Switzerland

Switzerland’s breathtaking beauty is just one of the reasons why the tourist hordes flock to the Alps, the Swiss plateau or the Jura mountains. Can anyone miss those creamy chocolates, cheese and cuckoo clocks, which are sought worldwide!  

While the historic city of Bern is the national capital, Zurich is a major financial hub and the largest city in Switzerland. At Bern, you’ll love to stroll down the cobbled streets and glance through the beautifully restored medieval structures. Savor delicious cuisine at the restaurants, slip into the bars and cafes and immerse yourself into the glitzy nightlife. There are specialty shops, boutiques and stores where you can let loose the shopping bug!

Geneva, nestled between the Jura range and the Alps, is the famed home of the United Nations Headquarters and is worth a trip, especially for the numerous museums, art galleries, cathedrals and botanical gardens. Finally, if you’re an outdoorsy traveler, you must be dying to be in Zurich! The Limmat River and Lake Zurich is not only the reason for the city’s immaculate beauty, but also provides the perfect setting for engaging activities such as hiking, canoing, windsurfing, rafting, water skiing and mountaineering.
