About
us - holidays in the Pyrenees and beyond
Pyrenean Mountain Tours (PMT) is a small company that was
set up by two friends who were captivated by the grandeur
of the mountains and the quality of the skiing when they first
visited Barèges on a Pyrenees holiday just over ten
years ago.
Since then we have explored further afield in the Pyrenees
chain and elsewhere, building up the small team of professionals
who organise the holidays you’ll discover on this website.
Today, we offer mountain holidays throughout Europe and beyond,
with skiing of all kinds, snowshoeing, hiking, mountaineering,
touring and all kinds of mountain-related activities.
You
choose when to go and how to go
There are no fixed departure dates and no minimum stays on
a Pyrenean Mountain Tours holiday. You can fly, drive or travel
by train and you can swap between skiing and snowboarding
as you like. You don’t have to buy our holiday insurance
and you won’t get "repped" into excursions
once you arrive in the resort. We plan each of our holidays
to suit the needs of individual customers - summer and winter.
Value for money
Our holidays are designed to make maximum use of falling international
travel costs. The Pyrenees are served by a number of the new
‘internet airlines’, which offer fares from as
little as £9.50 return if you book your holiday well
in advance. We will help you find the most economical flights
and book your seats for you if you do not have an internet
connection. For those with more time, rail, ferry and car
travel are a relaxing way to start your holiday.
Family
reductions
Once in the resort itself, our holidays are good value too.
There are reductions for families with children under 16 and
for people over 60 on ski hire, ski passes and ski lessons.
We offer discounts on hotel accommodation for younger children
and our apartments are sensibly priced to accommodate your
group or family comfortably without a crush.
A small, dedicated team of staff
We are not a big company and we select our staff with great
care. Their job is to make sure that your trip runs as smoothly
as possible. Our people in the UK will help you design the
most appropriate travel itinerary, as well as find an apartment,
B&B or hotel that meets your specific needs. They'll advise
on equipment and travel, and if they don't have the answer
they will put you in touch with somebody who does. Our office
staff are ready to answer questions and queries by telephone,
fax or email. Feel free to ask for as much information as
you need. For details, just contact us
At the destination
We employ our own resort managers and minibus drivers. We
also link up with British Association of Snowsports (BASI)
Instructors - two of our staff have BASI qualifications -
as well as local French ski schools. We work closely with
the owners of hotels and apartments too. And we have our own
team of UIAGM mountain guides - many of whom have worked with
us for more than 10 years. We also work with local French
mountain leaders during the summer months.
