With shores in Austria and Switzerland and a vast expanse of water with a mountain backdrop, Lake Constance has a holiday destination feel to it. The climate in summer is warm and lakeside towns and beaches make for an incredible setting for your tour.
In Lake Constance we recommend:
- Visiting Europe’s biggest waterfall, the Rhinefalls, in Schaffhausen Switzerland
- Relaxing on the islands of Mainau or Reichenau
- Exploring the old castle in Meersburg
- Riding the cog railway from Rorschach to Heiden
- Discovering the St Gallen Abbey district, a UNESCO World Heritage site
The Black Forest borders France’s Alsace region and you’re looking for multi-country tours then these are ideal destinations.
