Switch up your mode of transportation in Täsch, where you’ll board a mountain train to car-free Zermatt, a picturesque cluster of rustic chalets beneath the famous Matterhorn.
If picturesque lakes are more your style, you won’t want to miss Lake Maggiore, Italy’s second-largest lake; stunning Lake Geneva; Lake Lugano, which enjoys a subtropical climate; Interlaken, situated between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz; and Lake Lucerne, nestled in the shadows of the snow-capped Alps.
One of the tour’s highlights is the journey aboard the Bernina Express train from St Moritz to Tirano, Italy. This epic rail journey takes you on the highest railway across the Alps, revealing stunning vistas of glistening glaciers, mountain streams, and Alpine scenery. Travel through tunnels and over bridges that are engineering masterpieces!
Other trip highlights include a visit to a local cheese factory in Gruyères, a picturesque medieval town that has been uniquely preserved over time. And don’t forget to check out Switzerland’s capital, Berne, and the charming storybook city of Lucerne, nestled at the foot of majestic peaks.

Start your tour by checking into your hotel and dropping your bags before meeting your tour director and rest of your group that evening. The next morning is a sensational drive that will take you on a journey through some of Switzerland’s most well-known cantons. Visit to Appenzell, where you can discover the charming Old Town with its impressive 16th-century Town Hall. Next, explore the quaint Principality of Liechtenstein and its capital, Vaduz. Drive through the picturesque Heidiland and the stunning Rhine Valley before ascending the mighty Julier Pass. Be prepared to marvel at Switzerland’s largest canton, the Grisons, and some of the world’s best alpine views. Admire the glamour of St. Moritz, which has had the honor of hosting two Winter Olympic Games (in 1928 and 1948) and has been a favorite winter retreat for European royalty, celebrities, and the international jet set for over a century. You’ll spend the next two nights in this dazzling location.
Luxury Coach to St Mortiz
St. Moritz is a remarkable destination with amazing forest, lake, and mountain views and an average of 322 days of sunshine each year. It is comprised of two villages: St. Moritz Dorf and St. Moritz Bad. The terraced Dorf, situated on the slope from the lake, boasts grand hotels, upscale boutiques, and traditional Engadin architecture. The area is characterized by arched wooden doors, small windows, and etched facades. Nearby, the town of Bad offers an ice rink, mineral and mud baths, and a beautiful lakeside promenade.
Don’t be too disappointed to be leaving here after two nights though, as you have one of Europe’s best and most incredible train rides, in the Bernina Express. That’s all we’ll say on that for now so we don’t ruin the surprise – but trust us, this isn’t a train for sleeping!
Luxury Coach to Lugano
Rendezvous with your coach and travel towards the picturesque shores of Lake Lugano. Experience the wonders of the charming subtropical Lugano before heading to Lake Maggiore, which is the second largest lake in Italy. You could opt for a boat trip to visit the exotic garden island of Isola Bella, that boasts of a stunning 17th-century palace.
Luxury Coach to Zermatt-area
Return to Switzerland via the stunning Simplon Pass to reach your overnight destination – a resort surrounded by Switzerland’s highest mountains, including the renowned Matterhorn, where you’ll spend the night. Take a leisurely stroll through the car-free town of Zermatt, which you can get to via an alpine train connected to Täsch. While there, indulge in local specialties such as raclette (melted Swiss cheese), fondue, or handcrafted chocolate, and maybe even shop for an authentic Swiss watch. After, rejoin the coach in Täsch and continue your journey through the enchanting lower Rhône Valley’s vineyards and apricot groves to crescent-shaped Lake Geneva – one of Europe’s largest lakes.
Luxury Coach to Lausanne-area
Start your day with a yummy breakfast, and then choose your own adventure — either explore the beautiful surrounding areas of Lausanne or join us on an exciting optional trip to the fairytale-like city of Geneva. Walk along the charming cobblestoned streets of the Old Town or marvel at the Palais des Nations, the European HQ of the United Nations.
Luxury Coach to Lucerne
The day starts with a visit to a local cheese factory in beautiful Gruyères. Then, continue the journey to Berne, the capital of Switzerland, which is home to stunning medieval architecture, arcaded shops, and the landmark Zytglogge, an animated astronomical clock built in 1530. Next, travel along the shoreline of Lake Thun and stop at the popular resort town of Interlaken, before crossing Brünig Pass to Lucerne.
Experience the stunning city of Lucerne, nestled among the snow-capped Alps and located on the shores of Lake Lucerne. Cobblestone streets bordered with frescoed houses, the iconic Chapel bridge, and the touching Lion monument, are some highlights of the city. Optional activities, including an excursion to mount Stanserhorn, are available to choose from to make the trip even more memorable.
