Why Luxury Bernese Oberland Alpine Journey

In detail

  • Days 1-2: Interlaken & Jungfraujoch

    Days 1-2: Interlaken & Jungfraujoch

    Your adventure begins in Interlaken. Here, the turquoise waters of Lakes Thun and Brienz mirror the towering Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks. Settle into your boutique hotel and take in the alpine air from your terrace before enjoying a leisurely dinner of Swiss specialties in the heart of town.

    The following day, ascend to the Jungfraujoch, the famed “Top of Europe.” From the highest railway station on the continent, gaze across the vast Aletsch Glacier and the shimmering expanse of the Alps. Return to Interlaken for a relaxed evening, dining at a lakeside restaurant as the peaks fade into twilight.

  • Days 3-4: Grindelwald, Wengen & Lauterbrunnen

    Days 3-4: Grindelwald, Wengen & Lauterbrunnen

    Continue to Grindelwald, a picture-perfect village cradled by glaciers and meadows. Spend the morning hiking through rolling pastures, surrounded by wildflowers and the sound of distant cowbells. Pause for a picnic with sweeping mountain views before returning to Interlaken for an evening of warmth and comfort.

    The next day, discover the charming town of Wengen, a car-free alpine village sat high above the Lauterbrunnen Valley. Explore a landscape shaped by waterfalls – from the misty cascades of Trümmelbach Falls to the graceful veil of Staubbach Falls – and explore meadows dotted with traditional wooden chalets. A scenic cable car descent offers panoramic views before a quiet evening in your hotel.

  • Days 5-: Lucerne & Mount Rigi

    Travel onward to Lucerne, one of Switzerland’s most scenic destinations. Stroll across the Chapel Bridge, admire the Lion Monument, and wander the cobblestone lanes of the Old Town.

    The next day, ascend to Mount Rigi, the “Queen of the Mountains.” Glide across the lake by boat before boarding the historic cogwheel railway to the summit. From here, panoramic views stretch across the Alps and beyond – a breathtaking sweep of lakes and peaks. Pause briefly for a gourmet lunch at a mountaintop restaurant before descending.

  • Days 7-8: Zermatt

    Days 7-8: Zermatt

    Your journey culminates in Zermatt, where the Matterhorn towers majestically above the gorgeous car-free village. Settle into your alpine retreat and explore boutique-lined streets and cozy cafés framed by mountain views.

    Take the Gornergrat Railway for one of Europe’s most iconic panoramas, or unwind with a spa treatment followed by an indulgent dinner overlooking the peaks.

    The next morning, enjoy a leisurely breakfast before your private transfer to the airport.
