1 Day Snow Trip! [Mount Buller] - Super cheap! (from: $99)

== A note on our cheap tickets == Yes we have discounted tickets, but they are limited. We have always tried to provide lower prices (and yes, these are normal return ticket) as many of our customers are students & foreigners. However if you want discounted tickets, they are on a first-come, first-served basis - so planning ahead really helps. === 100% REFUND GUARANTEE IF THERE IS NO SNOW! === If there is not enough snow on the mountain for skiing / snowboarding then we will cancel the trip and refund customers. We regularly watch the snow reports for snowfall reports. === Mount Buller snow season bus trip === Note: despite our name (New To Melbourne!) we get a lot of locals and non-foreigners - especially for this service (our snow transport). The Mount Buller snow field / resort is a must see during winter and is incredible for Instagram photos - but it’s for a very limited part of the year. === What’s included === This is a 1 day bus transfer to Mount Buller (with return back to Melbourne). We are travelling in a comfortable 57 seat coach (bus) with air-conditioning / heating. Included in your ticket is also the “gate entry” (which is normally $50 or so). We are probably the most affordable transport option to the snow (as we are with our other trips). It’s great for families, couples, kids and for all kinds of activities like: take photos (for instagram / facebook), tobogganing, sledding, skiing, snowboarding, build snowmen/snow figures, sightseeing or have a snow fight with friends. ► Return coach transport to (and from) Mount Buller ► We stop at snowboarding / ski equipment store (their staff can advise and fit you on the day if you want to ski/snowboard etc.) ► 10% discount on snowboarding/skiing equipment and clothes (exclusive to New To Melbourne!) ► Mount Buller resort Entry Fee / “Gate fee” (please note: lift pass not included) (Important: this is normally $50 for those that drive themselves but is included in the New To Melbourne ticket price). === BUY TICKETS HERE === [https://www.newtomelbourne.org/shorty/0ohkor](https://www.newtomelbourne.org/shorty/0ohkor) IMPORTANT: most of our bus services to Mount Buller sell out.
