1.4 Hour Beginner Cross Country Skiing in Grand Teton

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 31 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $198Our pick

Review of Grand Teton’s four-hour beginner ski tour, with small groups, wildlife, instruction, costs, rentals, and practical booking tips.

“What a fabulous morning! I signed up alone for the 4 hour cross country ski excursion and it turned out to be myself and one other person with our tour guide Bo. We quickly got underway and had an interesting conversation about Jackson Hole, the Grand Teton National Park, and what wildlife we might encounter. Bo is very personable and knowledgeable.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 17 reviews · 5 days (approx.) · from $283

Review of Vail and Beaver Creek ski rental delivery, with in-room fitting, hotel pickup, slope-side help, pricing, and practical tips.

“Everything went smooth, delivery was on-time, representative was knowledgeable and friendly. Boots actually felt better than the boots I own. Equipment was delivered the evening before the first ski day, so we can start skiing right from the very morning, that was really appreciated. Drop-off was no brainer: just left everything at ski valet of our hotel on the last ski day, texted the company that we were done skiing - that was it! The price was reasonable too. Definitely recommend, and will use again in the future.”
