Do not use We are Nuco
Accommodation provided was totally shocking for the price. The loo was so small, the door had to be left open to use it. And then “We are Nuco”
retained some of the damage deposit despite the departure instructions they provided being followed to the letter and there being no damage and an immaculate property.

Hi David,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear that the accommodation did not meet your expectations, particularly in relation to space and facilities. The accommodations we use on our student ski trips are typically basic self-catered apartments, to ensure that they are as accessible and affordable as possible. Therefore, the space available within the apartment is sometimes reflected in the price that is paid. That being said, we understand that this must have been frustrating.
We’re also sorry to hear your concerns regarding the damage deposit. Damage charges are applied by the accommodation supplier, and not by NUCO. If you feel like all departure instructions were followed and the retention was not justified, we completely understand why this would be disappointing.
Please could you contact us directly with your booking details so we can review the accommodation allocation and the deposit assessment in detail? We’ll ensure this is checked thoroughly and get back to you with a clear explanation.
Thank you again for your feedback, it’s important in helping us improve going forward.

Barty
Bartek, or as the historians will one day record him, Bart like Bart Simpson, was quite simply the beating heart of the trip.
From day one, he operated with the kind of presence that suggested he was not merely a NUCO rep, but some higher alpine force temporarily taking human form. Need help? Barty boy was already there. Question in the group chat? Answered before your thumb had even left the screen. Mild confusion about literally anything? Barty had it sorted with such ease that it started to feel like he had advance access to the script of the week.
What made him especially elite was that he somehow combined top-tier organisation with immaculate vibes. He kept everything running so smoothly that the whole trip felt effortless, while also bringing the kind of energy that made every day better just by him being there.
And then, of course, there were the dance moves. Not dancing in the ordinary sense, but more a majestic physical expression of joy, rhythm and mountain excellence. Watching Barty at après felt like witnessing folklore in real time. Future generations will speak of it.
He was helpful, hilarious, endlessly approachable and genuinely made the whole experience better for everyone around him. If NUCO were smart, they’d clone him immediately. 11/10 rep, 20/10 aura.

Tignes
Amazing time in Tignes. Reps very helpful and very good value trip. However we were in a different resort of val claret to the rest of our uni who were in le lac aswell as having a broken door which wasn’t fixed all week. However our rep cam went above and beyond to try help us get this sorted and make sure we still had a good trip .

The trip was excellent all round
The trip was excellent all round. The resort was one I hadn’t heard of before and I was pleasantly surprised. The conditions were good and skiing was very enjoyable. NUCO organised the trip very well as keys, linens, lift passes and ski hire were very easy to pick up on the first day. Made the whole holiday run seamlessly.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re really pleased to hear you had an excellent overall trip and that the new resort was a pleasant surprise!
It’s great to know that everything ran smoothly from the start with keys, linen, lift passes, and ski hire all being easy to collect. We work hard to make those first day logistics as seamless as possible, so it’s great to hear that came through in your experience.
Thanks again for your feedback, and we hope to see you on another NUCO trip soon!
Bartek
Bartek was a great NUCO Room Rep, really friendly, easy to talk to, and kept everything running smoothly without making a big deal of it. Always around if you needed help and helped keep a good vibe in the group.

Want to know who to hire?
Tell you more about my experience? Well, I wouldn’t be able to do so without mention of the most goated NUCO rep the world has ever seen: Bartek, A.K.A Bart like Bart Simpson.
If there were an Olympic event for NUCO reps, Bartek would have taken gold, silver, and bronze simultaneously as a result of his almighty omnipresence and omniscience which could be felt with the power of a thousand suns as to how he replied to questions on group chats (which he dutifully perceived as to their meaning since most of them were terribly lacking in common sense and grammar), and his ready availability to help with tasks on the frontlines such as lost ski passes and wrist bands.
Above all, his unmatched perspicacity, coupled with his sheer indefatigability makes him a most trusted component to any ski trip and companion in any realm of alpine endeavour.
But logistics alone don’t explain the phenomenon that is Bartek. The man managed the impossible balancing act of keeping everything running smoothly while also being the undisputed spirit of the trip. Energy at breakfast? Bartek. Motivation for the first run of the day when everyone’s legs are gone? Bartek. Ensuring that après somehow becomes the highlight of every single evening? Also Bartek and his questionably zenith dance moves.
There were moments where it genuinely felt like he had the power of teleportation. One minute he’s helping someone sort out ski hire, the next he’s halfway up the mountain checking everyone made it onto the lift, and then suddenly he appears again at the bar like some kind of highly organised snow yeti.
In short: 11/10 rep, 10/10 organisation, 100/10 vibes. Would trust Bartek to singlehandedly run a ski trip, and potentially even the entire Alpine region.
