Switzerland: Where the Alps Meet Absolute Privacy
At 4,478 metres, the Matterhorn casts its shadow over a country where discretion is not a courtesy — it is a way of life. Switzerland has long been the refuge of choice for those who require both extraordinary beauty and complete confidentiality. From the frozen silence of a private glacier to the warm glow of a Verbier chalet lit against winter darkness, every moment here is precisely calibrated. Private Travel Club brings you Switzerland on your terms: no crowded lifts, no shared itineraries, no compromise.

What to See and Do in Switzerland
Heli-Skiing the Verbier Backcountry
Verbier's ski domain is extraordinary by any measure, but the true experience begins where the lifts end. A private helicopter lifts you above the resort crowds and sets you down on untouched couloirs and open glaciers accessible only from the air. Your dedicated guide — a seasoned mountain professional with intimate knowledge of the terrain — leads you through descents that few will ever witness, let alone ski. After the final run, a private fondue awaits in a mountain refuge booked exclusively for your party. No shared groups, no scheduled departures. Just the mountain, the silence, and the snow.

Private Lake Geneva Sailing and Wine Tour
Lake Geneva stretches between the Vaud vineyards and the French Alps in a panorama that has inspired painters and poets for centuries. Private Travel Club arranges an exclusive sailing charter on the lake — a classic wooden vessel or a sleek modern yacht, crewed and provisioned to your preferences. The itinerary winds along the UNESCO-listed Lavaux terraced vineyards, with private stops at celebrated estates in Epesses and Dezaley for cellar tastings with the winemakers themselves. Lunch is served on deck as the Alps reflect in the water below. An afternoon as unhurried and refined as the wine.

Exclusive Access to St. Moritz's Frozen Polo
Each winter, the frozen surface of Lake St. Moritz becomes the world's most improbable polo ground for the Snow Polo World Cup — a spectacle of horses, luxury, and spectacle that has defined the Engadin valley's social calendar for decades. Private Travel Club secures private hospitality suites with unobstructed views of the field, arranges VIP introductions to players and organizers, and coordinates your transport by private helicopter from Zurich or Geneva. After the match, an exclusive dinner reservation at one of St. Moritz's legendary establishments completes an afternoon that exists nowhere else on earth.

Private Glacier Hike on the Aletsch
The Aletsch Glacier — the largest in the Alps at 23 kilometres long — moves imperceptibly through a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of extraordinary power. A private guided expedition takes you onto the ice itself, equipped and accompanied by a certified glaciologist who brings the geology alive in a way no group tour ever could. The route is tailored to your fitness level, from a gentle walk along the medial moraines to a full-day traverse of the upper ice fields. An overnight stay at a privately booked mountain hut, with dinner and breakfast included, transforms this into an immersive encounter with one of Europe's last great wildernesses.

A Private Train Journey on the Glacier Express
The Glacier Express connects Zermatt and St. Moritz across 291 bridges and through 91 tunnels — a journey that condenses the entire drama of the Swiss Alps into eight hours of moving landscape. Private Travel Club arranges the exclusive use of a private panoramic carriage, styled with white-tablecloth dining and a personally curated menu prepared by an onboard chef. Champagne is poured as the train crosses the Landwasser Viaduct; a sommelier presents regional wines from the Valais as the Oberalp Pass slides past the windows. This is not transport — it is the finest moving dining room in Europe.

Valais & Zermatt
The Valais is Switzerland distilled to its essence: steep vineyards yielding some of the country's finest Fendant and Cornalin, ancient thermal baths at Leukerbad, and, at its dramatic southern tip, Zermatt — the car-free resort town that exists entirely in the shadow of the Matterhorn. The skiing is world-class, the chalets are extraordinary, and the village retains a restraint that money alone cannot manufacture. Private Travel Club places you in properties with direct ski access and arranges everything from private mountain guides to helicopter arrivals.

Engadin Valley & St. Moritz
At 1,800 metres altitude, the Engadin valley enjoys over 320 days of sunshine a year — a fact that drew European nobility here in the nineteenth century and has never stopped drawing discerning travellers since. St. Moritz is the valley's crown jewel: a resort of legendary hotels, private clubs, and a social calendar that runs from Polo on the frozen lake in January to hiking on the Diavolezza glacier in July. The surrounding villages of Pontresina, Sils Maria, and Silvaplana offer quieter chalet stays with the same extraordinary landscape.

Lake Geneva & Vaud Riviera
The northern shore of Lake Geneva — known as the Swiss Riviera — combines the sophistication of Lausanne and Montreux with the serene beauty of the Lavaux wine terraces cascading down to the water's edge. Grand hotels and private lakeside villas command views of the French Alps across the water, while the Vaud countryside offers truffle hunting, private wine estate visits, and the quiet pleasures of towns that have refined the art of the good life for centuries. In summer, the lake is alive with sailing; in winter, the spas and restaurants come into their own.
