At the five-star Wyndham Grand Kayseri in Kocasinan, in Kayseri city centre. The hotel has a heated indoor pool, sauna, spa and a 24-hour fitness centre, and is 6 km from Kayseri Erkilet Airport.

How do I get to Erciyes?

Getting to Kayseri is up to you. Transfers from Kayseri bus station or Kayseri Erkilet Airport to the hotel, and from the hotel to Erciyes Ski Resort, are free; transfer details are shared 2–3 days before your holiday.

What are the payment and cancellation terms?

You book with a $100 deposit per person and pay the rest when you arrive. If your plans change, you get a 100% refund or can change your dates up to 8 days before departure.

What is the difference between skiing and snowboarding?

Skiing is done on two separate skis, snowboarding on a single wide board. On skis both feet move independently, which makes turning feel more natural; on a snowboard both feet are fixed, which takes a different kind of balance and control.

Is skiing or snowboarding easier to learn?

Skiing is usually considered easier at the start because your feet move independently and the movement feels more natural. Snowboarding can take more time and practice for balance and control, but once it clicks many people find it more fun.

At what age can you start skiing or snowboarding?

The ideal starting age for skiing and snowboarding is 6–7. Adults can start at any age.

What should I wear for skiing and snowboarding?

Choose a waterproof, breathable ski jacket and trousers and dress in layers, as the weather can change quickly. Thermal base layers, gloves, a hat, a neck warmer and good goggles are important too, and wearing a helmet is strongly recommended.

Do I need ski or snowboard lessons?

Lessons are recommended, especially for beginners. Learning the basics with a professional instructor speeds up your progress and lowers the risk of injury — and once your stance and movements are right, you will enjoy the sport much more.

What are the most common difficulties when snowboarding?

The biggest challenge at the start is finding your balance. Because both feet are fixed, it is also easier to lose control when you fall. Both get better quickly with practice.
