TRAVEL TIPS WHEN TO GO

CURRENCY

Central Europe has a temperate climate with four distinct seasons.

Summer (June to August) brings long, warm days with noticeably short nights. Summer is the best time to be outside hiking, cycling and exploring cities.

Autumn (September to November) delivers crisp days with dazzling colours. It is not unusual to start seeing frost.

Winter (December to February) experiences shorter days with very cold conditions and a chance of snowfall. Christmas markets are in abundance, visit for the mulled wine, twinkling lights and carols.

INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT REGIONAL AIRPORT

Lithuania

Spring (March to May) means the days are getting longer and the temperature is warmer. The spring flowers start to bloom and the snow melts away creating flowing waterfalls and lush green meadows.

A valid passport is required with at least six months validity beyond the intended stay. A visa is not required for holiday travel less than 90 days for Australian passport holders to Europe. Travel advice is available from the Australian Government at smartraveller.gov.au.

BERLIN WALL

BRANDENBURG GATE

A visit to Berlin must include seeing the wall which once divided the city. Pulled down in 1989, there are a few sites where you can still view the Wall. Visit the longest surviving section, the East Side Gallery, which features famous murals and paintings. For a moving insight into Berlin’s division check out The Berlin Wall Memorial. See the last original segments of the Wall at Potsdamer Platz and stop at Checkpoint Charlie, the most well-known border crossing.

Be sure to visit the iconic Brandenburg Gate when in Berlin. It is a symbol of both Germany’s division and reunification. The Gate displays one of the earliest examples of a neo-classical building in Germany. See the iconic Quadriga statue atop the Gate and enjoy a leisurely stroll around the Gate and through the facing Pariser Platz square. If you’re in Berlin for New Year’s Eve, be sure to watch the fireworks over the Brandenburg Gate.

BEER GARDENS & BEER HALLS

THE ROMANTIC ROAD

Germany is synonymous with beer and the best way to enjoy a stein is at one of the many beer halls or gardens throughout the country. Well known for its beer festival, Oktoberfest, Munich is also home to a high density of beer gardens. Stop in at Löwenbräukeller to hear Bavarian music, savour a freshly tapped brew at Augustiner-Keller and mingle with the locals at Hirschgarten, it is one of the largest beer gardens in the world.

The route from the River Main to the Alps is considered one of the most picturesque drives in Germany. Begin in the pretty town of Würzburg, in the heart of the wine growing region. Stroll through the charming streets of the medieval walled town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Admire the historical centre of Augsburg and dine in old vaulted rooms under medieval candlelight.

Be awed by the fairytale castle of Neuschwanstein before ending in the pastel coloured town of Füssen.

AIRFARES

Late Booking Fees

Airfares are not included unless otherwise specified. A number of airfares can be used in conjunction with your holiday package. All airfares are subject to availability and have special conditions. In most instances airfares must be paid in full at the time of booking and some may be non-refundable.

If you wish to change your flight booking after the ticket has been issued, a reissue fee of $22 per ticket will be charged, in addition to any fees imposed by the Airline.

A fee of $30 will be charged for all bookings made less than 7 days prior to travel.

All fees can be varied without notice.

CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS Prior to Final Payment Your deposit is forfeited.

After Final Payment

There will be no refund of your deposit, in addition to any fees imposed by the Supplier, which may be up to 100% of monies paid.

After Travel

There will be no refund for cancellation once travel has commenced. There will be no refund for unused services, except for OPEN DATED services where the service was not booked with the Supplier. Requests for refunds received more than 6 months after departure date will not be accepted.

TRANSFERS & TOURS Some Accommodation Suppliers provide courtesy transfers to/from the airport. It is essential that these transfers are pre-booked. Some Tour Suppliers provide complimentary pick up and return to your holiday accommodation and require a minimum number of passengers to operate. If minimum numbers are not achieved tours may be cancelled at short notice. Additionally, some Suppliers reserve the right to cancel departures for other reasons, including bad weather. Some tours and itineraries may also vary and attractions may be substituted due to seasonal conditions. Viva Holidays will not be held liable for a service variation, cancellation, delay or withdrawal, or a Supplier’s failure to notify you. A full refund applies for the cancelled tour.

TRAVEL INSURANCE We strongly recommend you take out appropriate travel insurance to cover your travel arrangements.

If we must change any part of your booking for reasons beyond our control, for example, an Accommodation Supplier overbooks accommodation, or if there is an increase in taxes or Supplier charges, we will notify you. If any such changes result in your holiday costing more or otherwise being materially different from that originally booked, you may cancel the booking and we will refund any monies already paid less any charges levied

by Suppliers.
