What you can expect

The enchanting world of the Bernese Highlands is waiting for you to explore on this scenic ride across the Alps. Your journey takes you to charming mountain villages, forested slopes, and snowy peaks, surrounding you with some of the most spectacular vistas in Europe.

Your excursion starts with a comfortable coach ride that takes you south from Zurich to Interlaken, where you can enjoy a short coffee break. The drive continues to Lauterbrunnen, a village surrounded by sheer valley cliffs and towering, misty waterfalls that create a truly fantastical setting. From here, take the Wengernalp cog railway for a ride through alpine meadows and forests to the little hillside village of Wengen and then ascend to the pass of Kleine Scheidegg at the foot of the imposing north face of the Eiger.

Enjoy some time at leisure in the afternoon to relax, do some hiking and admire the views of the Eiger Glacier and towering mountain ridges like the Jungfrau and the Mönch before the time comes to start your trip back down. Meet your tour guide at the forested resort town of Grindelwald for the coach ride back to Zurich.
