Traveller Story: Sandra & Graham's Amazing Festive Holiday

I saw a post on a Facebook page of someone holidaying in the snow. I asked them where they were. Reply was on a White Xmas Tour. What a bucket list experience that would be I thought. I had always wanted to go to Switzerland since my son lived there for 3 years. I immediately googled “White Xmas Tour” and up came Albatross Tours. I check the following day with a travel agent regarding the tour company. Excellent company one of the best was the reply. Two days later I rang Albatross Tours and preregistered for the “Swiss Christmas in Zermatt” 2019.

No. I have booked my next tour with Albatross Tours “The Italian Grande”

 

 

 

 

There were many that stood out for me Fuschl, Hallstatt & Innsbruck in Austria.  Appenzell & of course Zermatt in Switzerland which was the highlight of my tour.  Loved Fuschl on the lake where we walked after dinner as well as through the village. Hallstatt the scenery was just breathtaking would love to go back one day. Innsbruck the Christmas markets were a treat. Appenzell what a wonderful little village let us not forget the horse drawn carriage ride through the countryside. The hotels we stayed in were spotlessly clean and so comfortable with lots of character.

 

 

 

 

The Glacier Express train ride through the snow covered alps of Switzerland.

 

 

 

Would have to be the 4 days in Zermatt where in snowed for 3 days and after all that was what the holiday was all about a White Xmas in Zermatt. It was a Memorable Magical time.

 

 

 

All the meals top notch. We particularly enjoyed the variety of fresh bread and especially the local Appenzell cheese. Always fresh produce.

  

If it is on your bucket list just do it. You won’t regret it I promise. Don’t forget to preregister otherwise you will be disappointed.

 

 

 

Most definitely the tours travel at a good pace not at all rushed as you stay in places longer than a day most times several days much more relaxing. Our tour was an Amazing Experience.
