From the high alpine splendor of St. Moritz, Switzerland, to the Italian Lakes tucked into Italy’s Lombardy region — fall in love with two naturally beautiful, culturally distinct countries on this scenic eight-night journey. Spend four nights in St. Moritz, the mountain resort town loved by royals, celebrities and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Set out by train to see the colorful Swiss town of Zuoz and feast on traditional fondue in a chalet. Board the Bernina Express and gaze at dramatic vistas as you ride from snowy peaks to temperate Tirano in hours! Pass little Swiss villages on a drive to Tremezzo. Launch your lakes adventure in elegant Stresa and see Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” in Milan. Stroll through palace gardens in the Borromean Islands and learn cooking secrets from an Italian chef. This engaging program includes first-class accommodations and an extensive meal plan including wine with dinner.

Activity Level Detail: Moderate


During excursions, there is moderate walking (at least 1½ - 2 hours) on cobblestones, uneven pavement, stairs and hills. Travelers are required to board boats, while stepping on uneven planks and steep steps. Good balance is a plus while on excursion boats. This program is not recommended for those confined to a wheelchair. For all excursions and transfers, where coaches are involved, travelers are also required to board a coach with three to six steep steps.
