Serene beauty meets medieval history. Glacier-cut mountain peaks from the Alps lock in Switzerland and compete for its skyline. Across the Swiss Plateau, Alpine marmots skitter over grassy flatlands as mountain dwellers sound the trumpet-like harmonics of alphorns. Locals from the small villages of Interlaken and Grindelwald splash with fish in sunken lakes.
Move out of the plateau and into the narrow cobblestone streets, where you can shop Zurich’s colourful Bahnhofstrasse Street while Swiss folk musicians entertain you with centuries’ old music. Fraumunster Cathedral bathes the medieval roads in shadow, its stained-glass windows creating a kaleidoscopic backdrop.
Our small group Switzerland tours take you from the snowy mountains of St. Moritz’s exclusive ski resort to the frenzy of Zurich. Lose yourself in ancient cities and remote villages, relax in hidden lakes, and discover the unending history of this tiny country.
