See Switzerland like never before for only 770Fr a week (all incl.)
How it works You travel by train through Switzerland during 7 days. And we promise you will love it! Our aim is to show you the huge variety that our little country offers. You see historic and dynamic towns, stunning landscapes and mountains, beautiful lakes and much more. We travel through all areas: North-, South-, East-, West- and Centralswitzerland so that you see the 4 different language areas and its slightly different cultures. The whole tour is guided (from about 9 in the morning till late – also the nightlife if you wish) and you get many facts and stories about the places we visit and in general. If you once want to sleep longer or skip sth – no problem, join us with the next train. We lodge basically in youth hostels (dormitory) but if you like we can upgrade you to a single/double room or a hotel. We are generally very open to your personal needs and wishes – just let us know. If you discover a spot you really like on the trip, you can go back there afterwards for some days – we are glad to find you a hostel.
Tour itinerary (the itinerary might slightly change depending on hostel availability and train possibility but the main points will remain – towns with guided tour and spare time, you will see many other sights from the train which aren't on the list below!) Day 1: Zurich (departing point) – Baden – Berne (capital) – Thun – Saanen Day 2: Saanen (GoldenPassLine) – Montreux – Riviera (winedegustation) – Lausanne – Geneva Day 3: Geneva – Fiesch (Aletschglacier) – Zermatt – Fiesch Day 4: Fiesch – Locarno (Lago Maggiore) – Andermatt (GlacierExpressLine) – Chur Day 5: Chur – St.Gallen – SteinamRhein – Schaffhausen (Rheinfall – biggest waterfall in Europe) Day 6: Schaffhausen – Luzern (ship cruise, mountain hiking nearby) Day 7: Luzern – Zurich
About us and more information We (21 and 22) are passionate travelers ourselves, so we know whats important for a good trip. At the moment we are backpacking Australia and South America. We know Switzerland by heart and we really want to show you something! Cheaper as with us you can't travel through Switzerland although you pay us a 180Fr fee (guidance, organisation, expenses). For that you won't only get passionate guides but you profit from group discounts and “connection discount”. If your budget is small don't waste money on expensive food. For dinner we can cook ourselves in the hostel and for lunch you get something from a supermarket (breakfast is included in accommodation). Here we give you an overview about the whole costs: -tour fee: 180Fr. - train: 185Fr (Europeans under 26) – 300Fr (non-Europeans over 26) -hostels: ca. 160Fr -food/drinks (self-cooking/supermarkets): ca 140Fr -sights: not more than 100Fr. Total: ca 770Fr (475Euro, 316GBP, 617US-Dollar,780AUD, 885NZD)
Are you interested or do you have a questions? Write an email: kevinkienast@hotmail.com (please tell us name, age, possible travel dates, personal wishes concerning sights and accommodation) As soon as there are enough people (at least 12) to run a tour we send you the trip details – then you can decide definitively and book and we will see you soon! Anyway we will send you an email till the 1 May in case there are not enough people so you still have enough time to find something else.
