The tour was wonderful! Our Tour Manager was great! I really enjoyed touring Schonbrunn Palace and the evening concert in Vienna. Oberannergau was special. Over all a delightful trip!

This tour was so well worth the time and cost. It was absolutely breathtaking and historically interesting; our guide was not only fun but also like a walking encyclopedia with the wealth of her knowledge. While I’d go again - there are other places I’d like to travel to - especially via a Collette tour!
Cheryl K. | Traveled in May
My favorite parts of the tour were Zermatt, the scenic train rides through the Alps on the Glacier Express and the Bernina Express, and the scenic bus ride leaving St. Moritz on the way to Lucerne. I also very much enjoyed the dinner on Isola dei Pescatori at Lake Maggiore, Italy. Our tour guide Simona was perfection! She was so helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic! Loved this trip! So many memories made!

I was very happy with the tour. Very good experiences that showed me not only the scenery it the culture of the countries. I loved being able to see the alps up close. But the best part of the tour was the free time that was given us to explore on our own. Our tour guide gave us many suggestions as to what we could do.

This was an excellent tour. It was very well planned. The tour manager did an excellent job. All of the local tour guides were very knowledgeable. The bus driver was very skilled. There was only one optional tour, the Mount Pilatus trip. This tour was my favorite part of the trip - we went up to the top of Mount Pilatus on a gondola. The view was fantastic. We were lucky that the weather was beautiful for most of the tour.
