Switzerland: Europe's Crown Jewel tour: Pre- and Post- Day recommendations

HuntNfun

My husband and I are scheduled to go on this tour in mid-June. We are going to have a day and a half before the tour begins and two days at the end of the tour. What are some recommendations of things to see and do from those of you who have arrive early and/or extended your time at the end of the tour ? TIA.

I have not taken this tour but have spent time in most of the same cities on this tour. Lucerne is an easily walkable town. I love viewing the Lion Monument. The local mountain areas are easily accessible. If you enjoy museums consider taking an easy day trip by train to Basel, known as the cultural center of Switzerland. Or return to Bern, the legislative center. You could even train to Paris! Enjoy your tour.

I wrote a lengthy review of our Aug/Sep 2021 tour that might give you some ideas. It should still be in the older threads for this tour. We enjoyed Lausanne.

We had an amazing day with Swiss Riviera Wine Tours the day before the tour. https://swissrivierawinetours.com

Claudia, how do I find your lengthy review off our Aug/Sept 2021 tour?

Here's a link to it. It's titled 28 Aug - Classic tour review

In general to find an old thread, go to the category list on the right and search thru the subcategories. Sometimes it's in the top level category like "Switzerland" or a subcategory like the specific tour title. If you know who started the thread and the date, use the Started By column to search thru.

Let me know if I can answer anything else.

We are leaving the US on June 17 for the June 19 tour. Are you on that one?

HuntNfun

No, we are on the June 13 tour. Are you flying through LHR? If so, are you getting an Electronic Travel Authorization?
