Summer brings alpine hikes and swims in the pristine Lakes Geneva and Lucerne.

Afterwards, retreat to your wooden chalet to warm up with hot chocolate by the fire.

Jungfrau railway, SwitzerlandLucerne, luxury travel holiday, Switzerland

In the eyes of our expert advisors, no trip to Switzerland would be complete without a visit to Jungfraujoch, the “Top of Europe”, accessible by a scenic train journey that showcases the indescribable splendour of the Swiss Alps. Across Switzerland, nature's artistry is on full display—a celebration of the great outdoors.

Verbier Valais, luxury travel holiday, Switzerland
  • "For your quintessential Swiss experience, head to Grindelwald, one of the most picturesque and postcard-perfect villages in Switzerland. Access many Swiss majestic mountains from Grindelwald such as the Eiger and Jungfraujoch and marvel at the breathtaking views and spectacular scenery."

    Craig Martin
    Streeter & Turner Travel Associates, Christchurch
  • "As the sun sets over the mountains, gather around a warm pot of bubbling cheese fondue—a favorite Swiss tradition. Dip chunks of bread into the rich mix of Gruyère and Emmental, and sip on some crisp local wine. It’s more than just a meal—it’s a simple, joyful way to share the moment."
