+ years and he totally revolutionized my ski form which increased safety, decreased exhaustion and skyrocketed fun. He is an ACE with children, teens and their parents. He is absolutely the VERY BEST. We cannot recommend him and his company more. If we could do more than ten stars on a five point scale, we would. Simply THE VERY BEST in the business.

      Very good experience with private course
      Our 7 years old son had a 3 days private course with Misha and he loved it. He made not only significant progress, the way how Misha taught him was very good and fun. Also the pictures and video provided were very much appreciated. Misha took time to give us very good tips too. Highly recommended!

      Cheapest but superb
      We booked Janna with only 12 hours notice and we had the most wonderful time. Janna knows Zermatt and all of the ski runs really well and she went to extreme lengths to make sure we not only had the best possible skiying but she also took us to all of the must see points without compromising our ski time. We were a group of 4 3 skiers from starter to intermediate and one who was not skiying at all. Janna catered for all 4 of us in a way that we all got the most possible out of the time she spent with us. Start and finish times were moved to accomodate in any way we wanted. I would have to say we stumbled on Family Skiying by accident but what a luck for us. I will be back alone in March and will not go out any day without Janna. She knows the slopes so well and makes everything work to your ability . Thanks Janna for a wonderful time.

      Above and beyond my expectations!
      I am pleased to recommend Peter to the prospective client. I met him when completing my ski instructor course. Peter is an excellent trainer; his technical and teaching skills are outstanding. I really liked his warm and professional approach. Peter is very energetic and fun to work with! He always strives to provide top notch service and the best experience to the clients. I happily validate the quality of his work and his personal character.

      Best Family Experience Ever!
      I am so sorry for having taken this long to write a recommendation here, I've written somewhere else though. We booked family lessons as we were with 4 children (5~14 yrs) and it was the first ski experience for our youngest daughter. Jana taught young two girls in the morning and took the elder boys up to higher level course. My youngest one could be very difficult to deal with but Jana did a really amazing work for the whole through week. My kids still talk about our wonderful instructors, Jana and Peter, and are looking forward to going back there soon. My husband and I were totally relaxed and we are still grateful that all of us had the best ski experience despite the difference in ski level! I definitely recommend Family Skiing to everyone!!

      Incredible caching
      This was an amazing experience for me, as I am an intermediate skier and Petr really helped my understand how to ski better than I already do. It is clearly obvious that he knew the whole piste, and could estimate my abilities to go with slopes. I really recommend if you want to have a great time skiing and learn as well.

      Above expectations
      We had never skied before and with Petr's super coaching we were able to ski on the blue slope in just three days. Safety was always most important and Petr was very fun to work with and pedagogical. We can really recommend Family Skiing and Petr. /Robert & Céline from Sweden.

      Family Friendly Fun!
      Our family had a fantastic two days skiing with Peter. We had a mix of abilities and a child who was afraid. He quickly got her up to speed and skiing with all of us. Peter was in regular communication leading up to our meeting, on time at the hotel, and then helped our family of five (three children) get on the slopes with all our gear - no small feat! We would book him again for sure! Best money spent in Zermatt!"

      We love skiing and Zermatt is our family favorite!!!
      BEST skiing ever! We have skied in Whistler/Blackcomb, Vail, Jackson Hole, Garmisch/Partinkirchen and all of the US east coast, and Zermatt is our Family Favorite! Not only is there a 0 % crime rate (so you feel very safe with children), but the skiing is amazing! You can spend each day in a different location and never get bored. Truly an exceptional hidden gem!

      Petr is a highly experienced ski instructor and I can’t recommend him more. Having been a somewhat nervous skier when I first met him, he managed to instill and inspire confidence in me. Now I love skiing, all thanks to him! Book him with confidence.

    My 7yr old daughter had a great time in her 3hr private lessons with Bára. We had been skiing the blue runs in the days before her lessons started, and Bára did a great job of keeping her motivated, graduating her to the red runs, and giving her the go ahead to do black runs, which she wore as a badge of honor. By the end of the three days they were skiing all over the mountain, and my daughter had a blast. Highly recommend Bára at Family Skiing Zermatt-- we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.

    SIDE NOTE: There was a tiny bit of confusion during the booking process when we wanted to add on an additional lesson, but it was easily resolved (and probably a result of this being one of the busiest weeks of the season). My impression is this is a small operation, but good people.

    As intermediate skiers, we had an amazing experience with Petr as our ski instructor.

    It started with the communication about the lessons, which was clear, fast and to the point. Petr is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive, and helped us refine our technique and learn more about the fundamentals of skiing. He also taught our beginner kids some of the basics.

    I highly recommend Family Skiing to anyone looking to improve their skiing and have a great time on the mountain.

    We've taken only a half of 2days lessons.
    On the day of morning, she kindly got in touch by Whatapp for how we could find each other, what we need to take with us, the exact meeting point.
    Our instructor was friendly for all ages, as we all adore her by her warm approach. we've improved incredibly fast along individual ability for such a short time lesson. In the end, we're able to ski independently.
    We've all absolutely enjoy skiing with her as we felt togetherness through out the lessons.
    She pointed out safety with her clear instruction. We also had a little trouble buying train tickets on the first day though she waited so patiently us to sort out too. We are hoping to take a ski lesson again in the future.

    I want to highly recommend Family Ski Zermatt. I ski with my two children and I contacted them really late notice and they were able to accommodate us. We had an amazing morning of skiing the resort stress free which is why I am on vacation. We are all good skiers but find it frustrating skiing new areas when they are so massive what is best for all our abilities. I loved having Gabriella being able to lead us around to the best skiing of the day. We are sure to book them next visit for an all day adventure to make my vacation truly enjoyable and stress free.

    We had an amazing time with Family Skiing Zermatt. Petr arranged all the lessons for my wife and 5 year old to do their first ski lesson. The instructors Kristyna and Misha were amazing, patient, and the knowledgeable. My son loved the lesson so much that we did another one. I would highly recommend this team of instructors! Thank you!

    We just got back from our skiing trip to Zermatt in late March 2022. My family consists of me, my wife and two kids age 12 and 10.

    Our skiing was booked with Petr from Family Skiing for 5 hours a day for 6 days. We cannot be more content and happy with our choice!

    Petr has over 20 years of skiing experience and has wealth of knowledge from his travels around the world that keeps you engaged while using ski lifts or cable cars.

    As far as skiing is concerned, we were so happy that we could ski together as a family, unlike previous cases in Italy where the kids had to ski separately from adults.

    Petr knows the Zermatt slopes at the back of the hand and with his experience we were able to choose the slopes we need to ski on each day as the weather became tricky towards the latter part of our trip.

    We also got a chance to ski one day with another instructor named Misha. She was a joy to ski with and took us to many photographic places. The kids had a real fun time with her including a snowball fight.

    I would highly recommend Petr and hope to visit Zermatt next season as well!

    I booked a 3 hours private lesson in Russian language and had great experience! Peter gave useful tipps and gave a good overview of ski area and showed routes that only locals know. I would recommend Peter to everyone who wants to learn skiing in Zermatt!
