Switzerland and Austria combined — three nights based in Bern at the foot of the Alps, then four nights in Innsbruck with day trips to Lucerne and Salzburg. The Golden Pass Panoramic Train connects the regions in one spectacular rail journey. Innsbruck sits in a bowl surrounded by mountains rising directly from the city. Salzburg — Mozart's birthplace — is one of the best-preserved Baroque cities in Europe. Optional Vienna extension adds three nights. Home pick-up and airfare included.

Bern is one of Europe's most underrated capitals — a medieval old town on a rocky peninsula above the Aare River. Innsbruck rewards slow exploration: the Golden Roof, the Hofburg Palace, and a cable car that rises from the city center to 7,000 feet in 20 minutes. Salzburg needs a full day minimum.
