Reviews of our Switzerland Tours for August
Feedback from guests who toured Switzerland during August.
Tamas K. | Traveled in August
The trip was absolutely great, if you want to drink a bit less, spend more time actively I definitely recommend this trip. However be advised: -When Contiki says people on this trip are from all around the world they mean most people are from Australia and some from New Zealand, UK and US. So if English is not your first language you will struggle a bit. But even with my more or less fluent English I had an amazing time and that's the biggest praise I can give. - Do the whole Active Alps trip, only the Austrian or the Swiss Alps trip is way too short to really get to know the people you are travelling with and it will rob you from half of the experience. (Contiki might not offer this trip as a modular one next year, so this might be an already out dated comment. )

Saw a lot in a short amount of time. EXCELLENT Tour Director - Did all but one add on to the tour. Would highly recommend this tour. Especially loved the stops with the bee keeper and the lunch she prepared and the discussion about the wine she makes. We also made a beehive candle! Also enjoyed the appetizers at another home which was a stop. Got to meet local people. Train travel was wonderful. Scenery breathtaking. Went to the top of the Matterhorn and the top of another mountain in Lucerne. FANTASTIC TRIP!!!!!
Pamela F. | Traveled in August
I saw so much of Switzerland on this journey it was at a great pace for the older person. Our tour director was the best, made sure everyone was happy and taken care of and always seemed to go over and above to please and our driver was so professional, she made you feel very safe on those very narrow winding roads.
