Special Notes

  • Currency: In most of Western Europe, the currency you will require will be Euros. However, you will need Swiss Francs (CHF) when travelling in Switzerland. It is possible to make purchases in Euros at selected establishments in Switzerland, but please note that change will typically be given in CHF. We advise passengers to exchange any spending money before they travel. Whilst on tour, exchanging currency can be very inconvenient, and not all places we visit will have ATMs or accept credit/debit cards. We also recommend passengers keep some change in coins on hand, as using toilets in many parts of Europe is not free. Please note that USD, GBP, or travellers' cheques are not widely accepted at locations on this tour.
  • Distances: An important point to note whilst on a touring holiday is that some long journeys are unavoidable, especially when travelling from city to city. It is advisable that passengers carry necessities that they may need for the day such as water, dry snacks, cameras, etc., in their hand luggage. For this tour, it should be noted that the travel times are extensive on this tour.
  • Hotels: Please note that not all hotels on this tour will have air conditioning or kettles. If you require warm milk for a baby, we recommend bringing your bottle warmer and milk supply. Passengers may also want to carry a small travel iron and hairdryer, as these amenities may not be available in all hotel rooms. In some European hotels, double occupancy rooms may consist of two single beds pushed together. We work with such hotels, so please be prepared for this arrangement. If you use additional services such as the phone, minibar, or pay-per-view TV in your room, these costs are not included in the tour package and must be settled directly with the hotel upon checkout. The maximum occupancy per room on this tour is three people. However, from March to May, some hotels may only accommodate a maximum of two people per room. 
  • Meals: Passengers can choose from various meal options, including vegetarian, Jain, or non-vegetarian. Please note that Jain and Halal meals may not always be available. We ask that passengers inform the tour manager of their preferred diet on the first day of the tour. Meals are served as pre-set buffets, and menu choices are not available. Only tap water will be provided with meals. On some days, a pre-set continental meal may be served. Breakfast will be provided at the hotels, usually in a designated dining area, and typically consists of a continental selection including tea, coffee, bread, cereals, fruit, and yoghurt. Lunches are generally vegetarian, though there may be occasions when a non-vegetarian dish is offered. Dinners are typically served in a separate dining area within the hotel or at a restaurant. If you have any concerns about the ingredients in a dish, please consult your tour manager. If you require specific allergen information, please get in touch with us in advance so we can assist you accordingly.
  • Pick up and Drop off points & Times: Passengers are advised to arrive at their designated pick-up point no later than 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Your invoice will clearly state the exact pick-up location, address, and time. If you have selected a pick-up point outside of Wembley, Southall, or East Ham, your precise pick-up time will be confirmed closer to your departure. On the return journey from the continent, we are scheduled to arrive at Dover or Folkestone between 20:00 and 21:00 hours, after which we will proceed to the original London pick-up points. The anticipated arrival time in London is between 22:30 and 00:30 hours (the following day).For passengers using our pick-up points services outside of London, transportation may be arranged via private car, minibus, or alternative coach for your journey to and from London. In rare cases, you may experience a wait of up to an hour for a connecting transfer upon your return. Passengers will receive a confirmation call from the local operator the day before departure to finalise details. Please note that we reserve the right to adjust pick-up times up to 12 hours before departure if needed. For a comprehensive list of available pick-up points, please get in touch with us directly for more details.
  • Visas & Passports: When travelling to Europe, it's crucial to ensure your passport and visa requirements are in order before departure. Your passport must be valid for at least three months beyond your intended stay in Europe. It should also have been issued within the last ten years and/have sufficient blank pages for entry and exit stamps. If you are a national of India, Pakistan, or Bangladesh, you must obtain a Schengen visa before travelling. This visa allows entry into any of the 27 Schengen countries for short stays (up to 90 days within 180 days). Ensure you apply for your Schengen visa well in advance, as processing times may vary. Nationals of British, American, Australian, Canadian, and other visa-exempt countries currently do not require a Schengen visa for short stays (up to 90 days within 180 days). However, starting in 2025, all visa-exempt travellers (including British and American citizens) must apply for ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) before entering the Schengen Area. The ETIAS application is a simple online process that requires travellers to provide personal information and pay a small fee (€7). Once approved, the authorisation will be valid for three years or until your passport expires. From Early 2025, the EES will be introduced across Schengen countries. This system will electronically record the entry and exit of all non-EU travellers, replacing manual passport stamping. Travelers' biometric data (fingerprints and facial images) will be recorded during their first entry into the Schengen Area.
