And that is a wrap! Our last logo painted over as we come to the very final chapter of our time in the bus industry. Alpine Spirit Coaches is now 100% finished.
Next adventure for Chris & Nadina is about to start “somewhere in Australia”. Come May, we are off!
Thank you to all who supported us and shared their experiences with us and our team. Please stay safe and well, be nice to each other and don’t pick on Collingwood supporters! 🤔👍

A couple of well known people from the old Alpine Spirit annual snow team. Muzza and Anette came in to say g’day. Actually, Muzza really wanted to give Chris a big hug!
It is always nice when we have ex employees come in for a visit. For Nadina and I, that is the real success story of Alpine Spirit Coaches when staff not only become part of the family business, but also become long lasting freinds.
All the best Muzza and Annete. 👍🙂

And that’s our very last touring coach gone! It’s been a great reliable coach! 👍
22 vehicles now all sold and gone to good homes. Now just to sell off the remaining safari tents and safari trailer and then hopefully - Western Australia - here we come! 🙏

Goodbye coach number 55. A well recognised coach in the snow industry and the north east of Victoria. All the best to James and his team from GTC in Melbourne. One more coach to go!

As we finish up our business - Alpine Spirit Coaches, a blast from the past decided to visit. To anyone that knows the bus and coach educational touring industry, this fella (Simon) alongside me, was one of the most requested, most experienced, most knowledgeable, most professional and the very best coach captain anyone could work alongside with. For me personally, it was like having the King of England visit Alpine Spirit Coaches. The way Simon delivered his tours was something that not many others came close to matching. School groups would actually not go if they didn’t haven’t Simon driving.
Thank god I had the time to learn from him when I was a young fella. A true gentleman and legend of the Bus and Coach eductional touring industry. Thank you Simon for everything you have done (and Jan for her support over the many years)….

Congratulations to Leonard Balfour from Balfour's of Mooroopna in purchasing several quality coaches from Alpine Spirit Coaches. Along with a couple of safari trailers with all the safari camping gear, Leonard is gearing up for a big 2024 and beyond. We are so proud to sell our equipment to a leading coach/bus company such as Balfour's, and to a well-respected and honest person - Leonard Balfour. A true gentleman and a bloody nice fella.
Nadina, Chris and the team at Alpine Spirit Coaches sincerely wish the Balfour's team all the very best for years to come.

Alpine Spirit Coaches now only has a couple of Volvo, coach concept body coaches and one more safari trailer to sell! Then our journey in the Bus and Coach industry will be all over and another adventure starts for Chris & Nadina Bonacci!
Stay safe everyone!

"AN IMPORTANT NOTICE"
To all our wonderful clients, customers, business partners and friends!
The day has now come for the owners of Alpine Spirit Coaches and the Snowball Express - Mt Hotham Bus, to say thank you and goodbye to everyone who has ever been associated with and worked at Alpine Spirit Coaches and the Snowball Express.
***Please visit our website www.alpinespiritcoaches.com.au for a detailed explanation.

We have decided to *CEASE TRADING at Alpine Spirit Coaches at COB on 31st DECEMBER 2023
NOTE: We will be actively trading and committing to all new and current bookings up to this date.

"The thinking behind our decision"
The owners of Alpine Spirit Coaches intend to start a new life with a new direction along with their family and friends. During COVID, we lost our way of the important things that meant the most - the quality of life, living and family. So initially, COVID for Alpine Spirit Coaches was first an extremely negative surreal experience which resulted in a positive personal decision being made at the end of it all as to take control on where the owners wanted to be after Alpine Spirit Coaches.

*** Please know that we are not closing due to any financial stress or any other monetary reason*** It is quite the opposite.

"In Summary"
Alpine Spirit Coaches will not be operating any further charters/transfers/tours as of Monday 1st January 2024 and beyond.

We trust that no matter where our lives take us, whatever journeys we are all on, that we all live a safe and long life with the qualities of respect, love, forgiveness, and acceptance of one another.

The owners of Alpine Spirit Coaches (Chris & Nadina Bonacci), along with all our current and previous employees, sincerely wish YOU ALL the very best good fortune and health for future years to come…

Please stay safe and well.
Thank you.

Another successful tour on board with Alpine Spirit. On its way back home with a quick stop in Cooby Pedy.
Thanks to the great young adults and their support staff from Gleneagles Secondary College (and Worldstrides), who entrusted us to show them around outback Australia.
A special thanks to Linda (coach captain) and our fantastic safari cooks Sheryl and Kristen. We love what we do and are so proud of our team!
