What to do in Breckenridge during the day:
OK so now your saying I have everything booked to get there and stay there now what should I do while I am there ??? Well
I would look into Ski or Snowboard lessons Breckenridge offers both Private and Group Lessons
Do Not let a friend or spouse of yours try and teach you how to ski or snowboard… Let a professional teach you… Your friend or spouse might know how to ski or snowboard but I promise you they don’t know how to properly teach these sports… TAKE A LESSON FROM A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL….
Group Lessons for Adults start at 9:40 am at every Base area of the mountain and start at $120.00 Per Person this does not include lift ticket…
Group Lessons for Children are available as early as 3 yrs of age and cost $180.00 Per child per day this includes lunch and rental gear… That price does not include a lift ticket and may vary in price with age of child and time of year you book…
Private Lessons are the way to go in my opinion… A bit more expensive than groups at $680.00 for a full day private and $480.00 for a half day private but if you really want to learn how to ski or snowboard what better way then ONE ON ONE instruction… However you can put up to 6 people in a 6 hr private lesson and 3 people in a 3 hr private lesson so bring your buddies or your spouse along and split the costs….I would also recommend asking for an instructor with a Level 2 cert or higher and at least 5 years of teaching experience if your gonna spend the money then you want to have an instructor that knows the answer to anything you could possibly want to know…
If you book a private lesson ask for the instructor to call you ahead of time to make an introduction and set up a meeting place for the lesson and a meeting time… Private lessons can start at Breakfast or at a rental shop this will also give you a chance to get to know your instructor….
Any Lesson or guided tour you take in Colorado is lead by a human being PLEASE TIP YOUR GUIDE or INSTRUCTOR THEY LIVE OFF OF TIPS !!!!
