A Switzerland tour will take you to Zurich, the world’s capital of banking, on the Limmat River, where you’ll walk the colorful street, Augustinergass, and see carved windows of medieval merchant houses. In Lucerne, cross the covered Chapel Bridge and see the melancholic Lion Monument, or perhaps take a walk at nearby Pilatus. Visit the headquarters of the United Nations in Geneva, or the home of the International Red Cross. On the other side of Lake Geneva, Chillon Castle began as a Roman outpost and later belonged to Swiss nobility.  The mountain resort town St. Moritz beckons with its chic boutiques and cable cars.
