Jewels of Alpine Europe
13 days | 15 days with Salzburg extension | Estimated monthly payments as low as $162
Discover Alpine wonders across five countries, from cozy villages to grand vistas.
Explore the heart of Europe, where snowcapped peaks meet lakeside charm. Stroll across Lucerne’s medieval Kapellbrucke, ride the scenic Bernina Express past glaciers and viaducts, and stand in awe beneath Mont Blanc in Chamonix. Cruise Italy’s Lake Como, flanked by grand villas and dramatic cliffs, and wander the storybook streets of Liechtenstein’s capital, Vaduz. In Innsbruck, marvel at the Golden Roof and colorful Old Town before ending in Munich, home to bustling beer halls and Baroque architecture. With every stop, you’ll uncover cultural gems and stunning alpine scenery—all wrapped in crisp mountain air and rich seasonal beauty. To follow the sound of music, take us up on the extension to Salzburg’s Baroque spires and echoes of Mozart.
