Booking, Payment Terms, Insurance and Travel Logistics

We set clear booking steps and payment deadlines so families know what to expect. Our standard timing usually requires a deposit at booking, full balance several weeks before arrival, and medical forms before check-in. For a step‑by‑step look at the registration sequence you can review our registration process.

Payment terms and methods

We accept the common methods used by Swiss camps. Bank transfer (SEPA/IBAN) is our preferred method and most operators prefer CHF; some accept EUR at conversion. Credit card (Visa/Mastercard) is usually accepted but can carry a surcharge. Occasionally PayPal is offered for convenience. Our typical timing looks like this:

  • Deposit: CHF 300 or 20% at booking (example).
  • Balance due: 60 days before the session starts.

We tell families the exact due dates in the contract and send payment reminders. We also note any card fees up front so there are no surprises.

Standard booking steps

Below are the steps we follow for most bookings:

  1. Inquiry: family contacts us or completes an online enquiry.
  2. Deposit: secure the place with the deposit amount.
  3. Contract / registration confirmation: we issue written confirmation once the deposit clears.
  4. Balance payment: final payment required (example: 60 days before start).
  5. Submit medical/dietary forms: required prior to arrival.
  6. Arrival instructions: we send pick‑up details, packing lists and meeting times.

Cancellation and refund examples

We require written cancellation and follow a tiered refund policy in many cases. Typical example scenarios include:

  • Cancel ≥ 61 days before start: 75% refund (less non‑refundable deposit CHF 300).
  • Cancel 31–60 days before start: 50% refund.
  • Cancel ≤ 30 days before start: no refund; deposit non‑refundable.

For illness cancellations we ask for a medical certificate. In many cases camps will offer credit for a future session instead of a cash refund. We always recommend checking the exact policy on your confirmation.

Insurance requirements and estimated costs

We require proof of travel medical insurance for many international campers and strongly recommend cancellation insurance. Typical expectations and cost ranges we see:

  • Cancellation insurance: CHF 40–150 per camper depending on the trip value.
  • Travel medical insurance: minimum cover often requested around CHF 100,000 for medical costs.

We ask families to upload policy evidence before arrival so we can confirm coverage. We can point you to recommended insurers on request.

Visa assistance and documentation

We provide invitation/confirmation letters on request to support Schengen visa applications. Processing times vary, so you should allow 2–8 weeks. We advise confirming visa needs early and booking your consulate interview once you have the written confirmation.

Transport, transfer options and cost examples

We list nearest airports and typical transfer times so you can plan logistics. Sample camp transfer details we reference:

  • Alpine Adventure Camp (Bernese Oberland): Bern (BRN) ~50 minutes; Zurich (ZRH) ~2h15. Transfers not included — surcharge CHF 120 roundtrip (example).
  • Lakeside Language & Activities (Lake Geneva): Geneva (GVA) ~45 minutes. Included transfers for set slots; off‑hour surcharge CHF 50.
  • STEM & Robotics International (Graubünden): Zurich (ZRH) ~2.5 hours by rail + minibus; transfer surcharge CHF 150 roundtrip.
  • Sun & Sail Camp Valais: Sion (SIR) ~40 minutes; Geneva ~1h15.
  • Creative Arts Day Camp Ticino: Lugano / Milan Malpensa ~60–90 minutes; camp suggests train or car.

Sample roundtrip travel cost estimates (economy)

  • London → Geneva: CHF 120–250 (example).
  • New York → Zurich: CHF 600–1,200 (example).
  • Paris → Geneva (train): CHF 50–150 (example).

Arrival logistics — what we insist you confirm in writing

We never advise booking non‑refundable international flights until you have final camp confirmation, especially if you’re on a waitlist. Always get these items in writing:

  • Deposit amount and non‑refundable status.
  • Exact balance due date and acceptable payment methods.
  • Refund percentages for each cancellation window.
  • Whether transfers are included and any off‑hour surcharges.
  • Any age‑specific transfer or supervision requirements.

If a camp offers a shuttle, confirm arrival windows and late arrival fees. For booking windows and timelines we also recommend consulting our guide on when to book.

Accommodation, Meals, Facilities and Activities

Accommodation types and per-camp summary

Below I list room types and the per-camp examples so you know what to expect before booking.

  • Alpine Adventure Camp: 4–6‑bed shared dorms; single‑room supplement CHF 150/week (subject to availability). Capacity per dorm block: 24 beds.
  • Lakeside Language & Activities: Mixed dorms (2–4 beds) and a few single rooms reserved for international leaders; room assignment on request.
  • STEM & Robotics International: Dorms of 2–3 beds; staff housed in lab housing; no single rooms for campers by default.

Meals and dietary handling

We provide three meals a day plus snacks — breakfast, lunch and dinner — with menus that lean on local Swiss fare and include vegetarian options. We handle common allergies if you give us dietary details at least 21 days before the session starts. We may ask for GP or doctor confirmation for severe allergies or medically required diets. Special diet requests are logged and shared with kitchen staff and group leaders before arrival.

