Vail's ski slopes are legendary—more than 5,000 acres of terrain, famous back bowls, and endless groomers that make it one of the top ski destinations in the world. But if it's your first time here, or if you want to sharpen your skills, guided ski lessons and tours take the experience to another level.

Our beginner lessons are not just about learning the basics of skiing. They are also about safety and building confidence. Our experienced instructors focus on the fundamentals—stopping, turning, and feeling secure on green runs. Families often book these together so kids and adults can learn at the same pace, under the guidance of our skilled team.

Already know the basics? Our intermediate and advanced lessons are not just about improving your skills; they're about having fun on the slopes. Our instructors help you fine-tune your carving, navigate steeper terrain, and build confidence in moguls or powder. Many skiers say a single day of focused coaching makes the rest of their trip way more enjoyable.

For those who want to see more of the mountain without the stress of planning, guided ski tours are a local favorite. Instead of focusing on instruction, your guide shows you the best runs, hidden stashes, and efficient ways to navigate Vail's massive terrain. It's perfect if you're short on time and want to skip the guesswork, allowing you to relax and enjoy the beauty of Vail.

Private lessons are also available and offer the most flexibility—set your own pace, focus on precisely what you want, and enjoy priority lift access. Whether you're here to learn, improve, or explore, ski lessons and tours make sure you get the most out of Vail's legendary slopes. With private lessons, you'll feel catered to and valued, as your experience is tailored to your specific needs and goals.
