Unlike standard tours, this experience blends the exclusivity of a private coach and chauffeur with a First Class train journey through Switzerland’s most iconic alpine landscapes. Your day begins in Zurich, traveling in comfort to Lucerne for a guided tour of its charming Old Town, filled with frescoed buildings, lakeside views and medieval bridges. Aboard your private coach, you then continue to Andermatt, where a Traditional Swiss Fondue lunch awaits. From here, board the First Class train for the most scenic stretch of this alpine route. Enjoy sweeping views as you cross the Oberalp Pass, admire the historic monastery of Disentis, and glide through the dramatic Rhine Gorge, known as the Swiss Grand Canyon. Your rail journey ends in Chur, where your private chauffeur and coach awaits to return you to Zurich in complete comfort. This curated experience offers luxury, storytelling, and Switzerland’s most memorable landscapes.

This segment of the tour additionally offers the chance to encounter famed heritage sites, including the Kapellbrücke (Chapel Bridge) — the world’s oldest surviving bridge, and the Lion Monument — an intricate 19th-century rock carving commemorating the Swiss Guards that lost their lives during the French Revolution in 1792.
At your next stop, depart your private coach at Andermatt, a traditional Swiss village in the heart of the Ursen Valley, and get ready to explore the village.
