Flowers of the Alps Tour

A beautiful, relaxing holiday in Europe's most spectacular scenery;designed to delight both gardeners and non gardeners; With superb gardens, abundant wildflowers, plus lots of major sights to interest all; in some of the more "Off the Beaten Tourist Trail" areas of Italy, France, Austria & Switzerland. There are very beautiful and varied gardens to see, plus a host of wildflowers. We have timed the holiday to catch the splendours of the Alpine Wildflowers in full bloom. A wide variety of things to see and do covering so many interests, something different on the itinerary every day, are real hallmarks of this holiday. It is definitely not all gardens and definitely not all mountains.There is so much to see and do, and such a variety in such a small geographical area, that we can go at a very leisurely pace, without long days on the bus. We make lots of stops each day.Our finish time each afternoon gets you back to the Hotel with plenty of time to relax or explore before dinner. There are several ½ days. We make a base for several nights at each stop & do day trips out. David & Merryle have hand picked and inspected the Hotels to give us the very best available accommodation in the very best locations at each stay, all with comfortable spacious rooms and en-suite facilities. We have included in the holiday some truly memorable culinary experiences, some of our popular picnics of fresh local produce The itinerary offers you plenty of flexibility to break away from the group and explore in your own time and follow your own interests.
