LAVAUX WINE TASTING – APT EXCLUSIVE
On the shores of stunning Lake Geneva enjoy an exclusive
wine tasting. Sit amongst terraces that dominate the
northern edge of the lake, which have been cultivated
for wine since the Roman era. The Lavaux wine region
nowadays is synonymous with some of the finest wine
Switzerland has to offer. Bask in the same sunshine
that the sweet grapes you are tasting have enjoyed
for a millennia.
HORIZONTAL FALLS
Experience the dramatic Horizontal Falls aboard an
exhilarating high powered fast boat ride. Witness the intense
12-metre tidal currents rushing through two narrow gorges.
David Attenborough has described the phenomenon as
"one of the greatest natural wonders of the world".
GORNERGRAT RAILWAY
Surrounded by 29 mountain peaks, each over 4,000 metres
high, the century-old Gornergrat railway is more than just a
scenic railway, it is an unforgettable ride to the roof of the
world. As you board Europe's highest open-air cog railway,
anticipation of the stunning vistas ahead begins to build.
No better outlook comes than that from the viewing
platform at 3,135 metres, offering sweeping views over
Gorner Glacier, the snow-covered Monte Rosa range
and of course the impressive Matterhorn.
