Am contemplating first skiing trip (kids are 9 and 7 and complete beginners, as am I) and thinking of Norway (mainly because of the quieter easier slopes and other activities like cross country and ice skating, which appeal to me more).
I have a couple of questions:
-am unsure whether Feb or Easter would be better - is Easter reliable for snow or only in certain areas?
-any recommendations of resorts/companies/accommodation?
-I know it is feasomely expensive and food can be ropey, would we save a lot by booking independently or would it be best to go with a company for our first time, to get ski school etc or can we book all that separately (and does it have to be in advance?) what's the best way of eating well - I really don't want to be disappointed by the food...
Anything else I should know?
