The experience

You start in your Geneva hotel lobby, where your driver-guide picks you up for the full day. The panoramic van climbs through Les Diablerets, a mountain village of wood chalets, as your guide shares stories about the region. The route winds toward Col du Pillon, where you board a 15-minute cable car that carries you to Glacier 3000: a working glacier at 3,000 meters with views across more than 200 Alpine peaks over 2,000 meters high.

At the glacier, the Peak Walk is the centerpiece: a suspension bridge that spans between two mountain peaks and is the only one of its kind in the world. You walk across it at altitude, surrounded by the scale of the Alps. Beyond the bridge, the glacier has a fun park with snow activities and a chairlift, so you can spend time on the ice itself rather than just viewing it from a distance. How long you spend here is yours to set within the day's schedule.

On the return to Geneva, the van stops in Montreux, a lakeside town on the Swiss Riviera where you can step out, photograph Lake Geneva, and soak in the mild climate and artistic character the town is known for. You're back at your hotel after a full day that covers three distinct landscapes (mountain village, high glacier, and lakeside resort) without managing any of the logistics yourself.
