Why you're safe with the holiday experts

DERTOUR is part of the DERTOUR GmbH group of Frankfurt - one of the world's leading tour operators . We also hold our own ATOL and are members of ABTA.

We've been creating perfect tailor-made holidays to the heart of Europe for 50 years. A lot has changed in that time, but one thing that has always remained the same is our total focus on serving you in the very best way that we can. This includes ensuring your satisfaction and security. It's why DERTOUR is fully licenced with our own ATOL and is also adheres to all the rules and principles of ABTA.

ATOL is a financial protection scheme for holidaymakers travelling on an air inclusive holiday, which is managed by the Civil Aviation Authority. This protects you from losing your money or from being stranded overseas in the very unlikely event that DERTOUR should go out of business. Our Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL) number is ATOL 1839.

When you buy an ATOL protected air inclusive holiday* from us, you will receive a confirmation invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our ATOL.

* The air inclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected providing either the person who pays for the booking is present in the UK when the booking is made or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk

ABTA was created in 1950 by 22 leading travel companies. It now represents over 5,000 travel agencies and more than 900 tour operators, right across the British Isles. ABTA helps to maintain the highest standards of trading practice for the travel industry and its customers. The ABTA logo is a sign that you can expect choice, value and high levels of service from DERTOUR.

DERTOUR is also fully committed to always try to provide an alternative holiday or route in times of disruption that is out of our control, such as in the event of volcanic ash, disruption to air travel due to heavy snowfall or an airline strike grounding aircraft.

Geneva is a beautiful, cosmopolitan city in the French speaking part of Switzerland, framed by the Alps and situated at Europe's largest lake, the Lake Geneva. The city is not only the world capital of watch-making, but also a city of wonderful lakeside parks, world-class cultural events and exhibitions as well as gastronomic delights.

Geneva is home to more than 200 international organisations and is widely recognised as the City of Peace and used for major national negotiations. As an open-minded city Geneva soon makes its guests feel at home.

City Centre

Extending from the banking district to Eaux Vives, the parallel streets of 'Rue du Rhone'and 'Rue du Marche' make up Geneva's most famous shopping district. Designer retail stores and world famous watchmakers line the streets.

Rue du Mont Blanc

Although not as fashionable as the City Centre, there is an equally large selection of clothing and jewellery on display along Rue du Mont Blanc and its surrounding streets. This is the best area to pick up typical Swiss souvenirs.

The Old Town

If you're looking for art or antiques, the Old Town is the place for you. The 'Grand Rue' is the primary shopping street but don't be afraid to discover the Old Town's many winding alleys as well.

Brasserie Lipp

Modelled after a Parisian brasserie, this Geneva hotspot is the consummate French bistro serving up all things French from pot-au-feu to charcuterie.

Edelweiss

This popular restaurant is housed in a Swiss chalet and features live traditional Swiss music and yodeling every night. Menu highlights include the famous Cheese fondue.

The Lake

Stroll the promenades around the lake and soak up the atmosphere and relax in one of the lakeside parks or cafés. For a unique perspective of the city, take a one or two hour boat cruise around the lake.

The Old Town

Stroll along the cobblestone streets and visit some of the beautiful antique boutiques located throughout the Old Town. Head to the Art and History Museum or the Maison Tavel, Geneva's oldest house, and go and see Saint Peter's Cathedral.

The United Nations Building and Red Cross Museum

Take a tour of the European Headquarters of the United Nations followed by a visit to the Red Cross Museum across the street.
