OPTIONAL SIGHTSEEING & EXCURSIONS
With Insight, you will enjoy many of Europe’s famous highlights as included features of your tour - at no extra cost. However, there is an exciting array of additional excursions which are made available to help turn an already outstanding experience into the trip of a lifetime. These are entirely optional and are offered to you at competitive prices. They are all bookable through your Tour Director at the commencement of your tour as many of them are planned to coincide with the best highlights available at the time of your visit.
The following list is general as it would be impossible to operate all excursions on any one tour. The actual tours to be offered will be advised to you by your Tour Director. All prices are quoted in Swiss Francs (SF) and Euros, where appropriate, which have been rounded for convenience. Payment can be made in cash or by the following credit cards: Visa, Mastercard or American Express. All credit card transactions will be charged in Euros. For payments in other currencies your Tour Director will advise the relevant exchange rates at the commencement of your tour.

your Tour Director.To allow you to participate in a selection of
these additional evenings of dinner/entertainment and special
interest sightseeing excursions, please budget for an approximate
cost of €30-40 per person per day.
