10 Best July 2026 Tours in Switzerland
Join one of these handpicked Switzerland July 2026 tour packages, tailored to the season.
A fantastic introduction to the delights of Swiss Alps hiking including stays in famous Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen & Zermatt. This tour in the Bernese Oberland is the ideal walking introduction to the Alps of Switzerland. You travel to the two most spectacular and classical postcard regions of the Swiss Alps. The peaks of the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau overlook the valley towns of Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen, while the celebrated mountain town of Zermatt lies just below the towering Matterhorn. Each day, you can choose from a range of walks including maps, route notes and GPX files. The routes often come with differing grades and distances, so you can decide the nature of the walking yourself. Whether it be a high mountain trek along a Bergweg mountain path, or a valley stroll on a Wanderweg lower level trail. The flower-strewn alpine meadows in summer around Wengen and Murren and upon the Schynige-Platte walk are an unforgettable experience.
There are many opportunities for spending time sightseeing and utilising the extensive, Swiss mountain transport system to shorten walks. You'll stay in independent 2-3* hotels, with options to upgrade your accommodation. And if you prefer even more time to enjoy good fayre in the valley towns and mountain villages, please ask our team for advise on where to add extra nights.
This carefully prepared programme of walks also allows you time to take the mountain railway to the Jungfraujoch. This is the highest railway station in Europe at nearly 12,000 feet.

Walk beneath the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau for unrivalled panoramas of the Swiss Alps. This is a 'centre based' self-guided walking holiday in the Swiss Alps. Unpack only once in our inviting, independent 4* hotel in Meiringen and choose from a wide selection of walks to undertake in the next 6 days. Getting around in Switzerland is so easy that you can fill your time with excellent day walks.
Meiringen is the perfect centre for walking holidays for all grades. There are over 300km of well-marked footpaths, which range from gentle strolls to high ridges and even glacier exploring. In spring you can follow the melting snows into meadows of glorious Alpine flowers. In summer the high ridges and rugged glacial scenery become accessible. In autumn the landscape is painted with a riot of colour as the first frosts come. The potential for walking is limitless and our team have prepared for you route notes, maps and GPX files for the best routes in the area. Come rain or shine and whatever level of fitness you prefer each day, there'll be a suitable route to choose from.
Meiringen has none of the trappings of mass tourism. It is a small market town with excellent shops, banks and facilities. Thankfully, it remains unspoiled and very Swiss. The local people are welcoming, kind and hospitable.
The Alpine town is a natural transport hub situated at the convergence of three of Switzerland’s major passes. From here it is possible to set out each day in a different direction using the incredible network of cable cars, postbuses and mountain railways. You can reach the high places quickly and easily without the necessity of long uphill climbs out of the valley.
*Meiringen is on the main railway line from Luzern to Interlaken and trains run to and from those towns on an hourly timetable. Interlaken is a 30-minute journey and Luzern is 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfers from Zürich airport are a pleasure with the last leg of the journey into the mountains possible on the spectacular narrow-gauge Brünig line. (Departures will vary as the Interlaken route is more direct). Meiringen is also the centre for Postbus routes in the Eastern Oberland.

Walk the high trail from Verbier to Zermatt along the trekkers version of this famous route. The Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt is steeped in mountaineering legend, a route first taken by British climbers at the end of the 19th Century. We join this historic route above Verbier in Switzerland, where we are immediately immersed in the incredible mountain scenery. Skirting glaciers we ascend passes gaining breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks, including the 4000m+ peaks of Dent Blanche, Zinalrothorn and Weisshorn. On reaching Zermatt we take in the instantly recognizable form of the Matterhorn and appreciate the scale of this mountain and its tumbling glaciers with a hike along the Hornli Ridge. Staying in a mixture of comfortable alpine huts, gîtes and hotels, we experience traditional European mountain culture and the camaraderie of our fellow travellers. Suitable for experienced trekkers, this route is rugged at times with considerable altitude gains of up to 1000 metres per day, and a high level of fitness is essential.

