Would you be able to provide me names of the hotels or similar that this tour uses for each destination on the tour where we stay overnight? So I can look at them as a reference.(For Hungary, Switzerland and Vienna) I have had some bad experiences with other touring companies with 4 star hotels that were not clean.

Does the touring company provide airport pick up and drop off to and from the hotel? Is it included in the price?

We really liked the hotels throughout the trip they were cute, comfortable, and in great locations for exploring the cities. We wanted twin beds and while it wasn’t initially set up at a couple of hotels, the team responded very quickly once we mentioned it. They immediately contacted the hotels and arranged the twin bedding requests wherever possible, and most of them were sorted out during the trip. We really appreciated how promptly they handled it and how they kept checking in with us on chat throughout the journey to make sure everything was going smoothly.Show more

  What is the aprox price for a solo traveller for this tour? For May 2028 ( including a private room) . I understand this is only approximate.
- Wanderful Holidays LLCOperator•Written May 2026
  I'd be very happy to share some examples of the hotels we have used for past travellers on this tour
  • Budapest – Nemzeti Hotel Budapest or similar
  • Vienna – Zeitgeist Vienna Hauptbahnhof or similar
  • Salzburg – Hotel Mercure Salzburg City or similar
  • Zurich – Placid Hotel Design & Lifestyle Zurich or similar
  These are all well-rated accommodations that our guests have generally been very happy with in terms of cleanliness, comfort, and location.
- Wanderful Holidays LLCOperator•Written May 2026
  Yes, airport transfers are included within the tour price, including arrival and departure transfers. The offer also includes the intercity train journeys between destinations, so most of the transportation throughout the tour is already arranged for you.
