Luxury Holidays toSwitzerland

Switzerland reveals itself through its contrasts. Early mornings begin with coffee and fresh pastries beside still alpine lakes, while mountain trains climb steadily towards snow-dusted peaks and high mountain villages. In places like Grimentz, one of the Valais region’s most atmospheric ski villages, timber chalets line quiet lanes beneath dramatic alpine scenery, and winter days move between perfectly groomed pistes, long mountain lunches and evenings beside open fires. Across the country, Switzerland balances outdoor adventure with understated luxury — from the glamour of St. Moritz and Zermatt to the calm waters of Lake Lucerne and the vineyard terraces above Lake Geneva.

In summer, the rhythm shifts. Wildflower meadows replace ski slopes, panoramic hiking trails connect mountain huts and villages, and lakeside towns come alive with outdoor dining and festivals. Scenic rail journeys such as the Glacier Express and Bernina Express reveal another side of the country, crossing deep valleys, alpine passes and picture-perfect villages.