Facilities and on-site medical provision

Our sites typically include a dining hall, medical centre or infirmary, climbing wall, sports fields, indoor hall and basic Wi‑Fi. Some camps add a swimming pool, STEM labs, art studios or boat storage depending on location. We keep medical staff or trained first‑aid personnel on site and provide clear instructions for prescription meds at registration. If you need full medical details per camp, check the specific session pages or the Parents guide.

Activities, intensity and prerequisites

I outline common activity categories and what we expect from campers. Typical offerings include:

  • Water sports: sailing, canoeing; some sessions require wetsuit rentals.
  • Alpine hiking and climbing: advanced climbs require prior experience and sometimes a certified belay test.
  • Mountain biking and via ferrata excursions: technical routes have minimum age and fitness standards.
  • Language classes (ESL/French), STEM labs (robotics, coding), arts & crafts, team‑building and local excursions.

We usually offer 6–12 activity choices per week, varying by camp and session date. Many alpine and water activities require minimum swimming ability or prior experience for advanced levels. We list all skill prerequisites on the session page and require signed waivers for specialized excursions like via ferrata. Some advanced trips carry extra fees.

Sample 7-day residential itinerary (Alpine Adventure Camp)

  1. Day 1 (Sat): Arrival 14:00–17:00; room allocation; safety briefing; welcome dinner.

  7. Day 7 (Fri): Pack‑up; 10:00 final presentation; departures after 12:00.

Excursions, overnight trips and extra costs

We often include excursions for sessions two weeks or longer; shorter sessions may offer half‑day trips like Lake Geneva. Optional excursions may carry extra fees. Expect add‑ons for specialist kit rentals (wetsuits, harnesses), optional excursions, single‑room supplements and late arrival transfers. We itemize extras at booking and on the session factsheet.

Accessibility, roommate requests and practical notes

We vary in wheelchair access; some facilities have limited access. We advise you request accessibility details at booking. We accept roommate requests during booking but can’t guarantee them. We recommend checking kit lists early and reserving single rooms quickly if you want private accommodation. For timing and availability guidance, consult our registration timeline.

Health, Safety, Staff Credentials, Required Data and Practical Checklist

We list on-site medical cover and nearest hospitals by camp so you can assess response times and evacuation planning.

  • Alpine Adventure Camp: nurse on-site during daytime with a doctor on-call 24/7; nearest hospital: Interlaken Regional Hospital, transfer time ~40 minutes.
  • Lakeside Language & Activities: nurse on-site 09:00–21:00; nearest hospital: Geneva University Hospitals (HUG), transfer time ~50 minutes.
  • STEM & Robotics International: nurse 24/7 plus a doctor on-call; nearest hospital: Graubünden Cantonal Hospital (Davos/Chur area), transfer time ~60–90 minutes.
  • Sun & Sail Camp Valais: first-aider on site and a nurse on-call; nearest hospital: Sion Hospital, transfer time ~35–45 minutes.
  • Creative Arts Day Camp Ticino: first-aider during camp hours; nearest hospital: Lugano Regional Hospital, transfer time ~45–60 minutes.

We insist on verified staff credentials and routine checks. Camps report DBS/Swiss criminal-record checks for on-site staff as typical; always ask camps for verification. We confirm that staff hold first aid/CPR certificates and that activity leads carry activity-specific qualifications such as Swiss mountain guide, RYA sailing instructor, or lifeguard certification. Staff-to-camper ratios vary by session (common ratios: 1:6, 1:8, 1:10) and we advise you to verify exact numbers for each session you book.

We make health documentation requirements explicit to avoid surprises at drop-off. There is no universal COVID or vaccine mandate across Swiss camps in 2026; policies vary by provider. Camps may still require routine vaccinations to be up to date—check the registration form. Required forms typically include:

  • completed medical form
  • clear medication instructions with dosing schedule
  • allergy action plans
  • emergency contact details
  • travel/insurance data

Submit these by the balance-due date or earlier—commonly 21–14 days before arrival.

Mandatory data & statistics to capture for each camp/session

Please include the following items verbatim in your file for each session:

  1. Exact session start and end dates (DD MMM YYYY) for each camp listed.
  2. Price per session and price per week in CHF for each session.
  3. Number of spots remaining per session as of the check date (include check date/time).
  4. Staff-to-camper ratio for each camp.
  5. Age ranges per camp.
  6. Deposit amount and payment schedule (amount and due dates).
  7. Cancellation/refund deadlines and percentages.
  8. Transfer times (minutes/hours) from nearest airport/station.
  9. Medical staff availability (hours/24h) and nearest hospital name and transfer time.
  10. Any available scholarship/discount percentages and deadlines.
  11. Historical occupancy or sell-out data (if available): % occupancy year-on-year.

We caution about waitlists and data hygiene. Waitlist offers can arrive late; do not book non-refundable travel until you have written acceptance. Cancellation fees often apply even if you accept a waitlist offer and later cancel. Always timestamp dynamic figures such as availability, price, and spots remaining. Keep a snapshot or PDF of the camp page where you retrieved those figures and link back to the source; our recommended reference is the registration timeline to align booking windows with camp deadlines.
