Would anyone be interested in joining me on an 8 day tour to the Swiss Alps in July next year?

Itinerary:

5th July - Dover - Calais - Troyes (approx. 250m + travel to Dover)
6th July - Troyes to Grindelwald (aprox. 300m)
7th July - Grindlewald to Klosters (approx. 190m)
8th July - Klosters to Brissago (approx. 115 or 160 depending on route)
9th July - Brissago (2 x nights here - Sat & Sun) (Sunday drive or rest as preferred)
10th July - Brissago to Grindelwald (approx 150m)
11th July - Grindelwald to Troyes (approx. 300m)
12th July - Troyes to Calais (approx. 250m + travel to Dover)

Ideally I'm looking for about 10 cars which should equate to 10 rooms and possibly get us a group discount at the Swiss hotels. Currently there is good availability at the hotels and a good choice on standard of rooms. Some have single rooms. The Swiss hotels are all part of the Sunstar group. Click HERE to see what the standard is.

The tour is not restricted to MGs so if you have a 1950s or 1960s car then here's your chance to get some miles on it next summer and enjoy some of the greatest roads in the Alps.



If you think the outbound and return days are likely to be too long behind the wheel then just add a day on to the trip at either end, arrange the appropriate accommodation and join the main group at Grindelwald.

If you're interested please post here and if there is sufficient interest I'll send a detailed itinerary to those who want to make the trip.

NB. This is a private tour and as such we will be travelling as individuals who just happen to be on the same trip. All booking and payments will be made by participants direct with the hotels so if you can book any standard of room you prefer.

Indicative cost based on current exchange rate is £1200 per person based on double rooms plus tolls, plus petrol, plus 2 evening meals in Brissago plus channel crossing. Add about £400 for a single traveller. As usual we single travellers get screwed.

I will not be handling any money !!!
