Switzerland

A cruise to Switzerland will take you to a country that is as interesting as the chocolate and cheese it produces, as clean and efficient as a Swiss watch, and as nice and hospitable as its people. A cruise allows you to see the best of Switzerland, from the Black Forest to Lorelei Rock. The Swiss Alps are the source of many of Europe's most beautiful rivers, including the Rhine; many of our river cruises in Germany, France, and the Netherlands begin and end in Switzerland. Zurich, Switzerland's picturesque capital, is best visited on foot. There, you can see the Grossmunster, St. Peter's Church, the Old Town, the Town Hall, and the Fraumunster, which offers a panoramic perspective of the city. In Lucerne, it's easy to find classic souvenirs, and a walk through the cobblestone streets of old Basel will take you back in time.