  • Weather: The weather across much of Western and Central Europe, including France, Germany, Belgium and Italy, can be variable and unpredictable, like in/England. Regardless of the time of year, carrying an umbrella and preparing for sudden weather changes is always advisable. France, Belgium and Germany: In these countries, the weather can fluctuate widely depending on the season. Summers can bring temperatures around 25-30°C, while winters are much colder, often dropping below 5°C. Italy: Southern European countries, particularly Italy, tend to have warmer temperatures, especially in summer, when temperatures can reach 30-40°C. Coastal areas tend to be more temperate.  Switzerland: Temperatures can vary dramatically in alpine regions, particularly in Switzerland. During high-altitude excursions, temperatures can range between 0°C and 2°C on mountaintops, even in summer, while lowland areas could simultaneously experience temperatures exceeding 30°C. It's a good idea to check the specific forecast for each destination before your trip, especially on a multi-destination tour, as you may encounter different weather conditions in each country. Layered Clothing: Bring a variety of clothing layers to adjust to changing temperatures throughout the day. Winter Months: If travelling in winter, be aware that daylight hours are short, and sightseeing often happens in the dark. It gets dark in Northern Europe and the Alps, sometimes as early as 16:00 hrs. Footwear & Accessories: Comfortable shoes, waterproof jackets, and cold-weather gear (for alpine regions) are highly recommended. By preparing for various conditions, travellers can comfortably enjoy their time across these beautiful European destinations, regardless of season. 
  • Wheelchair Accessibility: We welcome passengers using lightweight manual wheelchairs on our tours, provided the wheelchair can be stowed in the coach's luggage hold. Passengers are encouraged to contact us in advance to ensure we can meet their specific mobility needs. Our staff will try to assist passengers with reduced mobility in compliance with the Regulations. Please note, however, that a family member or companion will need to be present to assist with pushing the wheelchair throughout the tour. We will request accessible hotel rooms for wheelchair users wherever possible, but this depends on availability and cannot be guaranteed. We advise passengers to inform us of their requirements in advance so we can make the necessary requests. Please be aware that specific areas or parts of destinations, such as Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, Burnatty Castle and Cliffs of Moher, are inaccessible to wheelchair users. Additionally, locations like Dublin, Belfast and Ring of Kerry have cobbled streets or rugged terrain, which may make it difficult for wheelchairs to navigate. Passengers should take these factors into account when planning their trip.
  • Child Seat Requirement: In most European countries, it is mandatory for children under the age of 12 years or shorter than 150 cm to use appropriate child restraints while travelling in a coach. Children under seven years old or under 125 cm tall must use a child seat with a harness or/appropriate restraint system. Children aged 7 to 12 years or between 125 cm and 150 cm tall must use a booster seat or a seat cushion. The parent or guardian is responsible for providing a suitable child seat for their child. Passengers should ensure they bring the appropriate child restraint system that complies with local laws in the visited countries, as there may be minor variations in regulations across European nations.
  • Baggage and Packing: Due to limited storage space on coaches, checking the baggage allowance for your tour before departure is essential. Ensure your luggage meets the size and weight requirements in your tour documents. Excess baggage may not be permitted. Pack a small day bag for personal items, medications, snacks, and travel documents to keep with you during the journey, as accessing the main luggage may not be possible until designated stops.
  • Punctuality: Respect timings during stops; there will be scheduled comfort breaks and sightseeing stops throughout the tour. Be sure to return to the coach on time after each stop to avoid delays and respect the entire group's schedule. Coaches operate on a strict timetable to ensure that all scheduled visits and activities are completed on time. Passengers who arrive late at any point may risk missing the coach, as drivers cannot wait beyond the allocated time for each stop. The tour may sometimes involve changes in coaches or representatives, particularly when merging with other groups. Please adhere to the instructed times for these transitions to ensure smooth coordination.
  • Coach Facilities: While most coaches are equipped with WC facilities, they may be limited in availability. Using restroom facilities during scheduled breaks at rest stops is recommended to avoid discomfort.
  • Seating and Safety: By law, passengers must wear seat belts where fitted. Seats are pre-assigned and given to you on the departure date. Seat requests are not taken under any circumstance.
