It’s sweet when two great things combine to become even better. Such is the case with the “Best of Switzerland” package. Two of Switzerland’s top hotels have joined forces to create a four-night itinerary worthy of a pair of royals – or newlyweds! The four-night itinerary begins at Zurich at the Baur au Lac, located steps from Lake Zurich, the world-famous Bahnhofstrasse, the central Paradeplatz and the city’s bustling financial district. You will also enjoy a night at Zurich’s famed Opera.

After two nights in Zurich, travel by train to Lausanne and the Beau-Rivage Palace, located adjacent to Lake Geneva. Visit local vineyards and dine at the property’s famous two-star Michelin restaurant, Anne-Sophie Pic. Beau-Rivage Palace is situated on ten acres of private gardens with spectacular views of the Swiss Alps. The complete four-night itinerary includes:
• Two nights' accommodation at the Baur au Lac, breakfast included
• Welcome drink, chocolate from the hotel's in-house chocolatier and fruits upon arrival at the newly renovated Terrasse or the Rive Gauche Bar
• Two tickets to Zurich's Opera
• Dinner for two at the newly renovated Pavillon restaurant
• Transfers by Rolls Royce Phantom from airport to hotel and from hotel to train station
• Train tickets from Zurich to Lausanne
• Two nights' accommodation at the Beau-Rivage Palace, breakfast included
• Welcome drink upon arrival
• Dinner for two at Anne-Sophie Pic at the Beau-Rivage Palace
• Wine tasting for two at the nearby Lavaux vineyards (a UNESCO World Heritage Site)
• Transfers from train station to hotel and from hotel to airport

This offer is valid through December 31, 2012 and is prices from CHF 3,068 (about $3,369 US) per person, based on double occupancy. For more information about each property or to book your “Best of Switzerland” package, visit BaurAuLac.ch or brp.ch.
