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 Geneva → Montreux
Follow the northern shoreline of Lake Geneva to get to the Montreux Riviera where you can enjoy the afternoon on the shores of Lake Geneva. As part of your travel arrangement we will include the entry into the Chateau Chillon: If ever a castle could fit the fairy-tale bill, the dashingly handsome Château de Chillon would be it, with its moat, double ramparts and riot of turrets and towers, plus knockout views of Lake Geneva and the French Alps.
In the evening you should check out the Montreux Christmas market which is well known worldwide.
Day 2: Montreux → Interlaken
Today another magnificent train ride is awaiting you - the Golden Pass. Personally, this is my favorite train line, even though it is short compared to the Glacier Express. Making its way up the steep mountain ridge you shouldn't miss a single moment! These tracks are also the only way crossing the nature parc of Gruyère - cars have to make a detour for hours to experience what you can do, stressless in one of the baroque wagons of the Golden Pass.
The chocolate train (and bus) will bring you to the Maison Cailler for an informative and delicious chocolate tour. Shortly after we'll invite you on an audio-guided tour of the Maison de Gruyère to learn more about one of Switzerland's most important cheeses!
Day 3: Interlaken: Day Excursion - film locations
In the first season of the Korean Netflix series “Crash Landing on You”, the two megastars Son Ye-Jin and Hyun-Bin were filmed in Switzerland on the Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe, Kleine Scheidegg, Eigergletscher and Grindelwald-First – Top of Adventure..
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 to Zermatt
Via the beautiful Kandervalley and Lötschbergtunnel, you will arrive in the canton of Valais. Only one more train ride away lies Zermatt. The car-free town of Zermatt is located at the foot of Switzerland's landmark - the impressive Matterhorn.
It's Christmas Eve! Is there any better place to celebrate Christmas?
Day 5: Zermatt
You will have the chance to discover Zermatt on the foot of Switzerland's natural landmark. Take up the cable car to the Glacier Paradise, Europe's highest cable car station (3883 meters). One of the highlights is certainly the platform with a view over 38 four-thousand-meter peaks and 14 glaciers of the Swiss, Italian and French Alps.
Wintersports: If you'd like we'd love to organize some snow shoes for you to walk back down on a poled path from the Black Lake. We could also organize an instructor if this finds your interest.
Please be aware that during Christmas everything slows down in Europe (except Ski and Snowsports).
Day 6: Zermatt → St. Moritz
Today we will add another highlight to your travel memories: The famous Glacier Express train ride. Over its entire length, the Glacier Express leads over 291 bridges and through 91 tunnels over the Swiss Alps.
On your trip from Zermatt, the train winds ist way through remote valleys, past sheer rock faces, idyllic mountain villages, over the Landwasser Viaduct, and through the Rhine Gorge, the Grand Canyon of Switzerland.
Day 7: St. Moritz to Lucerne (via Zurich)
To get to Zurich and later on to Lucerne you have to stop in Landquart: If you would like to do some shopping or equip yourselves for your next days in the mountains, you might want to check out the Landquart fashion outlet.
To cover Liechtenstein: A private driver guide will pick you up in Landquart and accompany you through the Heidi Land to Liechtenstein. He/She will explain you a little more about Switzerland and its history too and will drop you off in Saargans from where you can easily continue your travels to Zurich and Lucerne.
Day 8: Lucerne:
Lucerne's Old Town is rated every year among the most beautiful towns in the world. Stroll around before you we will invite you on a boat cruise on Lake Lucerne.
As a final highlight, we will include the oldest cogwheel train of Switzerland up to the top of Mount Rigi, the queen of all mountains. Enjoy once more the scenery of the Alps and Lake Lucerne.
Day 9: Lucerne to Como
Via the Gotthard tunnel, you'll cross the Alps one last time to enter Italy and arrive at Como.
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"
Day 10: Como to Milano:
At leisure.
Milano is very well connected from Como which will allow you to maybe get some souvenirs or just enjoy a hot coffee on the shores of the Lake.
