Stop 1

Lucerne is one of Switzerland’s most picturesque cities, nestled between snow-capped mountains and the sparkling Lake Lucerne. Its charming Old Town is a treasure trove of history, featuring colorful medieval buildings, narrow cobblestone streets, and lively town squares. Stroll across the iconic Chapel Bridge, Europe’s oldest covered wooden bridge, and admire the historic Water Tower. Visit the elegant Jesuit Church, a masterpiece of baroque architecture. A short walk away, the famous Lion Monument—carved into a sandstone rock face—commemorates the Swiss Guards who died during the French Revolution and remains one of Switzerland’s most moving landmarks. Whether you're exploring its quaint alleys or enjoying lakeside views, Lucerne effortlessly blends natural beauty with rich cultural heritage, making it a must-see destination in the heart of Switzerland.

Interlaken is a jewel of the Swiss Alps, perfectly set between the emerald waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. Surrounded by towering peaks—including the famous trio of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau—this alpine town is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.

Stroll through the charming streets of Interlaken, lined with traditional Swiss chalets and boutique shops, or relax in Höhematte Park, where colorful paragliders fill the sky against a breathtaking mountain backdrop. Take a scenic cruise on one of the lakes, or ride the funicular up to Harder Kulm for sweeping panoramic views of the valleys below.

Whether you’re exploring tranquil walking trails, tasting Swiss chocolate in a cozy café, or embarking on a thrilling outdoor adventure, Interlaken offers the perfect balance of excitement and serenity. With its stunning natural beauty and warm Swiss hospitality, it’s no wonder Interlaken is one of Switzerland’s most unforgettable destinations.

One of Switzerland’s most magical destinations, a breathtaking valley nestled deep within the Bernese Alps. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs and snow-dusted peaks, this idyllic alpine village feels like a scene from a fairytale — it inspired one of the greatest fantasy worlds ever imagined.

With its 72 cascading waterfalls, lush green meadows, and charming wooden chalets, Lauterbrunnen’s beauty famously captivated J.R.R. Tolkien, who visited the valley in 1911. The spectacular landscape later helped inspire his vision of Rivendell, the elven realm in The Lord of the Rings.

Visitors can stroll through the peaceful village, marvel at the towering Staubbach Falls, and breathe in the crisp mountain air as cowbells echo softly through the valley.

Whether you’re hiking among wildflowers, photographing waterfalls, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the Swiss Alps, Lauterbrunnen offers an experience that feels timeless and otherworldly — a true wonder blending nature, history, and legend.

Thun is a hidden gem at the gateway to the Bernese Alps, where medieval charm meets lakeside beauty. Set on the shores of shimmering Lake Thun and framed by snow-capped peaks, this picturesque town blends history, culture, and nature perfectly.

Stroll through the Old Town with its cobbled streets, colorful facades, and unique raised sidewalks. Climb to the 12th-century Thun Castle for panoramic views over rooftops and the turquoise lake. Walk along the Aare River, cross charming covered bridges, and enjoy a coffee at a cozy waterfront café.

With lively markets, lakeside promenades, and easy access to nearby alpine adventures, Thun captures the essence of Swiss life — offering visitors a perfect mix of serenity, scenery, and discovery.
