Mountains, Valleys and Lakes of Switzerland

Great tour of Switzerland. I probably wouldn't recommend doing it in the summer though. It was super hot in July but the scenery was just so beautiful. I especially loved the Swiss food and beer.

Tour was excellent and Switzerland such a beautiful country. Would be hard not to enjoy the scenery, mountains and lakes. Very relaxed tour with mostly 9am starts and two nights stays in each location very welcome. Hotels were very good except for Berne. Back Roads should consider not using this hotel. It was run down, in need of repair/painting/carpets and rooms were small. Our room was on the top floor in the eaves and you had to crawl around the bed to get in - impossible to stand up. I would suggest advising prospective travellers that this tour involves a lot of walking up hills and climbing steps so a certain level of fitness is necessary.

A wonderful tour, one of the best I have ever been on. We spent most of the time in country Switzerland, which is what I really like. Our last two nights were spent in Grindelwald, it is so beautiful there. To see the amazing waterfalls on the Rhine River was amazing. We made our own chocolate, helped make cheese, and visited a man who makes Alp horns. Staying at Vitznau on Lake Lucerne was just amazing too. It was good to stay in Bern too, to visit a city - for balance. We also had a wonderful, caring and professional tour guide, one of the best. Back Roads is now my number 1 tour company to travel with.

Th esize of the group (8) and their willingnessa to interact made all the difference.

Picturesque Switzerland! Blue-Roads Touring do a great job of managing to fit in so much whilst keeping the pace moderate & undemanding. The 2 night stays are what encourages us every time so your not packing up every day.
