Carbon Neutral Trip
Day by Day
No two trips are ever the same, but this will give you a taste of what your journey will be like.
Day 1
Meet your B&R Guides on the terrace of the Trois Couronnes Hotel for cocktails this evening. Later, indulge in your hotel's gourmet restaurant.
Day 2
Hop on your e-bikes for a stunning ride towards the UNESCO-honoured Lavaux vineyards. Stop for lunch at a private winery before heading into town for our first night at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Dine and dance the night away, enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour and VIP access to the artist's bar, the best category seats in the house, and more.
Day 3
Pedal along the Rhone River this morning, stopping in Aigle for lunch. Visit the castle of Chillon, keeping a lookout for the ghost of Lord Byron. Tonight, enjoy a night at the Jazz Festival on your own. Tickets will be available as soon as the acts are announced in November.
Day 4
Visit Gruyères, a beautifully preserved village famous for its cheese. Cross Switzerland’s language borders for lunch before pedalling back on to our chic new hotel for cocktails with our local friend.
Day 5
Take the winding train through the Simmental Valley, then a gondola to a ridge to begin today’s easygoing hike. After lunch, drive up to the Col du Pillon and head up another gondola for panoramic views of the Tsanfleuron Glacier. Back in Gstaad, learn about alpine cheeses in a local cheese-aging cellar with a truly passionate cheesemonger over apéritifs.
Day 6
Pedal through the farm-dotted Emmental region, one of Switzerland's best cycling spots, before stopping for lunch beside the Aare River. Continue to the marvellous city of Bern to enjoy the rest of the day at leisure.
Day 7
Cycle along the Aare River, reaching the beautifully preserved town of Murten for lunch by the lake. Join a special tour of the Zytglogge this evening before indulging in cocktails and a celebratory final dinner.
Day 8
After breakfast, we’ll arrange a taxi to bring you to the Bern train station for onward travels.

Why choose a Small Group trip?

An Effortless Journey
Our expert Experience Designers are perfectionists, using first-hand knowledge of routes, restaurants and hotels to create an unforgettable experience. This means all the planning is taken care of for you. All you need to do is enjoy.

Active Exploration
From emerging destinations to iconic sights, B&R trips show you the world in a new way on our expertly developed cycling, walking and hiking routes. Travelling through historic villages and romantic vineyards and up to striking viewpoints, our routes offer a variety of challenges for every activity level.

Friends for Life
Your fellow travellers are as passionate and curious about the world as you are, which means the conversations and laughs will be as free flowing as your drink of choice. Don't be surprised if your group starts planning a reunion before the trip is done.

Room for Surprises
We love a plan, but we adore a spontaneous moment even more. Whether it’s an impromptu al fresco meal or a moon-lit musical performance, our advice is to expect the unexpected.
