All questions
  • C

    Carla

    Asked on November 24th, 2024

    Is the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam part of the tour?

    Tour Details
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      A visit to the Van Gogh Museum is not part of our Tour Itinerary. Additionally, since the tour starts in Amsterdam but is packed with activities on the first day, a visit to the museum (even if arranged by the customers themselves) will be impossible, so we recommend that for customers who wish to arrange this experience on their own, they would need to schedule it before the starts.

  • G

    Grace

    Asked on July 20th, 2024

    How often does this trip occur? I am only seeing an October date and looking for a trip next spring or summer.

    Tour Details
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten July 2024

      Rail Tours currently have fewer departures. If more passengers show interest and seats sell out, our team may add more schedules in the future.

  • C

    Cathy

    Asked on May 2nd, 2024

    Do you know the dates for 2025 as yet?

    Tour Details
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten May 2024

      The 2025 Dates for our Amsterdam to Budapest Rail Tour is not yet confirmed and our team is still working on finalizing the details. We can only advise you to keep an eye out for the next 2-3 months, as the Tour Dates will be posted in the website immediately, once the dates are confirmed.

    Evelyn

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    Are international flights included in the tour price?

    Flights / Transfers
    Price / Availability
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      Whilst internal flights are covered for certain itineraries, you will have to make your way to the meeting point for the start of your tour. When booking flights be mindful of departure times and possible delays.
      Tip: We suggest that you start comparing prices the moment your deposit is paid to avoid costly flights.

    Lorraine

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    Are young children allowed?

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      We have a set minimum age of 10 for our tours, but we're happy to consider younger children on a case-by-case basis. Just let us know your request, and we'll do our best to accommodate it. Expat Explore reserves the right to accept or decline the request at our discretion. We want to ensure everyone has a great time exploring with us!

    Emma

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    Can you cater for my dietary requirements?

    Meals
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      We make every effort to include local cuisine on our tours to ensure an authentic experience for you. You'll receive an email before the tour begins, where we'll ask for your dietary preferences. We always have a vegetarian option, and we'll work hard to accommodate any other dietary needs or preferences you may have.

    Courtney

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    Do I need to exchange cash before I leave?

    Payments
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      Contactless payment is widely accepted across Europe – it’s best to bring a payment card with no overseas withdrawal fees.
      * Keep in mind that certain optionals are payable in cash to your tour leader whilst on tour. We suggest that you talk to your Tour Leader about when & where to draw cash to pay for the optional excursions.

    Christina

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    If I wish to stay longer in the start or end destination, will Expat Explore assist with pre/post-tour accommodation?

    Accommodation
    Travel Support
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      While Expat Explore cannot assist with booking pre or post-tour accommodation, we recommend Booking.com for affordable accommodation options prior to and after the tour. If hotel information is available, we can provide you with the details in advance so that you can book accommodation at or nearby the start hotel. Please request this by sending a message through on the conversation page.

    Tanya

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    Can Expat Explore issue me with a visa?

    Visa
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      While Expat Explore endeavours to stay current on all major entry requirements, we are not a registered visa agent. We are, however, able to make things a little easier by providing you with the required supporting documents for a visa application once your tour is paid in full. It is a requirement of the embassies that tours are paid for in full before visa support documentation is requested and applications are made. When you have made the final payment for your booking, simply reach out to our Customer Support Team to request your visa support documents and confirm which embassy you will be applying to.

    Trevor

    Asked on March 18th, 2024

    How much spending money do I need for my holiday?

    Other
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      This is up to you and will vary depending on how much you wish to spend on snacks, drinks, souvenirs etc. We do not include entrance fees to attractions and museums. We do, however, provide you with free time to see everything you want, and our tour leaders will have all the information on pricing and locations so you can manage your own budget. Please refer to your tour-specific pre-departure information and optional excursions guide for further details.
