The idea was born in New Zealand back in 1999 after my many years of competing in snowboarding then working within the ski industry around the world. From building terrain parks and running events, through to judging contests on the World Cup Tour, I knew I wanted to share my passion for exploring new destinations and cultures with the local connections I’d met along the journey. Nowadays, our network of guides, athletes, staff and loyal customers drives me to keep searching for not only the best snow, but also the best overall travel experiences.

I also want to reaffirm our commitment to all our guests in an industry that is rapidly changing because of the global pandemic. We think it’s important for you to know that we are an accredited, accountable and a responsible business with Covid-19 protocols in place to ensure you’re confident with booking a tour with us in the future. We are a registered member of peak travel bodies, AFTA, IATA and ATTA, and conduct business in accordance with the ATAS Charter and Code of Conduct.

When you travel with Mint you can have peace of mind that you are booking with a qualified and established travel operator with over 20 years of expertise.
