  Alps

  104 tours

  Switzerland's mountain railways give you some of Europe's most beautiful train rides. The GoldenPass and Glacier Express show you wide views across dramatic alpine terrain. These routes connect charming mountain villages where traditional Swiss culture works alongside modern conveniences. Summer months from June through August bring perfect hiking conditions with clear mountain trails and comfortable temperatures around 70°F (21°C). Winter changes the landscape into a snow-covered wonderland that's perfect for skiing and snowshoeing adventures. Many Swiss trips combine mountain experiences with cultural city visits which is different from standard alpine tours. This lets you experience both natural beauty and urban life. The region's efficient transport network makes it easy to explore multiple valleys and peaks during one visit.

  Swiss Alps

  41 tours

  The Swiss Alps showcase incredible Michelin-star dining right in small mountain villages like Kandersteg, where local chefs create meals that easily match urban restaurants' quality. A standout touch that our guests mention often is the thoughtfully prepared trail lunches, served with perfect timing at scenic spots - it really elevates a regular hike into something memorable. The Haute Route perfectly demonstrates how Swiss attention to detail meets mountain grandeur, with skilled guides leading intimate groups along routes that connect the region's finest peaks and valleys. Summer brings carpets of wildflowers and exceptional visibility, while winter delivers ideal conditions for both skiing and snowshoe explorations. Many of our clients particularly enjoy visiting in late spring or early autumn, when there's more space on the trails and you can watch the alpine meadows change with the seasons.

  Rhine

  6 tours

  Rhine River cruises really shine during the warm months of May through September when the weather works in your favor. The Rhine Gorge steals the show as a UNESCO-protected stretch where castle-topped cliffs meet terraced vineyards along the water's edge. Many of our travelers tell us they love discovering authentic regional specialties like Rudesheimer coffee, while the professional crew handles all the details. It's a genuinely relaxing way to explore - you unpack once and let the changing landscape come to you. September deserves special mention since local wine festivals pop up during harvest season, adding an extra dose of local culture to your time on the river.
