Feel like my whole family improved so much even in the few days that he was our guide

My family and I skied with Luca for a few days in Zermatt and we definitely would have had no idea what we were doing without Luca. He was so helpful not only with making reservations for lunch and getting us around the mountain but also giving us tips on how to ski better. I feel like my whole family improved so much even in the few days that he was our guide.

Jumped off the beginners slope to the blue run quickly, and improved rapidly

I found Luca as an instructor for my girlfriend, who was a first-time skier at that time. Luca's communication and time/location planning was timely and detailed, was easy to meet him at the resort. I booked two days of lessons, and was very impressed with the progress my girlfriend made during those two days - they jumped off the beginners slope to the blue run quickly, and improved rapidly. The feedback I got from my girlfriend was that Luca was very knowledgeable, was noticing all the problems and chose the best ways to address those, moving at the convenient pace but also fast enough to feel progress. I could easily recommend his services.

Strongly recommend for skier at all levels

Luca was fantastic and have been a lovely host throughout the days we were with him. Even when weather conditions are not optimal for skiing, he was quick to think on his feet and provide other activities recommendations in the area. On the slopes, he is a fantastic coach and his lessons focus on the basic technique of skiing which I think it can go a long way for people want to do advancing skiing in the near future. He was super passionate about this work and most importunely effective communication on and off the slope, definitely would strongly recommend for skier at all levels.

If you ever think about trying ski and are in the region stop looking!

Learning to ski with Luca has probably been my best learning experience, all sports/leisure included. Besides being extremely competent, Luca is empathetic, precise and communicates very effectively. Learning how to ski as an adult raised in Central Africa was a very exciting yet intimidating idea, but thanks to Luca I felt safe, guided and supported during the entire process. I arrived not even able to wear skis properly, I left with increased skills, confident in my ability to ski, and inspired by how he managed to get me to exceed my goals. Plus Luca has a very positive presence which makes the experience quite enjoyable! Wether is for a few hours or a few days, if you ever think about trying ski and are in the region stop looking. Luca is the one!

Truly kind hearted, gentle and hugely experienced ski instructor

Luca had our four year old twins for their first ski experience, he was incredibly attentive and had them off the nursery slope within three days onto their first blue run. The children would not stop talking about Luca and how much they loved skiing. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We are definitely booking him for our next holiday. He is a truly kind hearted, gentle and hugely experienced ski instructor.
