8 days  / 7 nights  Premier Guided Beaver Creek, CO Skiing Adventure
March 2008 - Family of 5 with a nanny

"Our family recently took a trip with Adventures Around the World and had the time of our lives. We have two very active young boys and a 15 month old daughter, so planning and scheduling is critical when we travel. Adventures Around the World provided the type of first class door to door service that truly let us relax and take a break from managing it all. Our trip was expertly handled from start to finish and we were able to really enjoy ourselves while Mike and Kevin planned and executed all our activities. When plans changed, as they often do last minute with small children, Mike and Kevin never flinched and kept smiles on their faces with a can-do and relaxed attitude.  They quickly changed gears, thought out new plans and our adventure and fun continued without skipping a beat. The Holmquest's service and professionalism made a huge difference and provided a stress free week.

Our six year old was thrilled to go to ski school while my husband and I spent quality time together on the mountain. Both Mike and Kevin skied with us throughout the week and at times took our nanny and other two children
out for activities. Mike and Kevin were sincere, enthusiastic and easy-going, happily pulling my daughter around in a sled and running up the side of the mountain with my four year old son to sleigh down.

The Holmquest brothers are truly warm, genuine and fun tour guides. They are great people to be around and great to do business with.  I can't wait to plan our trip with them for next year."
