We had a great time. The places that they chose for each area were good ones. We liked all the hotels except for one and it was mostly due to outside noise that you can hear until late at night because it is situated in front of a bar. I can go into more details into each hotel and tour site if you want me to but overall this was an excellent trip

Roman • traveled in January, 2026
On the positive side, it was a good programme to visit 4 countries, great chose of hotels, knowledgeable and friendly travel director, Carl. On the other side, his information about stores being closed on January 01-02nd was predominantly wrong. Two dinners were arranged at a very inconvenient hour, I.e. at 16.00 which somehow disappointed the entire group. Horse riding in a carriage was offered twice which was too much. Generally the trip left a good impression, it was worth going during the festive week around the New Year celebration.

Best time to visit Germany and Switzerland
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter brings out something special in these regions. Our most popular winter tour takes you through Bavaria and the Swiss Alps, where you'll explore the medieval lanes of Rothenburg ob der Tauber before heading to Munich's Marienplatz with its famous Glockenspiel. Several tours include Salzburg, where you can taste traditional Lebkuchen with warming Glühwein at the Christmas markets. The Rhine Valley routes are particularly magical in winter - you'll cruise past frost-dusted castles and visit traditional wine cellars for tastings. One standout tour combines Heidelberg's Renaissance charm with Black Forest traditions, including a demonstration of cuckoo clock making. Our travelers especially love the evening dinners in historic beer halls and the horse-drawn carriage rides through snowy Alpine villages.

- Spring 2026
Spring tours really shine when the tulips bloom along the Rhine. River cruises from Basel to Amsterdam are incredibly popular, with stops at Breisach for wine tasting and Strasbourg for walks through the historic La Petite France quarter. The highlight for many guests is visiting Keukenhof Gardens - you can take a boat through the tulip fields or cycle around the surrounding countryside. Several tours include special spring activities in the Swiss Alps, where you'll ride cable cars up to Glacier 3000 and walk across dramatic suspension bridges with snow-capped peaks all around. Our travelers particularly enjoy the spring tours that combine Paris and Swiss destinations, starting with visits to Versailles and ending with scenic train rides along Lake Zurich.

- Summer 2026
Summer tours across Germany and Switzerland blend outdoor activity with rich cultural immersion in thoughtful ways. The comprehensive 17-day routes take you across Lake Geneva by boat to explore medieval Yvoire, and let you walk suspended bridges high above Alpine valleys at Glacier 3000. Around Lake Constance, Switzerland's network of cycling paths offers an active way to discover three countries during warm months. Our travelers consistently highlight the summer rail experiences, particularly the Bernina Express with its panoramic cars showcasing mountain meadows at peak bloom. From Basel, Rhine river cruises combine urban discoveries in places like Strasbourg's La Petite France district, and peaceful sailing past hilltop castles and sloping vineyards. Many guests choose the 7-10 day mixed-transport routes that pair guided walks through Munich's historic heart with relaxed evenings to discover local beer gardens and traditional dining spots. The magic of these summer itineraries lies in maximizing long daylight hours, giving you time for both structured activities and independent exploration of charming town centers.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn creates perfect conditions for discovering Germany and Switzerland, with several standout tours running during this season. Multi-country routes begin in Prague and wind through Bavaria into Switzerland when summer tourists have dispersed, making temperatures ideal for walking explorations. Our travelers speak highly of visiting 17 Swiss destinations in fall, where stops include the medieval charm of Yvoire and crystal-clear mountain views from suspended bridges at Glacier 3000. Basel's Rhine cruises shine particularly bright in autumn as you float past hillsides draped in golden vineyards, explore the enchanting La Petite France quarter in Strasbourg and join the wine harvest celebrations in Rüdesheim. Active visitors love Lake Constance's cycling paths in autumn, where you can pedal across three countries on well-marked trails, visit remarkable sites like St. Gallen's abbey library and discover medieval harbors while enjoying mild weather and quieter paths. The combination of pleasant temperatures, seasonal festivals and reduced crowds makes autumn an excellent choice for exploring these regions, whether you're interested in guided city walks or combining urban discoveries with mountain excursions.
