Rick Steves' Europe. Switzerland's Jungfrau Region - Best of the Alps
Description
If Heidi is alive, she's in this sky-high corner of the Swiss Alps, with cows on breathtaking ridges. Take a special guided tour away from tourist-trampled routes with European travel expert, TV host, and best-selling author, Rick Steves. After settling into a traditional village where locals scythe hay by hand, we hike, bike, and parasail. We blast an alphorn, get sprayed by waterfalls raging deep inside a mountain, and munch muesli for breakfast at 10,000 feet. For a finale, we ride Europe's highest lift up the mighty Jungfrau for hot cocoa, glacier sledding, and oh-wow views.
