Your health, well-being, and peace of mind are paramount to us. 

 

Although the world's circumstances have fortunately changed, protection and prevention are still top priorities today as the travel industry, including The Zurich Insider™️, continues to adapt to the latest Swiss and international guidelines. 

​​

Before You Travel 

 

Travel protocols vary from country to country and are subject to change as new information becomes available (even at the last minute). Therefore, please always check them shortly before your departure. ​

 

Traveling to Switzerland 

 

✈️ For Switzerland's entry & stay regulations and restrictions, the Swiss State Secretariat for Migration SEM and its visa provisions list can provide more information.

​

​⚠️ NEW FROM MID-2025 - ETIAS

​ETIAS is a new European travel authorization system similar to the USA Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). Visa-exempt third-country nationals who wish to enter the Schengen area must apply online for an ETIAS travel authorization, which costs 7 euros and is generally valid for 3 years.​

 

​

Health, Travel & Cancellations

 

Before traveling, we strongly recommend reviewing your insurance to ensure you have appropriate coverage to meet your and your travel companions' needs in case of loss of property, illness, injury, or death.

​

We strongly recommend that You obtain travel and cancellation insurance for the entire duration of your trip. This will provide further protection from unexpected circumstances that might force You to cancel your trip. 

 

Although our General Terms & Conditions and Cancellation Policy are more flexible than ever, we can not predict all eventualities or cover a short-notice cancellation. The Zurich Insider™️ does NOT offer health, travel, or trip cancellation insurance.

 

However, we offer a "No-question-asked" tour cancellation assurance for an additional fee. Please consult our Cancellation Policy for more information.

Transportation

Should you have booked an Experience where private transportation is included, we ensure that enhanced sanitation measures are in place:

Leaving Switzerland 

​

Check with your home country's policies on testing, post-trip self-isolation, and the latest travel advisories.
