Take Me Skiing Newsletter

Take Me Skiing was a UK-based ski holiday deals service operated by Voyager Systems (Travel Division) Limited, trading as Voyager Travel Direct, and registered with ABTA under membership number J4920. The company offered substantial savings on skiing holidays across premier destinations in Europe and North America, with a particular emphasis on delivering exclusive member deals through its email newsletter. Originally incorporated as Alpine Tracks Limited in April 2009 before rebranding, Take Me Skiing catered to skiers of all abilities, from first-timers finding their feet on gentle nursery slopes to experienced skiers seeking challenging black runs. Voyager Travel Direct ceased trading in August 2020.

Ski Holiday Deals Across Europe and North America

Take Me Skiing offered a broad portfolio of ski resorts across the most popular winter sports regions in Europe and North America. Whether you preferred the iconic pistes of the French Alps, the reliable snow cover of Austrian resorts, or the vast mountain terrain of North American destinations, the service aimed to match skiers with packages at competitive prices. Accommodation options ranged from luxury ski-in/ski-out hotel suites to more intimate mountainside chalets and cabins, meaning the service could suit couples, families, and group parties alike.

Member-Only Newsletter Deals

A core part of the Take Me Skiing offering was its members-only email newsletter, which delivered exclusive discounted rates and early-access deals directly to subscribers. By signing up, members could access savings that were not available to the general public, including last-minute offers and special-rate packages. This subscriber model made the newsletter a practical tool for budget-conscious skiers looking to plan winter trips without paying full brochure prices.

Winter Activity Holidays Beyond the Slopes

Alongside traditional ski packages, Take Me Skiing also promoted a range of winter activity holidays for those who wanted to experience the season in other ways. These included:

  • Husky dog sledding excursions
  • Northern Lights tours
  • Snowmobile safaris
  • Lapland winter holiday experiences

These activity-based itineraries broadened the appeal of the service beyond committed skiers, offering families and non-skiers a reason to travel to winter destinations during the peak season.
