The transfer from Belgrade is not as bad as you might imagine. Yes it takes longer but the roads are better. My friend that I went with via Nis has also been via Belgrade.

I am really sad about...

Not this year unless we suddenly find a last minute too-good-to-miss offer, as we're doing half term in Vallandry, due to one person in our group this yearbeing a teacher.

Definitely want to go...

The additions to the website are great - far more information than most of the Alpine resorts' sites. But where has the interactive piste map gone to - I can't find it and I loved playing with it...

You'll be fine. Check around this site more - I went 21st jan as total beginner with experienced friends - the snow cover was 30cm and thawing but even so there was enough to ski on until we got a...

No, photos are not needed for 6-day pass, they are for longer ones. People get kit (from Konaci) and passes Sunday afternoon, and the pass is then for Mon-Sat. Kit return is 4pm Sat. Pass will...

Well there you go - what more could you want from a holiday!! ;)

If someone wants to pay my fare and clear it with my work and family, I'll go!!!!

If you want to take a look at/print out some useful Serbian vocab including lists of basic foods go to http://www.lztranslation.com/serbian_grammar.html and follow the link to Serbian Phrases. These...

It is true that veggie options aren't common. However if you're half board in the Grand the buffet would almost certainly have something to offer each night as there was a large selection of cooked...

1, Which tour op?
2. Accommodation?
3. Where did the transfer bus drop you/pick you up?
4. How did you & your luggage get between the bus & your accommodation?
5. Where was your ski hire from?...

Have a hunt around the English forum - loads about the resort there including my report of 21-28th Jan staying at Grand. There are also photos to be found on the site. Let me know if there are any...

What snow???? None here at all!

The only pre-bookable tuition as far as I am aware with Thomson etc is group lessons - I booked only my boots/skis and lift pass before going in order to leave myself the choice of what to go for...

Mine were booked through the Thomson rep (Mirianah(?)) and were with the main ski school Elite. The instructor was Sara who was terrific. She used to compete internationally, but retired due to an...

You mentioned private lessons - these are also very reasonable and easily bookable in the resort. I had them as 4 hours tuition per day would have been too much for me and I was even able to discuss...

The only other flight is a Saturday one from Heathrow into Belgrade (which is then a FIVE hr coach transfer!). This is the one Balkan Holidays use.

Thanks! :dziveli:

Before going to Kop I found going down from only the half way point of the indoor main slope terrifying, so being able to do the lot unassisted was a big step forward. I do so...

Having been the most nervous beginner ever known in Kop, I went back to the indoor snow slope at home where I'd had a few lessons before going away. At the 1st attempt I've now passed my level 4,...

No, but I wish I was!!

The folks I went with were experienced skiers and they told me they felt there wasn't clear enough signposting from the tops of lifts to the starts of runs and they also felt the piste map was not...

Well I survived my 1st ever ski trip :ski: and even the FOUR HOURS we spent sitting on a broken down coach just outside Kop on the way back to Nis airport!!

Would I go again?? Yes!

Hi - I got back home late last night after my first ever ski holiday and yes I really enjoyed it. I am probably the most nervous middle-aged learner ever, and I had private lessons from the most...

Yes there does!!!

The tourist site says they have artifical snow machines on some slopes - is that true? Does that mean we would def get some skiing even if no new stuff fell?
