Gotthard Express to Lugano – Day 12
Day 12: Today we traveled from Lucerne to Lugano on the Gotthard Panorama Express on our way to Lake Como. The total journey time for the Gotthard Panorama Express is around 5 and a half hours if you take the boat first and then transfer to the train. We weren’t planning on doing the whole journey at first, and planned to just transfer directly to the train, as we thought the whole trip may be too long. On the day of travel, however, we woke up and changed our minds. Thankfully, with… Read More

Day 11: The Burgenstock – What a gorgeous setting! This luxury resort invites guests from all over the world, excited to experience the majestic setting. With views of sparkling Lake Lucerne below and the rugged, often snow capped Swiss Alps in the distance, you will not be disappointed.

In order to reach this resort from Lucerne, you have several options. The first two are to… Read More
Lucerne – Day 10
Day 10: On day ten, we made our way from Interlaken to Lucerne. Here are a few photos we took while on the Panoramic train along the way. The landscape between these two cities is some of the prettiest, most scenic we’ve seen in all of Switzerland. I was glued to the window the whole time. Unfortunately, these photos do not do the beauty any justice! On arrival into Lucerne, we disembarked our train, and headed to our hotel on foot, as we were close enough to walk. A taxi or private… Read More
Interlaken – Day 9 Part 2
Day 9 Continued – Interlaken Part Two. After returning from our sailing adventure, we decided to explore Interlaken by foot. Here are a few photos we captured of this beautiful town. We stopped for coffee at one of our favorite places in Interlaken (we had a few). We also strolled through the town and shops, and made sure to sample a few of the chocolates and sweet shops along the way. As an aside, if you see any Laderach Chocolate shops while traveling in Switzerland, please do yourself a favor, and stop… Read More
Interlaken – Day 9
Day 9: Interlaken Exploration – While in Interlaken, we had planned to visit both Jungfraujoch and Schilthorn mountain tops. The weather was a bit too rainy and cloudy in the mountains, which meant visibility may have been poor. We opted to explore the beautiful lakes instead. Interlaken sits between Lakes Thun and Brienz. Both offer ferries that sail from village to village throughout the day. We started our day with a hot coffee and hearty breakfast at our hotel. We then chose to explore Lake Brienz (but would have been happy sailing… Read More
Lauterbrunnen – Day 8
Day 8: Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and the surrounding mountain towns. This morning we spent exploring the gorgeous mountain villages scattered throughout the Jungfrau Region. You have the option to take a private fully guided tour, which is an amazing and stress-free experience. For those who would prefer a more independent adventure, there is also an extensive transportation network including buses, trains, cable cars, funicular, etc. While you may have to transfer several times, and combine different modes of transport, it is well worth it it you have several days in this area. Just make… Read More
Victoria Jungfrau
Day 10: Interlaken in the Jungfrau Region. I wanted to share photos of our beautiful hotel. This was one of our favorite resorts to date for its relaxing atmosphere, tranquility, and unobtrusive luxury. We knew it was historical and lovely and have had clients stay here but we never knew how lovely it really was until we stayed ourselves. Not only is it a gorgeous resort in an ideal location, surrounded by nature and the Swiss Alps, but the staff goes out of their way to care for you. Enjoy the photos!… Read More
Jungfrau, Switzerland – Day 7
Day 7: On day seven, we transferred from breathtaking Zermatt to the majestic Jungfrau Region – going from one beautiful location to the other. I’ve seen photos for years, and we even visited Switzerland in 2015, but our time in this region was extremely short, as we just did a day trip. Ever since then, I’ve wanted to return and explore the area. I’m so glad we took the time to return. Today, I’ll mostly be sharing photos, as I think they speak for themselves. For our visit to the Jungfrau Region,… Read More
Zermatt, Switzerland – Days 5 and 6
We said a reluctant good-bye to Paris and headed to Zermatt, Switzerland via train. It was a long but fantastic journey. Our arrival into Zermatt was stunning, as the closer you get, the more fabulous the scenery was. We were even fortunate to get clear views of the Matterhorn, which is definitely not a guarantee. If you get a great view, make sure to capture it while you can. Moments later, it can be enshrined in clouds! Zermatt is a car free town so on arrival, you either make your own way… Read More
Paris by Night – A Seine River Dining Experience
On our last night in Paris, we did something very special. We enjoyed an exceptional dinner cruise on a unique yacht as we sailed on the Seine. Now…there are river cruises and then there are Michelin-starred Parisian Dinner Cruises. This particular dinner cruise is set on a luxurious yacht with elegant wood paneling, ornate carpeting, and private dining tables decorated with pristine, white tablecloths and napkins. The yacht is docked just opposite the Eiffel Tower, so you start and end near this brilliant historical monument. The wide windows provide excellent views to… Read More
