You'll discover the picturesque district known as "Little Venice," with its romantic canals and cobblestone streets; the majestic, Gothic-style Saint Martin’s Church; and the remarkable Maison des Têtes, built at the beginning of the 17th century—named as such for the 111 heads decorating the outside.

Today’s excursion is aboard the “Glacier Express.” The most famous train in the world takes you on a panoramic trip through the Alps, from Andermatt to Chur. For much of its journey, the train travels on a UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Rhaetian Railway, taking you to the most jaw-dropping places in the heart of Switzerland. With unspoiled mountains rising majestically towards the sky, you'll discover the breathtakingly beautiful and idyllic scenery that only this unique and unforgettable route can offer. This excursion alone is a picture postcard of Switzerland. We'll have lunch aboard the train or at a restaurant (depending on availability). We'll return to Basel.(3)

The museum traces the history of European automobiles from 1878 to now through an exhibit of 500 historic and prestigious models. You'll discover the world's largest Bugatti collection—with two of the six famous Bugatti Royales (including the Napoleon Coupé)—as well as a large array of Rolls-Royces.
