Tomorrow rejoice as the sun rises over the mountains - a new day to do it all again. The Ski Buzz concept was inspired by the sheer pleasure of sharing great skiing days with like-minded (and similar standard) mates; including partners, friends or new skiing buddies. We invite you to join a small group of like-minded skiers to revel in a unique alpine experience on an escorted ski tour visiting two spectacular regions in Austria enjoing the unique local hospitality that Ski Buzz offers whilst staying at beautiful five-star accommodation.
Behind the concept Ski Buzz is run by Australian siblings Yvonne Verstandig and Daniel Burger. Growing up in Melbourne, winters were spent skiing at Mt Buller, and school holidays saw the Burger family skiing overseas as often as possible. During their University years both Yvonne & Danny spent their weekends ski instructing at Buller, with Danny even having a gap year or two instructing in Austria. Eventually careers and family took priority over life on the slopes and those carefree ski days became a distant memory. With Yvonne a director of Y Travel and Daniel an architect and development manager, Ski Buzz is their passion project to help others experience their love of skiing, and a chance for them to get out of the office and onto the slopes once more! Whilst Yvonne spent most of her childhood being tormented by older brother Danny, their love of skiing has brought them together as adults with a mission to create the perfect ski adventure for like-minded passionate ski bums. The experience Ski Buzz 2022 is heading back to the Spring sunshine & beautiful blue skies of its roots - Austria.

Kitzbühel We kick of our ski safari ‘warm up’ in the charming medieval town of Kitzbühel. The picturesque town has a clear sense of history and the pedestrianised town centre within the old city walls provides a great experiential start to the tour with its numerous cafes, shops, bars and restaurants. Covering 185km of marked pistes – topped up by an additional 45km of marked ski routes – Kitzbühel has a surprisingly large ski area, and with its recent investment in snowmaking has extended its snow reliability. Kitzbühel is the perfect ski mountain to warm up those ski legs from their long hibernation. Having said that, Kitzbühel is famous for having one of the most demanding runs of the FIS downhill calendar, the Hahnenkamn.
Zürs Zürs am Arlberg is one of the most exclusive winter resorts in Austria, in what is regarded as the snowiest area of the Alps. With the opening of the Flexenbahn in 2016, all ski resorts in Arlberg are now linked to create the fifth-largest skiing region in the world; extending from St. Anton & St Christoph in Tyrol via Zürs & Lech to Warth & Schröcken in Voralberg. The area, with 88 lifts offers over 300km of high alpine diverse skiing with long runs, reliable snow and quality groomed pistes for intermediate to advanced skiers; and an abundance of off-piste terrain. It is in Zürs, Lech and St. Anton that we aim to work on your powder skiing and off-piste ski touring* and take on some more challenging runs. *Subject to snow conditions
