Switzerland holidays & tours
Explore Switzerland's spectacular Alps and picturesque towns on one of our popular escorted tours of Switzerland.
On our holidays in Switzerland you can cross the Alps on the famous Bernina Express train, passing translucent lakes, snow-capped mountains, Swiss chalets, waterfalls and glaciers. Or take the Gornergrat Bahn train for a winding mountain ascent with glorious views of the Matterhorn on one of our Switzerland tours.
Another romantic train journey on our Switzerland holidays is the Golden Pass Line; it crosses lush green valleys to Lake Geneva, linking the two romantic towns of Montreux and Lucerne. Our escorted tours of Switzerland will also take you to the historic capital, Berne, the beautiful medieval hilltop city of Lausanne, and Interlaken, where you will still find quaint old cottages with traditional wood carvings.
