TCB is our Ski Board and Bike business in Ohakune, Mt Ruapehu, which we are in partnership with our son Ben. Adding the personal TCB Ski Tours in conjunction with Aspire Travel Group as part of our business means we can give personal service to all our customers who are looking to travel overseas to ski.

As you are aware, we have been involved personally with the many intricacies and details that make Ski Tours successful and enjoyable for all types of skiers.

TCB stands for “Taking Care of Business” and we want to be able to offer personally lead Ski Tours as well as personal ski itineraries to fulfil all our skiers and boarders requirements through the Aspire Travel Group.

Who are Aspire Travel Group?, they are part of an independent, IATA and TAANZ - bonded Travel Agency network of travel specialists throughout NZ who can plan and deliver competitive flight, travel and accommodation arrangements to all places worldwide.

Tour Leaders; Mike and Vicki Wiggins : Skiing is their passion and Life

Mike and Vicki have been involved in the skiing business for over 40 years and will lead this tour, as they have done to many places in previous years. Mike is a life member of the NZ Ski Instructors Alliance and can offer ski tips while showing you around the slopes.

They have both been involved with ski tours to most NZ ski resorts as well as Canada and the USA. They have toured many USA and Canadian ski-fields by campervan, so they are familiar with all the ins and outs of many of the areas. Ben has also spent time skiing in the USA and Canada as well as the deep powder of Japan and can give you 1st hand information on Japan’s ski fields.  Along with their son Ben, they own the hugely successful TCB Ski, Board and Bike in Ohakune, Mt Ruapehu and Ben and the Team are some of the best boot-fitters and ski-tuners in the country and can offer equipment assistance, professional ski tuning or advice before you head off.

Call into their shop in Ohakune and talk to Mike, Ben or the team about the fantastic skiing available in Japan, Canada or the USA. You can be assured of a great trip with the best advice, great accommodation and skiing.
