Editor’s Take
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.
Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
Switzerland is a very outdoor travel focused country - with suitable activities and tour types for multiple age groups. From luxury ski lodges to intense hiking in the Alps, the mountain scenery is the star in Switzerland reviews - sometimes making up for other parts of the tour that may not have gone according to plan.
Given that many Switzerland tours feature a lot of time outside in winter and summer, be prepared for some time among the elements.
If your Switzerland tour is included on a wider Europe trip, it’s also a good idea to be mentally prepared for some long bus rides. Some negative reviews for Switzerland comment on too much time going from place to place, and not enough time exploring.
