Activity Level: 2-3 Print Factsheet Switzerland Lake Constance
There is probably no county on earth that stirs the imagination as much as Switzerland. High mountain peaks, sparkling lakes, lush green high pastures and picturesque villages, towns and cities. What a shame it is so expensive!
During our visit, we will be including three full-day excursions to Switzerland & the Black Forest. The first will take us across Lake Constance by ferry and on the scenic town of Rapperswil on the shores of Lake Zürich, where we will have a couple of hours at lunch-time. In the early afternoon, our coach brings us on a short journey to Weesen, where we board a boat on Lake Walen for an afternoon sailing under the towering peaks of the Alps. On arrival in Walenstadt, our driver awaits us for the journey back through Liechtenstein and Austria to our hotel, in good time for the evening meal.
Our second tour brings us to the spectacular “Rhine Falls”. They may not equal Niagara in size but outshine them in beauty and scenery. We travel back along the Rhine, visiting the quaint towns of Schaffhausen and Stein am Rhein, before boarding the ferry to Meersburg and back to the hotel. The other full day excursion takes us into the gorgeous Black Forest and the lakes of Titisee and Schluchsee. Here you will enjoy a beautiful town, stretching along the lakeshore, where you have an opportunity to search for that cuckoo clock you always wanted.
