The actual vehicle provided is confirmed based on live availability before booking—there are no standard or automated options.

Winter Preparation and Peak Travel Considerations
Winter driving regulations apply on mountain routes from approximately 1 November to 31 March, requiring snow tyres or chains; your concierge confirms these details in your individual offer according to seasonal laws and prevailing conditions. Demand peaks at Christmas, New Year and during February school holidays, with Saturday arrivals and departures especially popular. It is advisable to make your request early for your preferred vehicle and timing during these high-demand periods.
