Hi there, This is also quite urgent and I would need input quickly because I need to organise the day trip very soon. Please find bellow my proposal. I have contacted a tourist office and we have drafted this proposition which is off the beaten track tourism for Switzerland and discovering the local area. Date: Wednesday 14th August 2013 The group will be split for morning activities and afternon activities and will be together for picnic and the travel back by boat from Neuchâtel to Vaumarcus. Well, we will need to split the group between more or less 5 coaches of 75 persons: BREAKFAST at Le Camp + All attendes will take a picnic provided by Le Camp. MORNING 9:30 - 12:00 Activity A. Visit of Mauler in Motier https://www.mauler.ch/ Activity B. Visit of La Chaux-de-Fonds and its museum about watches http://www.neuchateltourisme.ch/en/decouvertes/museums/clock-making-m-lanbspchaux-de-fonds.1500.html Activity C. Visit of an absinthe distillery in Couvet Activity D. Visit of Asphalt mine http://www.myswitzerland.com/en/destinations/top_attractions/travers-asphalt-mines.html Activity E. Hiking - there are nice possibilities in the area. More about that later. PIC NIQUE LUNCH 12:00 - 14:00 Everybody will be at Creux du Vent if the weather is good. In case of bad weather we can probably book a covered place for 300 person at Chézard-Saint-Martin (i haven't called yet). Just for those who want to have a look on Creux du Vent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creux_du_Van AFTERNOON 14h-15h transport to Neuchâtel 15h-18h visit of Neuchâtel, there will be a lot of musician and artists in the street from 17h in the city center which is a pedestrian area. The lake is always very close. For those who are intrested in technology we could arrange a visit to CSEM : http://www.csem.ch/site/ 18h-19 Neuchâtel - Vaumarcus by boat 19h30-20h30 Dinner at Le Camp DETAIL: I will need one volunter by activity in the morning who will be responsible and doing the activity. This can be arranged at a later stage. NOTE: As you can see there are nothing about price yet. But my guess is that it will work within budget. The biggest cost being transportation. Estimates transportation cost would be: 5 coaches: CHF 5000 Boat: CHF 3000 More on cost once the idea is rejected or approved. Please comment. Also My time is limited these days and help is welcome on this project. Cheers, Raphaël
