Questions before travelling
Can I travel from my home city in India?
This itinerary starts in Munich and ends in Geneva. Tell us your departure city so your planner can discuss flight options and airport arrangements.
What does "small-group" mean on this tour?
The group travels together in a small luxury coach (14-15 seats) rather than a full-size coach, which allows access to narrower Alpine roads and closer village stops. Ask your planner for the exact group size for your dates.
Can you arrange vegetarian or Jain meals?
Share your food requirements when you enquire. Your planner will confirm what can be arranged for each part of the journey before you book.
Can we choose our room arrangements?
Tell us how many adults and children are travelling, their ages and your room preferences. Ask your planner to confirm hotels, room options and any additional charges in your quotation.
Is this trip suitable for someone with limited mobility?
The itinerary includes Alpine excursions, ropeway and cable-car rides and walking in town centres. Describe any mobility needs so your planner can confirm walking, stairs, transport access and suitable arrangements before you decide.
What about visas, payments and cancellation?
Ask your planner to explain visa assistance, the documents needed, payment dates and cancellation terms with your quotation. Review these before making a booking.
