Sightseeing

Switzerland’s Most Beautiful Places and Hidden Treasures

Few countries offer diversity to match Switzerland’s. We invite you to explore its highlights: the city of Zurich; the peaks around Gstaad, Zermatt, and St. Moritz; the lakes and mountains of Interlaken, Montreux, Lucerne, and Lugano; and the remote valleys of the Jura and Graubünden. It would be our pleasure to guide you to them.

True to the Outdoor Butler philosophy, we add small moments to savour along the way — regional specialities, local cheeses, roasted chestnuts, fresh breads to carry the day in the memory as much as the eye.

The Magic of Schilthorn

Where James Bond Meets Alpine Wonder!

Schilthorn shot to global fame in 1967 as the legendary setting for the James Bond classic On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Decades later, that thrilling 007 aura is as alive as ever—but this iconic peak offers so much more than movie history.

Prepare to be breathless as you take in the spectacular, panoramic views of the Swiss Alps. Your unforgettable journey begins with a scenic ride through the stunning Lauterbrunnen Valley, famous for its dramatic, cascading waterfalls. Once at the summit, you can dine in style at our world-renowned revolving restaurant. If you are lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the majestic “Bartgeier”, a vulture soaring past the peak.

Our journey begins with a scenic 25-minute train ride into the heart of the Swiss Alps, heading towards the legendary Lauterbrunnen Valley.
