A tour company says its premium leisure travel prices for Europe will drop an average of 6 per cent next year.
Insight Vacations says the price drop is due to the strong New Zealand dollar and sharper pricing by suppliers.
Its Channel Islands-based chief executive John Boulding said prices for tours in Switzerland would fall by 20 per cent.
"Europe is a bargain," Boulding said. "In 2013 prices will come down by about 6 per cent due to the strength of the New Zealand dollar against the euro."
In Greece prices were down between 10 per cent and 12 per cent.
