What an amazing experience for our family! After reading a ton of reviews, I booked directly a full day with Simon for my family of 4. We had such a great time and found Simon so beneficial after the 1st day, we booked 2 additional days. These were three incredible days of skiing that we will never forget! The location is jaw-dropping and the skiing awesome. Simon really topped it off. We left better skiers and with a new friend in Switzerland. You can contact them directly through the website to request & book Simon. Highly recommend!

We had the most fantastic ski day with Keira! This is our second time using PDS guides (shout out Simon who is also incredible), and I cannot recommend them enough! We booked Keira for our first day in Zermatt to get the lay of the land. It was a bluebird day and she navigated us quickly over to ski Cervinia. The views were a 10/10 and she even made a reservation for us at Love where we stopped for lunch before heading back to Zermatt. Keira gave us so many tips and trick for the rest of our time there. We had the best ski day with her!!!

It’s been a great experience refreshing my basic skiing skills. I’ve had the privilege of being trained by Matthew. He welcomed me on the slope at Sunnega with a shining smile and cordial conversations about skiing techniques. He’s well-versed in teaching and his instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. He reminded me of the core foundations of skiing posture and balance. We did various skiing drills, which I found fun and relaxing. Matthew is a great instructor who will help you polish your skiing techniques in a short time. I took four hours of lessons with him over two days, and I now feel confident skiing on any slope around the Zermatt area. Thank you so much, Matthew, for taking the time and effort to help me master these techniques. It’s been an unforgettable learning experience with the best skiing instructor ⛷️🏆

Olly is the nicest ski instructor we have ever had! He is a very good teacher, he is kind, funny and very knowledgeable around the slopes! He also suggested two very nice restaurants to go for lunch and made all the arrangements in order to book us a table! If he’s here next year, we will definitely book him again!

Ari and Keira made my family feel truly special during our time in Zermatt. Their approachable and caring nature created an environment where everyone felt comfortable, each family member received personalized attention, making us feel valued and supported. Their emphasis on safety gave us peace of mind as we navigated the slopes, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience without worry. The warmth they exuded not only fostered a sense of belonging but also turned our ski lessons into cherished family memories. Thanks to Ari and Keira, we left the ski school not just as better skiers, but with a renewed sense of connection and joy as a family.

I have booked a private, full-day, one-week ski lesson with Simon Wells from PDS Snow School. This was my first time in Zermatt, and Simon made the ski trip unforgettable. Not only did he improve my skiing skills, but he also guided me through exploring the mountains in Zermatt and Italy. Simon is one of those rare instructors who has a clear teaching syllabus in his mind. Having had many instructors from various mountains before, I can confidently say that Simon is the most structured one. I highly recommend PDS Snow School and, especially, Simon Wells.

Magnus is a disciplined and highly skilled instructor who taught my daughter and friend many skiing techniques in a personal, friendly, and motivating way. He knew exactly how to challenge them and help them improve while maintaining a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. In addition to the technical aspects of skiing, he also introduced them to the lively and social side of Zermatt, making the experience even more special. A top instructor and a great personality – highly recommended!

Had a snowboarding lesson with Carrie and it was magical! She gave me a lot of confidence and taught me some important skills that helped me with the rest of my trip! She also has amazing energy and is a lovely person overall! Highly recommend 🩷🩷

I love this school:) If you want to learn to ski and feel comfortable, this is the place to book an instructor. The owner of the Simon school is the coolest person in Zermatt

Had the best time with Kiera, she was very helpful at accommodating both me and my friend as we were at different levels of skiing. Also showed myself around all different runs and helped me feel confident skiing by myself! Perfect 3 days skiing

We had an excellent two hour ski lesson with Ari yesterday. We had not been skiing for 8 years but after our lesson we feel much more confident and more ready to enjoy our skiing in Zermatt. Our confidence was enhanced through Ari’s encouragement, guidance and professional instruction- aided by the taking of videos which he shared with us to assist with improving our technique. The lesson was time well spent to improve our skiing and we can highly recommend Ari to anyone looking for an experienced and expert instructor.

This was my first ski lesson and I found Keira very patient. I had skied before but she picked up on things I was doing wrong and helped me to understand the fundamentals during my lesson. Keira was very good and advised on tips to stay safe in tricky situations on the slopes I felt a lot more confident afterwards and would highly recommend!

Simon was the best! Highly recommend! He acted as a guide and instructor. Our family of 4 varies in skiing ability and he navigated the slopes to find a route for each of us. In addition, he helped us all improve as skiers. He was a game changer for our Zermatt ski experience. The weather wasn't great and a lot of lifts were closed. Simon navigated the slopes so that we avoided the crowds and were always skiing. He had a great personality and made the day fun. He helped us with selecting restaurants and even reservations. He also took great pictures with his phone for us. Ask for Simon if you want a perfect day!

The lesson was amazing! Our instructor Lola is such an exellent coach, she's patient, friendly, and very insightful for us that has no experience at all. We really had fun learning this new winter hobby!

I had Bozhin as an instructor and both my husband and I enjoyed class with him. I’m a basic skier, my husband is advanced and we both did progress in our level. Bozhin is a great instructor that levels you up with each run.
