Asked on March 10th, 2025Looking for a group tour with the Matterhorn included.

We made an effort to find an alternative tour that includes a visit to the Matterhorn, but, regrettably, we were unable to locate one. However, we want to inform you that this tour offers an opportunity to view the Matterhorn through the Klein Matterhorn Excursion for CHF141.00 per person, along with the chance to enjoy the included highlights of the 'Stay With Stories'.

Asked on March 1st, 2025My wife uses walking stick to walk. She can walk without sticks under a quarter of a mile but at a slow pace. Is the Switzerland tour too difficult for her?
- TrafalgarOperator•Written March 2025
The activity level for this trip is balanced, with cumulative daily standing 1-3 hours, and daily walking up to 1-3 miles per day. Terrains involve flat and uneven surfaces like cobblestones, hills, and stairs. Guests should be able to get on and off the coach without assistance.

Asked on November 22nd, 2024On the Contrasts of Switzerland tour, it mentions visiting the highest peak Jungfraujoch but I don't see this listed in the itinerary specifically, could you confirm that this is part of the tour or something we can add on if it is not included.
- TrafalgarOperator•Written November 2024
Our sincerest apology, but on Trafalgar Tours end, visit to Jungfraujoch is no longer included on this adventure. We advised the TourRadar team to update their website itinerary to avoid misinformation like this. Nevertheless, this tour will have a must-see sightseeing to different places in Switzerland, which for sure you will enjoy.
