The Powder Byrne Story

REMAINING TRUE TO OUR ROOTS

Started by a young entrepreneur Rory Byrne in 1985, Powder Byrne was the first UK tour operator to marry bespoke skiing experiences with quality service, sharing our passion for powder skiing and our intimate knowledge of the Alps.

Alongside our Original Skiing Holidays, we now offer our Summer Resorts Programmes and Air & Space adventure holidays and are proud that the company still embodies our ‘Everything’s Possible’ philosophy to this day.

Client Testimonials

AN ESTABLISHED BRAND THAT YOU CAN TRUST

Sintra – Summer 2019

“We all had a great time. Fantastic food and drink and the children had a ball at the kids’ clubs. They are already asking when we will go back again.”

CEMEX

“PB Events have supported CEMEX in three Executive conferences since 2005. In addition to their focus and attention to detail, PB Events have been fun to work with – not a bad combination. We look forward to working with the team again.”

Adelboden – Winter 2018

“What a fabulous holiday. PB’s attention to detail and removing all the aggravation of a ski holiday was superb. Their client concierge team was a pleasure to deal with and we really appreciated all of their help pre-booking our ski equipment, restaurants and activities.“

Laax – Winter 2019

“Excellent customer service throughout the Powder Byrne team, we wished we had known/booked with Powder Byrne years ago. A real “can do attitude” with a smile.“

Klosters – Winter 2019

“Nothing was too much trouble and every request was met with a ‘can-do’ attitude. This was our first Powder Byrne holiday and we are already making plans for our next!“

Polo Valley – Summer 2019

“Each day brought something different, a picturesque hack out into the countryside, riding skills, and polo techniques to name a few. A particularly special evening was the Asado (an Argentinian barbecue) at the farm hosted by the Polo Valley team. Great company, excellent food whilst watching the stunning sunset will take some beating. The team at Polo Valley were extremely welcoming and incredibly attentive throughout our stay and they met and indeed exceeded our expectations.”

Morgan Stanley

“I can’t thank you guys enough for all the hard work you put into the organisation of our conference. You were just like an extension of the Morgan Stanley team.”

Flims – Winter 2018

“What a fabulous holiday. PB’s attention to detail and removing all the aggravation of a ski holiday was superb. The whole PB team was excellent. The children loved it. Ski guiding was also really fun.”

Lenzerheide – Summer 2018

“Our summer in Lenzerheide was incredibly tranquil and quiet with fresh mountain air and the breathtaking Alpine countryside on your doorstep. We were also able to enjoy a range of family fun, from mountain biking to zip lining, the perfect adventure for my family.”

Crete – Summer 2019

“We enjoyed our holiday enormously. All the team were exceptional in how well they looked after us; suggesting trips, offering advice and help and looking after the kids so well in the Scalleywags programme. Everyone was fantastically friendly and very professional.”

San Cassiano – Winter 2019

“Celine and Mikey were outstanding Powder Byrne Ski Guides and made our skiing experience unforgettable. A fantastic week, well done to Henry and the whole Powder Byrne team, we’ll be back!“
