Top 5 Mistakes to Avoid When Planning Meals for Tourist Groups
Share
Organizing a group trip is already a challenge—but when it comes to planning meals, things can quickly get complicated. Late deliveries, forgotten dietary needs, impractical food formats…
As a professional service specializing in the delivery of meals for tourist groups in Switzerland and France, we’ve identified the 5 most common mistakes—and how to avoid them with ease.
1. Forgetting Dietary Requirements
In any group, there are almost always specific needs: allergies, vegetarian or gluten-free options, no pork, halal, and more. Not taking these into account can lead to frustration—or even serious health risks.
Pro tip: Collect dietary restrictions when organizing the trip. We provide custom meal boxes with clear labels for special diets—no extra stress for the organizers.
2. Ordering at the Last Minute
Waiting until the day before to order meals is a common mistake. This limits menu options, increases the risk of delays, and may compromise food quality.
Our advice: Place your order at least 72 hours in advance, especially during busy tourist seasons. This ensures better planning, variety, and punctual delivery.
3. Choosing Meals That Are Hard to Eat on the Go
Eating on a bus, in a park, or on a walking tour isn’t the same as sitting at a restaurant. Too many sauces, fragile packaging, or dishes that need a table can ruin the experience.
Our solution: We offer convenient, ready-to-eat group meal boxes with wraps, boxed salads, cut fruits, dessert, and a drink—all with utensils and napkins included.
4. Forgetting to Include Drinks
It’s common to focus on the food and completely overlook drinks. But proper hydration is especially important for children, seniors, and active groups.
With us: Every meal comes with a drink included (bottled water or juice), so you don’t have to worry about buying extras.
5. Poor Communication About Delivery Location and Time
Not all delivery points are easy to reach: pedestrian zones, museums, and tourist sites may have restricted access or limited delivery times.
What to do: Always provide a clear delivery address, a precise time window, and a contact person on-site. We’re used to delivering to busy tourist spots in Switzerland and France and can help you plan the logistics.
