Switzerland

I LOVED this vacation. I am an avid biker; my husband is not; and we both enjoyed the levels of activity and flexibility. The vineyards and villages were amazing to see, especially by bicycle. Jean and Jean Francois took care of our every need, and the accommodations were wonderful. What's not to like?

This was our first VBT trip and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The guides were knowledgeable, positive, friendly, helpful and very professional. The GPS navigation was great. The routes were scenic, culturally diverse, and well thought out. The excursions/tours were interesting too. Recommend the ebike for the hills!

Everything about the trip was superb. I had a fantastic time on my first VBT trip. Jackie and Philippe were awesome. The views and experiences were very memorable. It made it all the better that I was able to join my wife on the trip.

Jean-Marc and Cedric were the BEST!!! They made the trip fantastic!

Great guides! Easy to use vocal GPS apps, for some of us independent riders. Beautiful country side, fairly easy riding with or without e-bikes, currently I’m a 72 year old male and enjoyed every mile. The Emerald Dawn was a pleasure to ride home to, comfy accommodation with a family feeling of as well! Good food and drink, helpful staff, very clean ship. We’re presently in the process of planning our next adventure with VBT.

Nice itinerary, historical sites, bike paths, and food. Loved this trip, but the ship is somewhat dated. Would not buy the travel arrangement through VBT though.

This tour is a new offering for Country Walkers. The itinerary offers just the right amount of hiking and other activities in the stunning surroundings of the Swiss Alps. The guides were very personable, fun and knowledgeable. The accommodations were excellent boutique hotels close to transportation hubs and attractions. The included meal were all first class.

Had a wonderful hiking trip to Switzerland, starting in Zurich and ending in Montreux—gorgeous scenery, wonderful food and wine and two of the best guides. Claire and Corinne made our trip extra special with informative, fun and well organized hiking trips over five days with pre-trip in beautiful Zurich and a final day in Montreux with its lovely setting on Lake Geneva. The hiking was varied with something new or special everyday. We loved taking the trains and gondolas punctuated by amazing hiking trails. We had a friendly and enthusiastic group, and the hikes were well planned with special events included like yodeling, cheese tasting and alphorn music, which provided interesting local culture. The accommodations were lovely with great amenities and wonderful locations. Highly recommend this tour.
