Asked on October 31st, 2022If i am traveling alone can i have a single room or will i have to share with someone else
- TrafalgarOperator•Written November 2022
When you travel solo, for this specific trip you would have your choice at the time of booking to have either room type: Single Supplement (solo occupancy) room type where you have the entire room to yourself, or Twin Share (double occupancy) room type where you are sharing the room with another fellow traveler of exact same gender.

Luis
Asked on October 16th, 2022can i book hotels with you prior to the tour and at the end of the tour. I might arrive in Munich a day or two early and want a hotel -- hopefully the same or nearby hotel to the start of the tour. Same thing at the end of the tour in Zurich -- we might want to stay a couple of extra days before the flight back to Canada.
- TrafalgarOperator•Written October 2022
We certainly offer additional nights at the same hotel but cannot guarantee that they will be available to you when you are interested in traveling. They may need to be booked independently if our contracted space is already sold out.
