How Explera supports the Switzerland trade.
Explera contracts Japan for Switzerland to a winter-sun calendar, with twin-centre city-plus-beach programs and package-travel documentation. One consolidated invoice per file keeps reconciliation simple, even across multi-city itineraries.
You get net rates quoted in your currency, a single point of contact, and proposals you can forward to clients under your own brand. Series allocations are reconciled on a regular cycle so your finance team stays in control of every file.
Pacing leaves real beach time between excursions, dining skews to authentic local tables we have inspected, and elephant programs are sanctuary-only. Drivers run our own insured, GPS-tracked fleet, and the 24/7 duty desk covers every ground hour of the trip.

Asked by agents in Switzerland.
Why do Swiss travel agents need a Japan DMC?
For Switzerland, a DMC turns Japan into a single accountable supply chain — one contract, one invoice, one 24/7 desk — instead of chasing individual hotels and operators.
How fast are quotations for this market?
Standard quotations come back inside a day for Switzerland, with detailed MICE proposals following in a few business days.
Do you provide language support for Switzerland?
English-language account management is standard, and German, French, Italian and Spanish guides are assigned to match your clients.
Which parts of Japan do Swiss clients book most?
Swiss clients are matched to the parts of Japan that suit their dates and pace, with seasonality driving the routing.
How do agencies in Switzerland settle invoices with Explera?
Switzerland partners settle by bank transfer or card in their currency, with written confirmation on every payment; full account details are on the payments page.
Is Explera a licensed, accredited operator?
Yes — Explera operates under JATA membership and IATA accreditation 96215733, with registered entities in Hong Kong and India. Licence numbers are printed on every quotation so your compliance team can verify before contracting.
What is the minimum group size or booking value?
There is none — the same net-rate access covers a two-person honeymoon and a 500-delegate incentive. Most Switzerland partners start with one FIT booking to test the service.
Can Explera white-label documents for our agency brand?
Yes — itineraries, vouchers and pickup boards can carry your branding, with Explera appearing only as the ground operator. Your client relationship stays yours.
