Activity itinerary

Lucerne
  • 15m
Your private tour begins with hotel pickup anywhere in Lucerne at a time of your choice. Your local driver will meet you directly at your hotel lobby, Airbnb, or agreed meeting point. Once onboard your premium vehicle, the journey immediately turns scenic as you leave the city and head towards the heart of the Swiss Alps. From the very first kilometres, enjoy panoramic lake views and alpine landscapes as your adventure begins at a relaxed, personalised pace.
Bern
  • 3h
Explore Switzerland’s political and cultural capital, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its arcaded streets and medieval skyline. Visit the Old Town (Altstadt) — a masterpiece of Renaissance fountains, clock towers, and sandstone façades. See the Federal Palace (Bundeshaus), the seat of the Swiss government. Don’t miss the Zytglogge Clock Tower, with its moving figures dating back to 1530. Optional visit the Einstein House Museum, where Albert Einstein lived from 1903–1905 while formulating his Theory of Relativity. Climb the Bern Cathedral (Berner Münster) tower for panoramic views of the Aare River and surrounding hills. Lunch or coffee in one of the old town’s historic arcaded cafés — a Bernese tradition that blends elegance and calm.
Thun
  • 1h
Short drive south to Thun, often called the gateway to the Bernese Oberland. Explore the medieval old town, famous for its elevated wooden pavements and riverside cafés. Visit Thun Castle (Schloss Thun) for sweeping views over the lake and distant snow peaks. Walk along the Aare River promenade, where old bridges and flower-decked terraces create the perfect alpine postcard scene
Oberhofen Castle
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Continue along the panoramic road from Thun to Schloss Oberhofen, one of Switzerland’s most photogenic castles. Dating back to the 13th century, the castle rises directly from the water of Lake Thun, surrounded by gardens and snow-capped peaks. Ideal short stop for photos by the lake or a quick drink at the lakeside terrace.
