Four Countries
Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein, Switzerland – four countries and 1000 impressions on one tour.
Suggested Programme
Arrival and dinner at your hotel.
Travel through the Bregenz Forest region to the capital of Vorarlberg, Bregenz, located on the shores of Lake Constance, and enjoy a city tour before travelling on to the Pfänder cable car where in just a few minutes, you will be whisked up to an altitude of 1064m above sea level.
Here you can enjoy the fantastic view while having coffee and cake in the mountain restaurant or take a relaxing walk along the deer park trail and visit the birds at the falconry.
During the day, we also recommend a „behind the scenes“ tour of the Bregenz festival house where you will see the world’s biggest lake stage and learn about the history and development of the Bregenz festival.
Take the coast road of Lake Constance to Meersburg, where you join the Ferry to the town of Konstanz. Here you can visit the unique Flower Island of Mainau, one of the main attractions of Lake Constance. Discover the park and its gardens with all their glory and enjoy the variety of this island with all your sense.
Visit the principality of Liechtenstein, where we recommend a guided round trip of this tiny principality. Also worth a visit is Werdenberg, a small medieval wooden town, and St. Gallen.
In St. Gallen you can enjoy a walk around the old town with its colourful houses from the 16th and 18th centuries, as well as the Baroque cathedral with its abbey library, the oldest library of Switzerland.
Alternatively take the Arosa train from Chur to Arosa and enjoy the wonderful mountain scenery of Switzerland.
If you want to extend your trip to a “Five Countries” tour we recommend a trip over the spectacular “Reschenpass” into Italy where you can visit Meran on the South Tyrol wine route and the wonderful gardens of Trauttmansdorf Castle.
