Tours to Switzerland
Switzerland
Fancy a trip to the land of mountains, clocks, cheese and chocolate? Whether you’re keen to make the most of the winter slopes and fresh mountain air, or would rather spend your days getting lost in a world of lactose (sounds dreamy tbh), rest assured that we’ve got the Switzerland tour packages for you.
Adrenaline junkies can take their pick from world-class Swiss Alps skiing and snowboarding, or paragliding, skydiving, and white-water rafting with Interlaken Adventure Sports. Those heading over in summer can tie up their laces and explore scenic trails, alpine meadows, and majestic peaks with Jungfrau Region Hiking. Alternatively, if you’re after something a little less full on, take a ride on the world’s steepest cogwheel railway up Mount Pilatus with Lucerne Mountain Excursions.
When you’re not making the most of the great outdoors, explore vibrant hubs with Zurich City Tours and Geneva International City tours. Experience the unique blend of modernity and history, visit the United Nations headquarters and stroll along the beautiful lakefront.
Speaking of lakes, there is no better way to see the sites than from a Lake Geneva Cruise. We also highly recommend visiting Zermatt and snapping a pic or two of the iconic Zermatt Matterhorn Views - aka one of the most famous peaks in the Alps.
History lovers can step back in time at Bern Historic sites, wandering through the mediaeval streets of Switzerland’s capital. Last but certainly not least, no trip to Switzerland is complete without indulging your sweet tooth with a Swiss chocolate tour. Here you will learn about the fine art of chocolate-making and challenge your stomach's sampling capacity. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
