Genuinely romantic itinerary, the kind where every other day has a proper viewpoint moment for two. Interlaken's town centre felt a bit crowded with tour groups but the surrounding scenery more than compensates.
My husband and I have done a few Europe trips together but this one, across Bern, Lucerne, Interlaken, Montreux and Zurich, felt the most special. The Lake Lucerne cruise at sunset alone was worth the whole trip.
This trip reset something for us as a couple, away from routine and phones for a while. Jungfraujoch and the Lake Lucerne cruise were the two standout memories we keep coming back to.
Sights themselves were all we hoped for, Kleine Scheidegg especially, but the transfer day between Montreux and Zurich turned into a much longer journey than we expected with a delay thrown in. Everything else about the trip ran smoothly though.
Lovely trip for couples, well thought out with a good mix of adventure and quiet moments. Jungfraujoch does get crowded by late morning so we wish we'd gone up earlier.
Dreamy couple's trip through the Alps, pricey but worth it for the memories.
