• self-guided walking breaks in Switzerland
• snow breaks in Switzerland, including festive breaks

We offer short breaks in Switzerland for both summer and winter. In summer, you can make the most of the fresh mountain air on a short walking break in the Swiss Alps. In winter, the Alps – all the more majestic under a thick blanket of snow – again provide the setting for our snow breaks in Switzerland, a chance to enjoy cross-country and downhill skiing, plus a wide range of other winter activities. Over the festive season, you can experience the special magic of Lucerne on our Swiss Christmas market breaks, or celebrate Christmas in the Bernese Oberland at our most popular hotel.
