Switzerland
High-quality hospitalityThese are inspiring regions to discover. Standards of hospitality are high, with excellent hotels. We feature mostly 3- and 4-star establishments, some of which have been welcoming travelers for several generations. Wherever you go, expect to eat and drink well too – culinary delights include heady fondues and tasty rösti (potato cakes), accompanied by a cool beer or the refreshing Swiss wines. As you walk, welcoming mountain cafés seem to turn up at just the right moment for a refreshing break. Grand scenery & quiet valleys

Summer in the mountain villages of Switzerland has a special magic. Fresh mountain air and bright sunshine invite you to enjoy an outdoor life – walks through flower-filled meadows and into the mountains, or visits to picture-book villages and historic towns. Whether you choose to be active or just relax and appreciate the magnificent surroundings, these mountains seem to have a unique ability to refresh and revitalize. Travelers over the centuries have marveled at mountains such as the Matterhorn and the Eiger, and there is an indisputable romance to be surrounded by such peaks.
We have sought out the quieter areas, like the idyllic Engadine and the Jura, and traditional villages such as Kandersteg and Mürren in the Bernese Oberland. Choose from challenging high-altitude hikes, flexible routes that can be tailored to suit you, or a walking tour in the mountains around Lake Lucerne which combines walking and thrilling journeys. We offer most of our walking tours through late September and into October, the two months preferred by the Swiss themselves for walking because of the clear views, settled weather and wonderful tranquility.