Walk along stunning sections of one of the world's most iconic mountain trails in the Swiss Alps. The scenic Swiss canton of Valais is one of the most magnificent mountain regions in Europe. It is an alpine network of valleys that lead off into beautiful and little-visited areas, some of which rarely see a tourist.
This 9-day hotel-based Swiss Valais trek, following part of the well-known Haute Route, visits these remote districts. Here, the hiking is of true alpine character and charming villages lie in lush, green meadows, dominated by rugged and dramatic mountain scenery. There is some very dramatic scenery on offer, Mount Colon, the Pigne de Arolla, the Dent Blanche, Weisshorn and Dom, not mentioning a huge range of peaks at the head of the Mittertal Valley including the Matterhorn, and Briethorn.
Although the Haute Route is popular, you will find that, compared to many other areas in Switzerland, most of the paths on this section are little trodden. This gives rise to an excellent variety of alpine flowers and frequent sightings of alpine animals. As you cross the linguistic frontier from French-speaking to German-speaking Switzerland you have a chance to practice both languages. Many people praise their stay on this tour at a rather eccentric Victorian hotel with some of the Alps’ finest views and the top-notch accommodation that we book for you.

A quieter classic Alpine walk in Kandersteg and around the Wildstrubel Circuit between the Valais (French speaking) and Bernese Oberland (German) staying in hotels. This is a one-week, 'quieter' hotel trek in Switzerland, which starts and finishes at Kandersteg. Follow a circular route around the Wildstrubel and walk along two stages of the famous Alpine Pass Route. Throughout the hike, the scenery is expansive with views extending across the Oberland, to the 4000m peaks of the Valais, and down the Rhone valley.
You will use trails that have served since Roman times to link the German-speaking Bernese Oberland and the partly French-speaking Valais. Most notoriously there is the Gemmi Pass, which has been a principal route through the Alps for centuries. We will also cross the Rawyl, Lotschen and Hahnenmoos passes to link the attractive villages of Leukerbad, Crans, Lenk and Adelboden before completing our circuit in Kandersteg.
Our final pass, the Bundeschrinde, due to its beauty and position is perhaps the highlight of this walking holiday in Switzerland. The towering crags above the pass are a superb point for watching Chamoix (mountain antelope) prancing around upon the ledges.
You have an extra day in Kandersteg in which you can do a circular walk up to the Oeschinensee: a fantastic post glacial lake. Please talk to our team if you would like to add extra nights in some of the other places.
There are some long days but lifts and cable cars can sometimes be used to shorten some of the walks (not included in the tour price).
Before the rail tunnels were bored through the mountainsides and threaded through the adjacent valleys; the mountains formed a natural barrier. Kandersteg was a hamlet literally at the end of the road. Surprisingly a lot of the trade over the high passes before rail, was done in winter with heavy oxen-pulled sledges. There wasn't much work to be done on the land at that time of year and the sledges could move quite rapidly. On the other hand it was a very risky business and many were caught out on high passes in blizzards.

Matt W our tour director was phenomenal. My wife has a disability and uses a walker and wheelchair. Before every destination Matt met with us and gave a detailed accurate description of the steps and paths involved and offered suggestions on how my wife might best enjoy a site. He did so with respect and compassion. He also worked with each hotel and ensured we got appropriate accommodations for my wife's disability. Sometimes with a disability you feel excluded but Matt W went out of his way to make us feel included and we are very appreciative in having him as out TD.

It covers all the 'must sees' in Switzerland. All the places we visited we felt so welcomed by all the Swiss people. Great tour leader took great care of everyone the whole time and the skill of our driver on the winding Swiss roads enhanced the experience.

It was a great itinerary. We saw not only large cities but smaller towns through out the trip. The views were outstanding. Whether it was on the top of Matterhorn with snowy cap, Jungfrau glaciers or traveling through Bernina pass on board of the train or famous Glacial express. We loved every minute of it.