  • Personal Health and Medication: Bring any necessary medications with you in your day bag. If you are prone to motion sickness, carry appropriate remedies or medications to ensure a comfortable journey. If your tour includes high-altitude destinations, ensure you are medically fit to travel at such heights. Those with heart or lung conditions should consult a doctor beforehand. Pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and warm clothing, as temperatures can vary significantly at high altitudes.
  • Cultural and Local Etiquette: Be mindful of the local customs and etiquette, especially when visiting religious or historical sites. Dress modestly where required, and be respectful of local customs and traditions.
  • Electronics and Connectivity: Some coaches are equipped with USB charging ports, but this is not guaranteed. Ensure your devices are charged beforehand, and consider bringing a portable charger/power bank. WiFi is unavailable on the coach, so bring along books, headphones, or downloaded movies and music to enjoy during long journey stretches.
  • Environmental Awareness: Be conscious of the environment during your tour. Carry a reusable water bottle to reduce plastic waste, fill up at restaurants and hotels, and dispose of trash properly at rest stops.
  • Minors cannot travel on their own. All bookings must have a legal guardian or adult over the age of 18, unless where dictated by law. Where a child is travelling without a parent and with a legal guardian or another family member, a child travel consent letter must be provided and carried with you on tour.
  • The maximum baggage weight allowed on our Tours is not to exceed 20 Kg and not exceeding dimensions of 90 x 75 x 43 cm / 35.5 x 29.5 x 16 ins. Only one bag is allowed per passenger; any subsequent bags will be subject to space on the mode of transport along with excess baggage charges.
  • All our tours operate with pre-allocated seating; we reserve the right to assign or reassign seats at any time, even after boarding the mode of transportation. Any indication of your seating is for reference only and is subject to change at any time. No seating requests under any circumstances are taken by the local operator or its carriers.
  • We may operate multiple coaches for our tours; your booking should be under one booking and with the same pickup should you wish to travel with any particulars for any given tour.
  • Coach, accommodation and service facilities may be different for each individual even if travelling on the same tour, vehicle or hotel.
  • Early Bird Offer is not applicable for infants aged 0-23 months for any holidays mentioned on our website or brochure. Infant prices for coach holidays are for a seat only.
  • An important point to note whilst on a touring holiday is that some long journeys are unavoidable especially when travelling from city to city.
  • It is advisable passengers carry necessities that they may need for the day such as water, dry snacks, cameras etc. with them in their hand luggage.
  • Lunches are not provided on this tour, where there is a possibility of stopping at a service station the choice for vegetarians may be limited. We highly recommend if you have specific dietary requirements then you should make arrangements to carry your own food for lunch.
  • Some hotels in Europe, especially France will provide two single beds put together as a Double occupancy room, as this sort of configuration allows the hotel to use a room for multi-use, we do contract with such hotels, and you should be prepared for such eventualities.
  • Passengers can be well prepared by ensuring they are carrying appropriate clothing, footwear and accessories. Passengers should also be aware that during the winter months most of the sightseeing will be in the dark as, in Europe, the day becomes dark very early during winter. Passengers should consult with us at the time of booking if they are unsure.
  • On occasions, due to large events, traffic, logistics and availability of reservations, it may be necessary to change the above itinerary. However, all aspects of the itinerary will be covered. In the event of the Eiffel Tower restricting access the price difference for the restricted floor will be reimbursed. Eiffel Tower when closed during national holidays or events may be substituted by Montparnasse tower or will be refunded.
  • As coaches are prohibited in certain parts of Pisa, Rome, Florence and Venice majority of the tour will be conducted by walking. Please note on occasions during peak season maximum occupancy per room will be 2 persons, in which case an alternative room configuration will be provided.
  • Due to the Vatican's Holy Year celebrations in 2025, including the rare occurrence of the opening of the Holy Doors, which only happens once every 25 years, there may be changes to the Rome portion of your itinerary. Access to areas like St. Peter's Basilica may be restricted, especially during key events. We will do our best to provide alternative visits to other monuments if required. While we aim to keep you informed, some changes may be confirmed closer to your tour date or whilst on tour.

The time we mentioned in the itinerary is for reference only. Please refer to your guide on tour for the actual arrangement. The visiting order and duration might be changed according to actual and practical situation for better service.
This tour/activity is overseen by a select local operator in the region. Upon booking your tour or activity and after receiving confirmation, you will be issued an e-ticket detailing the local operator's name and contact information. If you require assistance finding a specific tour, please contact us for more information.
