Lakes & Mountain Tours

Explore

In a few months, you could be breathing fresh mountain air (the views aren't half bad either) on a lakes and mountains holiday.

Sure, Europe has some pretty amazing cities, but the wide open spaces between are home to some of the most gorgeous scenery on the planet. On a Riviera tour, you'll witness awe-inspiring scenery, taste authentic local cuisine, explore the iconic sights - discover a few known only to the locals, and experience activities on land and water. From the cobbled streets and local eateries around the Italian Lakes to the storybook mountains above Lake Bled (just one of Slovenia's many beauty spots) - and this is just some of what you can explore on a Riviera Tour; there's so much more!

Further afield, you could take a drive into the stunning foothills of the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, where the countryside evolves from saffron-coloured fields to steeper, wooded slopes slashed by dramatic, river-filled gorges, to Canada's Rocky Mountains. Here, you can marvel at magnificent peaks lofting over snowy lands and never-ending forests, home to moose, beaver, elk and bears, as you travel on the Rocky Mountaineer, on one of the world's most incredible rail journeys.

And to top it all off, expert Tour Managers will be on hand to guide you on these truly unforgettable experiences. And, with your entire trip planned for you (and the choice to go off on your own), we can’t imagine why you would miss out on one of these stunning holidays!
