A combination of Italy, France and Germany! Start your day by visiting the finest churches this country offers, like the Cathedrals in Lausanne and Bern, and end your day in one of the top nightclubs or restaurants. One day you can just drink beer and eat sausages, while the next day you will enjoy a lovely pasta with a glass of Merlot. Don't forget the Swiss chocolate with unexpected flavors, because you will not find any better!
