Trip Itinerary:
We kindly ask for your understanding that the final tour itinerary including our detailed recommendations can only be provided after your confirmation and down payment.
Day 1: Arrival in Zurich → Interlaken
The mountains are calling! But first, we would suggest stopping in Switzerland’s capital to stroll around in Bern's cute Old-Town which is a UNESCO world heritage site; and are you aware that the bear is not only the symbol of the canton? Bears live in the city center in a pit right on the other riverside of the old town.
For the next three nights, you will stay in Interlaken, located right between Lake Brienz and Lake Thun and presided over by the three mighty mountains, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.
Day 2: Day Excursion: Cheese & Chocolate
Combine food and hiking - get yourself a prepacked fondue rucksack and hike to one of the giant fondue pots (seating areas) to enjoy your delicious fondue. The area of Gstaad and Zweisimmen is known for its cheese delicacies.
Maison Cailler: This sense of imagination is paired with presentations on the different stages in the Cailler chocolate production process, which are relayed as part of the interactive audiovisual guided tour. Through cameras, the visitors can watch live as the ingredients of chocolate are processed.
Incl.: Chocolate Champion Course
Day 3: Canyoning & Jungfraujoch
Canyoning: The local canyon covers every aspect of the sport and makes a great introduction to canyoning. Travel through tall, narrow gorges and get up close and personal with nature. Short and sweet, this half day canyon will whet your appetite for more and it is only a ten-minute drive from our base.
Jungfraujoch: Icy air sweeps over your face, snow crunches underfoot, and the panorama almost takes your breath away: on one side the view of the Swiss Mittelland towards the Vosges, on the other the Aletsch Glacier, lined with four thousand meter peaks. Standing on the Jungfraujoch 3,454 meters above sea level, you can feel it with your first step: this is a different world. It's one you have to experience.
Day 4: Interlaken → Lugano
Via Lucerne: When the journey becomes an adventure: you are discovering history on the Gotthard Panorama Express. A unique combination of boat and train travel en route between Central Switzerland and Ticino.
Day 5: Day Excursion: Lake Como
After a short train ride, your tour will begin in the border town of Chiasso, where Swiss precision and Italian Mediterranean flair meet. From here with your e-MTB, you will cycle towards Lake Como, along a magnificent panoramic road. The Alps will be the backdrop that will keep us company throughout your guided tour until you break for lunch in a restaurant with delicious regional dishes. In the afternoon, passing through small characteristic villages, pastures, and vineyards along dirt roads and fun trails, you will return to your starting point to enjoy an excellent aperitif.
Day 6: Lugano → Lucerne
Back to Lucerne, you'll take the Inter City instead of the Panoramic Train to make up some time. Sitting on the foot of the mountain Pilatus, Lucerne is often voted as one of the prettiest cities in the world, featuring a colorful old town and 14th-century city walls, as well as covered bridges including the iconic Kapellbrücke with its 17th-century art.
Today is reserved to visit and hike on the house mountain Pilatus. Commissioned in 1889, a gradient of up to 48 percent, about 30 minutes travel time: that is the steepest cogwheel railway in the world in figures. Meter by meter it scales the way from Alpnachstad to Pilatus Kulm, passing alpine meadows and striking rock formations.
Day 7: Lucerne → Zurich Airport:
The airport is very well connected from Lucerne which will allow you to maybe get some souvenirs or just enjoy a hot coffee on the shores of the Lake.
We are confident that this itinerary will provide some exclusive memories for you and your family until it is time to say: "Ade, Au revoir, ciao and hope to CYou again in Switzerland"
