Alpine Walking Vacation Package: Seven Nights
Seven nights of valley walking with a guide and a group of six or more. In July and August it runs; at the ends of the season it needs the numbers and sometimes does not get them.
| The moment | What is certain then | What can still change | What it costs you if it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| At enquiry | The date, the minimum of six, and which weeks historically fill | Whether six arrive | Nothing |
| At deposit | Your place, your room, and a decision date | Whether it runs, and the grade of walking you have chosen, which can still be moved | Nothing to the operator |
| At the operator's decision date | Forty five days out, declared either way | Nothing after | A full refund on a shortfall, and nothing for an early airfare |
| After confirmation | The valley, the hotels, the day by day route with real ascent figures rather than adjectives | The route, which the guide changes for weather and does most weeks | The operator's schedule |
The one thing to be honest with yourself about
The daily ascent figures in your document are real numbers, not encouragement. A trip graded moderate here is genuinely moderate, and choosing a grade above your walking is the most common way this week goes wrong.

Certainty: Minimum usually met. The flight is quoted beside this figure and never folded inside it, because on a conditional departure an early ticket is the one thing a shortfall does not return. What the figure contains.
