Forget the cookie-cutter visit to the cheese factory - this exciting experience goes way beyond what you could ever expect. One of our favorite local guides will pick you up at your amazing hotel, drive you up to the alps, to visit a typical remote cheese-making hut. Here you'll be greeted by a talented, one-of-a-kind cheese maker who will give you an inside glimpse into how he makes this Swiss specialty as delicious as it is, using only traditional methods passed down from generation to generation. Then it’s aprons on: as you give this know-how a go, and you’ll have your very own cheese sent to your door after maturation. How’s that for a souvenir? In the afternoon, our guide will take you back to your dreamy lakeside castle hotel via some of Switzerland's most scenic alpine passes... what an unforgettable day!
