​BOOKING & PAYMENT

         
 How to book
The first step in booking any trip  is to contact me   and find out if I am available for the dates you would like to travel.  If you are looking for a short trip, this may be easier for me to accommodate, but if you would like 3 or more days, contact me early.  The rate at which it books up varies from year to year. But almost every year, I am very much booked by the start of the season. 

• Decide what interests you most by browsing this website. FAQ  page answers many common questions.
• Send  an email (or FB   message) outlining :  your plans ,  dates of visit,  how many people will participate and  your recent relevant  experience and current fitness         
• SvanAlp will provide a quote (price) for the trip and  information regarding equipment, transport and logistics.

       
​       After reservation is confirmed you will get an agreement with complete details of the trip
         

​Payment
The prices quoted are for payment by cash. 
​Payment is accepted either in euro, US dollars or British pounds. No advance payment (deposit) is necessary*
Make sure you have payment BEFORE  our trip starts (you will save by bringing cash instead of ATM withdrawal and this is more reliable).
*In case of any change in your travel plans inform as soon as possible.
