Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between an excursion and a day trip?
Nothing strict — we call shorter or themed programmes 'excursions' and longer point-to-point drives 'day trips'. Both are private and chauffeur-driven.
Can excursions start from my hotel?
Yes, we pick up from any hotel or address in Switzerland.
Do you offer combined excursions and airport transfers?
Yes — see /transfer-and-tour-packages for 3-in-1 packages that combine ZRH transfer, sightseeing and hotel drop-off.
Are guides included?
Your chauffeur acts as a friendly local host. For accredited historian-guides at museums or castles, we arrange them at cost.
How far in advance should I book?
For high season (June–September, Christmas, February) at least 2 weeks. For quieter periods, 48 hours is fine.
