New itineraries

France & Switzerland — This eight-day sample itinerary sees clients fly into Geneva and drive to the lakeside town of Annecy to take a tour with an expert guide, taste cheeses from a celebrated local cheesemonger and explore the hills of Le Semnoz. In Chamonix, clients explore the Aiguille du Midi with a private guide learning the history of alpine adventuring while enjoying up-close views of Mont Blanc. A journey on the cog train to the ice cave at Mer de Glace is recommended. The itinerary ends in Montreux, Switzerland on the shores of Lake Geneva, with a guided tour of Lavaux to sample the region’s wines and enjoy a fondue lunch with amazing lake views.

Alex Bentley, Head of Product for 糖心vlog传媒 said: "As clients return to travel we know they are keen to explore away from the busy tourist spots. Our new lakes and mountains collection is perfect for this, with clear alpine air and beautiful lakes to enjoy. As with all of Audley’s trips, the ideal itinerary for the client is designed just for them based on their budget, tastes and wish-list and could feature the lakes and mountains of one destination or they could feature as an element of a longer country- or continent-wide trip."
