Five Star Zermatt

Six nights in one of Zermatt's world class hotels. Apart from luxurious rooms, mattresses made for princesses, king size bath tubs and first class service their spas and body treatments will come as welcome relief at the end of a hard day’s walk.

Five Star Tours tend to be a bit less strenuous than Mountain Hut Tours as we return to Zermatt every afternoon. Following an early breakfast we depart for a long walk. We can carry a picnic lunch or I can arrange for a picnic hamper to be delivered to a secluded spot where we can enjoy the luxury of a picnic lunch or tea. You will be back in your hotel by mid to late afternoon to luxuriate in the spa and wash away any aches and pains before dinner. The mountain air and exercise will burn off the calories so you can enjoy all the fondue, raclette, assiette Valaisianne and other Swiss delicacies without fear of adverse consequences.

There is a great selection of restaurants in Zermatt offering a tremendous diversity of fare so you can titillate your palate with a different treat every night.

Half board (which includes dinner) is an optional extra and is generally good value. Depending on which hotel you stay in this may include a ‘dine around’ feature allowing you to dine at other hotels and restaurants that participate in the deal.

And to introduce an added element of variety we can arrange for two of the six nights to be spent at a luxury five star hotel perched high above Zermatt at 2,222m.
