Prices for hotels, trains and other land
services can change constantly. This makes
fixed price grids increasingly complex and
not always accurate. This is the reason we
now show “from” prices in our brochure,
which will provide you with a good
guideline for the selected package. The
“from” price is available for a specific travel
period mentioned clearly in the grey box
“Inclusions”. Please note that our pricing
excludes flights which can be added by our
flight experts to your package.
The packages shown in this brochure
can be changed and amended any time
upon your requirements. In most cases
the from price is shown in a 3* hotel and
2nd class rail journey if not mentioned
otherwise. We offer a flexible approach to
our holidays. Simply book the suggested
itinerary as described or customise it
with our suggestions. You can find various
options for upgrades, extension nights
and optional excursions and activities.
If you can’t find exactly what you want,
contact us and one of our specialists
will tailor-make the best travel option
for you. All prices will be confirmed and
guaranteed at the time of booking.
ACCOMMODATION
Accommodation in all hotels, whatever
the rating, is usually in a standard twinbedded
room, unless otherwise stated.
Please take note that most hotel rooms
in Switzerland are equipped with a ‘Swiss
twin’ (one frame/single mattresses/ two
duvet covers). Also, many double / twin
rooms only take a maximum of one extra
bed for children.
Check-in times are usually between 2pm
and 3pm whilst check-out can be from
11am to 12pm on the day of departure. If
you have a later flight the hotel will in
most cases agree to hold your luggage
for a few hours after check-out. A later
check-out or use of a day room (at
additional charge) may also be an option
and can be arranged locally
SINGLE ROOM
Although supplements are payable for
single accommodation, it should be noted
that the standard size and location of
single rooms are not always as good as a
twin/double room (even if the twin/double
room is booked for single occupancy).
GUEST CARDS
Some cities and towns in Switzerland
provide guest cards for local transport and
other discounts to guests staying overnight
at a hotel. This can be a very convenient
and cost-effective way of exploring a local
area on public transport. Guest Cards are
always issued by the hotel.
The roads in Switzerland are well
developed and easily accessible. A
motorway vignette is required when driving
your own car in Switzerland. This can be
purchased beforehand through us. Car
Rental companies based in Switzerland
include vignettes in their rental prices. If
you are taking a rental car into Switzerland
from France, Germany, Italy or Austria you
will have to buy a vignette at the border.
Expect queues in the high season.
INTERNATIONAL RAIL
All our packages can also be combined
with train travel from neighbouring
countries Germany, France, Italy and
Austria into Switzerland. We offer Eurail
tickets as well as point-to-point tickets
on DB, Trenitalia, TGV Lyria services, SNCF,
Italo / NTV and many more.
