  Asked on August 26th, 2026

  I want to visit Keukenhof Garden and Brussels Belgium, and I would like to know if you have options for these pre tour extras?

  Tour Details

    CostsaverOperator•Written August 2026

    Unfortunately, Costsaver does not offer pre-tour extensions or optional extras to Keukenhof Gardens or Brussels, Belgium as part of this itinerary. If you would like to visit these destinations, we would recommend arriving in Europe a few days before your tour begins and arranging independent travel to Amsterdam and Brussels.
    
    Keukenhof Gardens is typically open during the spring season and April is one of the best times to visit. Brussels can also be easily reached by train from Amsterdam, allowing you to explore both destinations prior to joining your tour.
    
    Should you require pre-night accommodation at the tour's starting hotel, we would be happy to assist, subject to availability.

    I’m also concerned that all the hotel on this tour is very far from the city proper. If we are given free time to explore those areas, we still need to travel quite a time to reach those. On what particular day, are we given free time on tour on our own.

    Do you happen to offer Eurostar high-speed train from Paris to London for any tour variation?
  • 

    CostsaverOperator•Written September 2026

    Hotels used are selected based on itinerary logistics and may not always be located in the city center. In many cases, accommodations are situated in the surrounding area to facilitate the overall touring schedule. 
    
    While there are opportunities for free time throughout the tour, the exact amount of independent time can vary by departure and daily schedule. Generally, guests may enjoy free time during sightseeing stops, meal breaks, and some evenings after the day's included activities have concluded. Your Travel Director will also be able to provide recommendations and advise on transportation options should you wish to visit the city center during these periods.
    
    The most notable opportunities for independent exploration are typically in Lucerne and Paris, particularly on Days 4 and 6, where dedicated free time is generally included within the itinerary to allow guests to discover these destinations at their own pace.

    Regrettably, this tour itinerary does not offer a tour variation that includes the Eurostar high-speed train between Paris and London. The tour concludes in Paris and does not continue on to London as part of the itinerary.

  I like this tour, but before offering it, I need clarification on how many breakfasts and dinners are included. Also, I understand the price is based on a shared room with other travelers. Is it possible to request a private room, even if it comes at an additional cost?

    CostsaverOperator•Written February 2026

    Yes, this tour does offer private room options. When booking, you can request a double room. This is the standard arrangement for couples traveling together, and hotels used on the itinerary generally provide rooms that can accommodate this request.
    
    However, availability depends on the specific hotel allocations for each departure date. Costsaver notes that while single rooms and twin rooms are common, double rooms for couples are available upon request and subject to confirmation at the time of booking

    How likely is that this trip will not be cancelled. I am hearing from other operators that if you do not have enough confirmed travelers, there is a chance of cancelling the tour.

    CostsaverOperator•Written January 2026

    Regrettably, this tour does not include a visit to the Tulip Gardens (Keukenhof) in its standard itinerary. The tour begins in Amsterdam and highlights the city with optional experiences like a canal cruise, but the famous tulip gardens are not part of the scheduled inclusions.
