With two weeks in Switzerland, you can experience the country's charming towns and pristine landscapes on an ultimate scenic highlights tour. Or, if you're eager to see the country with its winter coat on, choose between a festive Christmas markets itinerary and a skiing, sledding, and sightseeing adventure. Other options include an activity-packed trip through the Lake District and a hiking-focused trip that features a four-night trek in the Bernese Oberland region.

How Many Days to Spend in Switzerland

Small enough to traverse end-to-end in a few hours and with excellent public transport, Switzerland can be explored in as little as three days, specifically if you stick to one or two key regions. A five to seven-day trip will let you see a broader mix of city and countryside attractions. And with 10 or 14 days, you will be able to get properly off the beaten track if you choose. Read on for itinerary options that will show you the very best of this small country.

Opt for an itinerary that takes you on a series of hikes, like a trek to Lago di Saoseo, considered one of Switzerland's most beautiful mountain lakes
Best Time of Year to Visit Switzerland

Switzerland has two high seasons. Winter (December to March) offers some of Europe's finest Alpine snow sports. Summer (June to August) offers the best hiking opportunities and the country's liveliest festivals, such as Europe's biggest celebration of jazz, the Montreux Jazz Festival. Meanwhile, the low seasons of spring and fall let you see popular sights like the iconic Matterhorn without the huge crowds.

Hotel Reviews
Hotel Steffani
St. Moritz

A solid 4-star option in St. Moritz. The hotel is conveniently located near shopping and a grocery store. Breakfast is good and the staff is genuinely friendly. One unexpected perk — a free gym, which is rare for 4-star hotels in Switzerland. The rooms are modern and well renovated. One thing to be aware of: the building is older, and the hallways have quite a few steps up and down, so it may not be the best choice for those with accessibility needs.

Lugano

This hotel checks every box. The location is fantastic — right in the center of town with a tram stop just outside the door that takes you directly to the train station. Everything is within walking distance. The hotel itself feels brand new, and the free breakfast is outstanding. Best spread we've seen. Highly recommend.

Zurich sunset tour and Cheese Fondue
Zürich

Our tour guide Alan was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of fun facts about Switzerland. The tour included a stop at the Lindt chocolate factory followed by dinner on top of a mountain with a stunning view of Zurich. A great combination. My teenage son, who is generally hard to impress, genuinely enjoyed it — which says a lot. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Zurich.

Valentine is simply the best. She put together an incredible vacation for me and my teenage daughter on very short notice — just two months — and somehow made a magical multi-stop trip across Switzerland that met our requirements (no driving, nice hotels in walking distance to train and fun snow activities in the Alps)

As someone who listened to a meticulous planner, I was blown away by her attention to detail. Every piece of the itinerary was thoughtfully designed, organized, and easy to follow. And when the inevitable travel hiccups popped up — in our case, winter weather in Switzerland — Valentine and her team at Mobee International were proactive and completely on top of it.

What truly set her apart was the personal touch. She scheduled a video call with me and my daughter early on to hear what we were hoping to experience before planning the trip, checked in with us at multiple points along the way, suggested new opportunities we might enjoy, and made herself available on short notice whenever we needed her. We always felt supported.

I honestly can’t say enough great things about Valentine and her team at Mobee. If you’re looking for thoughtful planning, genuine care, and top-notch service, she’s the one.
