Chillon Castle is not offered as an optional experience at Montreux. Would we be able to go on our own while we're there?

You'll only have approximately 25 minutes in Montreux. That's not enough time to visit Chillon Castle independently, since the castle is about 3 km (roughly a 40-minute walk or a short bus/taxi ride) from Montreux station. The schedule is very tight, and the group will be boarding the Golden Pass train with assigned seats, so you wouldn't be able to break away for a side trip at that point. If visiting Chillon Castle is important to you, the best option would be to plan it outside of the guided schedule, which is by extending your trip after the tour ends. That way, you'll have the flexibility to explore the castle at your own pace without worrying about missing the train connection.

I would like to know if this trip includes first class seats. If not, how do I get them.

The itinerary primarily uses standard class train seats throughout the journey. Regrettably, upgrading to first class is not available on this tour package.

I want a fully guiddd tour with minimal walking visiting Zurich interlarken Lucerne zermatt

This is a fully guided tour. The activity level is Balanced, which includes a cumulative 1–3 miles (1.6–4.8 km) of walking per day. Some areas may feature uneven terrain such as cobblestones, hills, and stairs, as well as 1–3 hours of cumulative standing time. Guests should be able to get on and off the coach without assistance. The terrain involves medium walking distances with a mix of flat and uneven surfaces. The itinerary includes a combination of relaxed starts and some evening activities.

Does Tour Radar also provide car service between the airport and hotel on arrival and the same in departure?

Arrival transfers from Zurich Airport (ZRH) will not be provided by Trafalgar due to Hyatt Place Zurich Airport The Circle and Hyatt Regency Zurich Airport The Circle being within a short walking distance from the airport and directly connected via an indoor tunnel. For departure, guests can choose to take the complimentary coach transfer operated by Trafalgar or a train ticket from Lucerne to Zurich Airport (ZRH) on the last day of the tour only.

When will we receive more details on the trip? Can you provide us more information on signing up for optional excursions?

Your travel documents will be delivered electronically in PDF format 21 days prior to departure. Optional experiences/excursions will be introduced by your Travel Director during the tour. They'll provide full details, including availability, pricing, and how to sign up.

Is the Bernina Pass Discovery experience an additional train trip or is it taken instead of the scenic train journey via Chur?

Upon review, the scenic train journey via Chur is part of the trip and the Bernina Pass Discovery is an optional experience that cost CHF98.00.

Where is the meeting point at the airport?

Meeting point details are provided in the travel documents and additional details will be emailed by the Travel Director.

Looking for a group tour with the Matterhorn included.

We made an effort to find an alternative tour that includes a visit to the Matterhorn, but, regrettably, we were unable to locate one. However, we want to inform you that this tour offers an opportunity to view the Matterhorn through the Klein Matterhorn Excursion for CHF141.00 per person, along with the chance to enjoy the included highlights of the 'Stay With Stories'.

My wife uses walking stick to walk. She can walk without sticks under a quarter of a mile but at a slow pace. Is the Switzerland tour too difficult for her?

The activity level for this trip is balanced, with cumulative daily standing 1-3 hours, and daily walking up to 1-3 miles per day. Terrains involve flat and uneven surfaces like cobblestones, hills, and stairs. Guests should be able to get on and off the coach without assistance.

Everything was very good except for the train hopping. That was absolutely awful. Who thought that was okay should not be working for any travel group. Three different trains in between two stops is just wrong. And there was nothing in the trip description about that. If there was I never would have booked the tour. And because the description was not there I will never travel with Trafalgar again because I will always wonder what was left out just to make the sale.Show more

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It is encouraging to read that, aside from this particular aspect, you found the overall experience very good. We are, however, genuinely sorry to read how strongly the train arrangements affected your enjoyment and confidence in Trafalgar. We understand your frustration at having to change trains three times between two stops, particularly if this was not something you expected from the trip description. We appreciate that the level of effort and inconvenience involved would have been disappointing and that, had you been aware of these arrangements when booking, you may have made a different decision. We are also sorry to read that this experience has left you questioning whether other important details may not have been clearly communicated. Transparency is important to us, and your feedback regarding the itinerary description will be shared with the relevant team for careful consideration. We regret that this experience has affected your trust in Trafalgar and hope that your feedback will help us improve the clarity of our tour information for future travellers.

This was an excellent tour. The tour director, Michael Thomas, was superb. However, my overall experience of this tour is clouded by the inept and irresponsible replies that I had from Trafalgar staff prior to the tour, which forced me to miss the welcome dinner which was included in the tour price. I have tried to get reimbursed for the cost of the dinner that I paid, but Trafalgar is not responding. So it is difficult for me to give an objective assesment of the tour.Show more

Craig was a fantastic tour guide and the saving grace of the trip. There were just too many people to make any kind of connection with most. There were just oo many stops on such a short tour. Saint Moritz and Geneva could've been drive by's perhaps, but there was no time to really see much of either place. Also, some of the participants were not physically up to the task. Two people were in walkers as an example,, but others also struggled with the physical demands, though those demands were not great. As a side comment, this tour had a lot of busing and train riding and we would've preferred to have more walking.Show more

  Traveler•Written March 2026
  I think the itinerary says that the train ride is an optional excursion, so would it be an option to skip the train ride and go to Chillon Castle instead or possibly go to Chillon Castle on Day 5 when we have the afternoon free at Lake Geneva?
- TrafalgarOperator•Written March 2026
  The train ride is part of the official itinerary and not considered an optional experience. That said, during your free time in Geneva (Day 5), you are welcome to make your own arrangements if you'd like to visit Chillon Castle, provided the schedule allows.
  
  We recommend coordinating directly with your Travel Director while on tour, as they can provide guidance on timing, logistics, and ensure that any personal plans fit smoothly with the group schedule.
