Just wondering if there was any news yet about hotels for this? I rang customer services earlier, who said that hotels would be known 6 weeks before departure as per usual. Well, that’s not “usual” normally you know at booking, and that’s 22 months ago. So challenged this, the man I spoke to said it was normal for Oberammergau trips. Well it’s 10 years since the last play, so not a normal schedule for Just You! I’ve seen the play in Oberammergau twice, yes, I accept it was always last minute information for local accommodation there, but never before not known where else I would be staying during the Holiday! All I know at the moment is Innsbruck. Obviously it is different circumstances to normal resort holidays, but still, since most of the holiday is spent well away from Oberammergau, surely reservations for those hotels have now been made, as for any Just you holidays next year. Also in Oberammergau, a few weeks ago, chatting to the staff in the Passion Play Theatre museum, they recommended checking with the tour company I had booked through that the reservations definitely had been made for the play. I asked customer services, just got a general covering answer. So just wondering. Thanks.

Hi Charley,

I can confirm that all reservations have definitely been made for the play, and accommodation has been booked, so please don't worry about that.

Regarding the accommodation, it is correct that for Oberammergau we will not receive that information from the local organisers until nearer the time, this is just due to the size of the event and how it's organised.

As soon as we can, we will inform customers where the accommodation will be.

Many thanks,

Vickie

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I’m well aware that I am not able to find out where I will stay in Oberammergau. However, as I said previously, it’s the holiday destination I would like to know. Customer services had said it wasn’t possible for them to say, as Oberammergau holidays, hotels aren’t released, well that’s not true, SINCE IN THE BROCHURE, the sister holiday, Oberammergau and the Tyrol, the resort and hotel are given as Soll and Hotel Fuchs, so why can’t i know where I’m staying on the Oberammergau and Dolomites trip? It feels like a mystery trip! But glad to know the theatre tickets are confirmed, having had friends in previous years who got all the way there before they found the tickets were invalid!
