EnquireStaying up in the Swiss Alps, this tour takes in the best of Alpine elegance. Enjoy iconic rail journeys and visits to Zermatt and Montreux.
Meet your Tour Manager at London St Pancras International, where you board the Eurostar to Paris. Continue from there to Geneva and on to Leysin, where you stay for the next six nights. Enjoy the next day at leisure to explore this charming village.
Your excursion today sees you travel to the quaint town of Montreux. Stretching out into the crisp blue of Lake Geneva, Montreux offers a true taste of Swiss class. You may wish to visit the imposing Chateau de Chillon, an impressive castle just a short distance from the town.

Today visit the wonderful town of Zermatt, hidden beneath the instantlyrecognisable pyramidical peak of the Matterhorn. Your time here is yours, you may wish to visit some of the boutique shops which line the streets or take a walk into the neighbouring mountains, where many beautiful walking trails bring you closer to the incredible natural landscapes for which this corner of the world is so rightly famous.
Leaving Leysin and Switzerland behind today, we travel by rail to Paris, where we board the Eurostar service to London.
