Imagine Experiencing Swisstainable!

Switzerland has been listed as Number One in "environmental sustainability" in the Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report, which makes it the global leader in this field. Switzerland branded its sustainable program as "Swisstainable" – Sustainability Swiss Made. Switzerland is differentiating itself as a preferred travel destination through its passion for practising sustainability. Kuoni Tumlare cooperating with Switzerland Tourism is making Swisstainable tangible and providing this travel experience to travellers globally.

These tour products bring a refreshing travel journey to those who want to explore, experience, and learn about Swisstainable and its sustainable elements while touring in Switzerland.

Swisstainable Tour Products

In our Swisstainable-themed tour products, we incorporate learnings of how the Swiss have made Swisstainable as part of their lives through a mindful mode of mobility, clean waterways, nature conservation, pristine air quality, food produce and recycling. The selection of transport modes, lodging, restaurants, and places of visit are carefully curated, as best we could, to allow visitors to experience it.

1. Small Group Tours by Train

Switzerland has one of the most robust train systems covering about 3,000km long SBB network. The operations of buses and cruises are timed precisely with the train schedule to ensure a seamless transition from one transport mode to the next for a smooth journey. These fully electrified trains are 90% supported by hydropower. It is a great way to see the country while keeping the carbon footprint low.

2. Small Group Tours by Bike

For biking enthusiasts and casual cyclists,  Switzerland provides excellent biking tracks with bike rentals and services to ensure a top-class biking experience. Many scenic biking tracks have various difficulty levels to meet everyone's challenges and fitness. Tours by bike will be an unforgettable experience of Human Powered Mobility in a splendid natural environment.

3. Green Incentive Tours

"Green" is in the Swiss DNA. Forest covers 30% of Switzerland, and it is still growing. By hiking in Switzerland, with an astounding 65,000 km of hiking trails, you can enjoy nature up-close to experience the vast forest area, crystal-clear water, and national nature parks. There are also many outdoor team-building activities for inclusion in the incentive trip. Many restaurants also offer food produced and sourced locally to reduce carbon footprint.

4. Green Educational Tours

Switzerland has made significant efforts to pursue its sustainable goals and aims to be Number One. They are the world champion in recycling, as they recycle most of their glass, aluminium, steel, and paper. They renew an impressive 60% of all energy and harness energy from unique natural sources such as solar power on the glacier and drawing heat from an icy lake. It will be an eye-opening trip to learn about Swisstainable innovation and provide food for thought to nurture a culture of sustainability.
