Tour de Suisse… for Swimmers!

Chocolate, watches, cheese… we’ve got all that! But do you know what else we have in Switzerland? Absolutely stunning, pristine and crystal clear lakes and rivers with water so clean you can drink from them. Seriously. Cleanliness is another Swiss trademark, and it most certainly includes its multitude of insanely gorgeous lakes and rivers.

So come and dive in! Experience Switzerland from this unique angle. Our tours will take you through all three major language regions (German, Italian, French) and you won’t miss one day of practice!

The swims can accommodate intermediate and advanced swimmers and will be held every morning in a new, stunning location. We will visit the three major language regions of Switzerland (German, Italian and French) and stay in some of the most scenic spots in the country.

After a refreshing morning swim, there will be tons of great opportunities for people to see other amazing sites of this gorgeous country. For example, guided city tours, whitewater rafting, ice climbing, cycling, mountain biking, hiking or golf could easily be arranged. Those seeking a bit more adrenaline could go skydiving, paragliding, bungee jumping or canyoning.

In the evening, participants will be pampered with great food of the region, fantastic wine (alcohol not included in package price) and deserts that help make Switzerland famous.

Hotel accommodations are included in the package price and will be characteristic hotels in each region. Day treks with an overnight stay in a mountain hut can also be arranged, if desired.

All transportation is also included, and will be through some of the most scenic routes in the world.

You should be getting it in your mailboxes at home soon but in case you can’t wait, the e-version is now available.

Unless you like paying late fees…get your registration in today!
