Destination & Sightseeing

ITINERARY

A SWISS WELCOME
Arrive with an included transfer from Zurich Airport (ZRH) or Bern Airport (BRN) and check into Bellevue Palace Bern. This evening, enjoy a warm welcome to Switzerland's capital with a private reception and dinner among vaulted halls and quiet courtyards. 

BERN AND THE ART OF TIME
Bern's arcaded streets come alive with a local expert on a walk through the Old Town. Step inside the Zytglogge Clock Tower for behind-the-scenes access to its medieval mechanism – still ticking in the 21st century. Tonight, dine like a local and meet the brewmaster at a beloved restaurant overlooking the city. YOUR CHOICE Spend the afternoon your way – walk or cycle along the Aare River, browse the farmers' market, and hike nearby trails.

CYCLING, CHEESE, AND WINE
Travel by train to Burgdorf and explore the Swiss countryside by e-bike, cycling past green hills, wooden chalets, and cow-dotted pastures. Stretch your legs at a hillside vineyard for a private wine tasting before continuing to a traditional farmstead for a hands-on cheese-making demonstration and lunch. Return to Bern in the late afternoon. Enjoy a nightcap at your hotel's sophisticated bar later this evening. YOUR CHOICE Continue exploring Bern your way – wander the arcaded streets, follow the Aare River, or hop on a train with your included Swiss Travel Pass and see where the afternoon leads. Dine at a local favorite, perhaps even one of the city's Michelin-starred restaurants.

ON TO ZERMATT & CULINARY CREATIONS
This morning, board a scenic train to Zermatt, where Alpine peaks, glimmering lakes, and deep valleys unfold beyond your window. Once in Zermatt, roll up your sleeves for an interactive cooking workshop with a chef to prepare rösti – a traditional Alpine favorite. Later, meet the hotel's mixologists and experiment with crafting the perfect cocktail. YOUR CHOICE Explore Zermatt's car-free streets, boutique shops, and relaxed mountain energy at your leisure this evening. 

MEET THE MATTERHORN UP CLOSE
This morning, when visibility is often at its clearest and the light sharpest, ascend to Glacier Paradise on a peak nicknamed the "Little Matterhorn." Rising nearly 13,000 feet above sea level, climb by gondola through snow and ice to a sweeping panorama of 14 glaciers stretching across three countries. Tonight, dine high on the mountain for a private alpine meal. YOUR CHOICE Ride the historic Gornergrat Railway for iconic Matterhorn vistas, hike from Riffelberg toward Riffelalp, or linger at the summit soaking in the scenery. This afternoon, craft your own chocolate Matterhorn as a sweet Swiss keepsake.

ALPINE ADVENTURE
Design your final day in Zermatt, your way.  Tonight, bid your week in Switzerland farewell at a private reception and dinner at your hotel. YOUR CHOICE Soar above the valley on a guided paragliding adventure, embrace summer downhill skiing, or join a local guide for a scenic hike through the Five Lakes region, where crystalline waters mirror the surrounding peaks.

Journey On
After breakfast at your hotel, your time in Zermatt comes to a close. Travel by train to Täsch, where you'll meet your luggage for an included transfer to Geneva Airport (GVA). YOUR CHOICE Morning departures or extend your stay in Zermatt.
