Discover Switzerland, Austria & Bavaria

Discover spectacular Switzerland, Austria, and Bavaria on a tour featuring four-night stays in two cities.

Arrive in Bern, Switzerland’s charming capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With its cobblestone streets and medieval architecture, Bern feels beautifully preserved in time. As arrival times will vary, there is no scheduled sightseeing today. Spend the day as you wish, exploring the city independently. This evening, gather with your fellow travelers for a welcome dinner featuring local cuisine.

Enjoy a panoramic sightseeing tour of Bern with a local guide. Highlights include the Bundeshaus (the Swiss Parliament), the famous Bear Pit, the Rose Gardens, and the soaring Gothic cathedral that crowns Old Town’s skyline. The afternoon is free to explore independently. Perhaps you’ll take a ride on the Gurtenbahn funicular, climbing Gurten Mountain to an altitude of 2574 feet (785 meters) for sweeping views of the city and the surrounding countryside.

Today, enjoy the morning at leisure in Bern. This afternoon, travel to Habkern, a postcard-perfect mountain village near Interlaken. Start your afternoon with a fondue lunch at a local restaurant before enjoying a visit at a local workshop to learn how the alphorn is crafted, and enjoy a lively yodeling demonstration led by a professional performer. Enjoy an evening at leisure in Bern.
