Welcome to the Grabunden
region of Switzerland, home
to some of the world's
most awe-inspiring
“skyscraper” mountain scenery

  
  Our tour begins and ends
in the beautiful city of Zurich,
which is an easy hop from
the United States		  
  Right away we leave
the city, don our
hiking boots, and get
out in gorgeous nature		  
 

One portion of the
hike from Arosa to
Davos crosses an often
cloudy mountain pass

  
  We emerge from the
clouds on the other
side of the pass		  
  And catch our first
glimpse of Davos
in the distance		  
 

There is nothing quite
so exhilarating as a
walk in the fresh
mountain air

  
  Spectacular views
surround you on
every side		  
  We visit Switzerland's
only National Park		  
 

Hike in the
National Park with
a specialist guide

  
  Reach vantage points
affording some of . . .		  
  . . . the most
picture-perfect
views on earth		  
 

Stop beside a lake
in a high mountain pass
en route to St. Moritz

  
  The view from a cable car
looking down at St. Moritz,
which is on the lake		  
  A distant view of
the cable car we've
just taken up the mountain		  
 

A grand traverse
along the mountainside
affords beautiful views . . .

  
  . . . of the Engadine
Valley . . .		  
  . . . and the
surrounding
mountains 		 
 

From St. Moritz take
the world-famous
Bernini Express train
through looping tunnels
to Tirano, Italy

(This incredible train trip is worth
the price of the tour all by itself)

  
  Enjoy lunch and a
brief guided tour
in Tirano		  
  Spend two nights in
fabulous Lugano's
Mediterranean
atmosphere 		 
 

Return to Zurich
for our Farewell
Dinner, and to enjoy . . .

  
  . . . Street Parade, one
of the most decadent
outdoor parties
in all Europe		  
  Join us for one of our
most scenic tours ever, . . .
  
 

. . . walking among the
majestic “Skyscrapers”
of Switzerland!
