Twincruiser Tours offers guided and self-guided tours with motorcycles in Switzerland and the Alps. 
You enjoy a worry- and stress-free motorcycle holiday where no-one must prove anything to anyone. 

Switzerland is small on the world map, but it will probably take you a lifetime to discover it all. I did not make the roads winding through the enchanting landscape, but I did spend countless hours finding and assessing the roads that I offer in my itineraries. As local and experienced guide I will make you discover Switzerland’s most scenic drives along open roads on two wheels! With me you will discover thoroughly some of the beauties of that alpine country and find a multitude of unique characteristics and details!
Have a look and get inspired at my standard tours and the picture gallery. Don’t underestimate Switzerland, there is a multitude of tours with various possibilities; depending on your interests and available time, I design you very personal tour with a hired motorcycle.
Let me introduce you into the “real Swiss life” with a ride along epic itineraries, through spectacular landscapes and meandering mountain passes. Switzerland’s excellent roads offer unique conditions to be discovered consciously on a motorcycle. 

My holiday, my time, my motorcycle tour

See Switzerland your way on a motorcycle.
Do you know that feeling, you’re in group of people and each one wants something else. That was the main reason why I no longer offer tours for bikers that do not know each other. My tours are tailored to your interests and just for you and your friends.
Find out more with your Twincruiser Tours guide! It is the perfect way to discover and enjoy more of Switzerland. You have the freedom to choose what you want and I have more room for flexibility and individuality.
You don’t have to worry about languages, creating the best itinerary with enough time to enjoy in an unknown country, getting information about traffic rules, customs with their entry and exit requirements, local laws, health conditions, booking adequate accommodations, tickets and finding a good restaurant with local specialties.
How long is your holiday? How much time do you want to invest in your motorcycling in Switzerland?

The motorcycling season in Switzerland is short; it starts in June and ends in September.
If  you want to be on the safe side, especially if you come from Australia or the USA, plan it from the third week in June until mid-September. Anything else is taking chances, where you will lose money, trust me!
Twincruiser Tours organizes the complete trip with all its details and is here to support you while you enjoy your motorcycle tour.  

Touring Switzerland on a motorcycle: Authentic itineraries on open roads along magnificent scenery with your English speaking Swiss tour guide 

“Switzerland is small! How long should I stay in Switzerland?”
Granted, Switzerland is small if you look at it on a world map in terms of area. What make it different, is the immense diversity. Within a tiny distance between various regions, you discover completely different and unique particularities.

Therefore, you are very much mistaken, if you think that a few days are sufficient to explore the whole of Switzerland. As with every holiday, it depends on your interests, on what you like to do, to see, to understand and to experience. Is your aim to rush straight through to some point of interests? To quickly shoot a picture with your mobile and to put in into the social media, so that you can say, I was there? And finally to tick an item off your bucket-list?
Or do you rather want to see inside, with a local, meet genuine people, try authentic things and be part, even if it just for a while, be part of Switzerland.
To what do you compare Switzerland?
Most important is its particularities and how “deep” you want to discover the Swiss Alps, Switzerland, and the Swiss people.
Swiss alpine roads are often very narrow single lane strips with technical switchbacks, challenging bends and hairpin turns. Some sections are not for the faint-earthed as there are no guardrails between the vertical drop at the edge of the road and you with your vehicle.

Which type are you? A touring-motorcyclist, a photographer, a nature lover, a foodie, a culture vulture, a thrill seeker, a pioneer, a soul searcher, or something else? With Twincruiser Tours your motorcycle holiday is tailored to your personal ideas, preferences, and taste.

Switzerland is packed with details. There is plenty to discover, to learn about, to understand and to appreciate; and all that happens within a few short miles; Swiss people are divided in four different languages in three regions (The Jura, the central plateau, and the Alps). Our caring and experienced tour-guide will get you at your own pace without wasting time, to the point. You received valuable information and tips that you would struggle to find in any book or spent many hours on the World Wide Web. A journey along spectacular and challenging roads, through charming villages, gorgeous landscape, green valley’s, crystal-clear lakes, millions of rivers falling off the mountains, deep gorges, and frightening glaciers, over the famous high Alps covered with snow and through high frosted peaks; a paradise for every connoisseur that cares and loves nature.

Enjoy it all, from a different angle in the saddle of a motorbike; escorted with a local and multilingual Swiss tour-guide you’ll get familiar with the Swiss-people; their four languages, Swiss German in various dialects and slang, French, Italian and Romansh, their attitude, freakishness of punctuality, customs and traditions, cuisine and lots of other things that you may find totally strange, bizarre and difficult to understand.
Switzerland and the Swiss!
Not everybody understand why we are the way we are... but many appreciate and actually love the way we are!

Excellent tours with motorcycles in Switzerland: Ride to the top until you meet the Edelweiss and the Gentian!  

I grew up bilingual in Switzerland and lived over a third of my life in foreign English-speaking countries. That made me open-minded and familiar in understanding others’ opinions, cultures, way of thinking and lifestyle. Sometimes, my heart is in the African bush, and my soul is in Switzerland.
Switzerland and Europe are hugely different to other countries. You will not find a similar piece of land that offers so many curiosities, stories, and attractions within such a short distance. Most people rush through Switzerland and Europe and do not notice the various particularities and details.
Within a few miles or kilometers, a huge diversity:
The language, the cuisine with its regional gourmets and specialties, the traditions, the shape and the architecture of the houses, all are changing within a few miles or kilometers. I will make you aware of it, so you will not miss it. They are all worth discovering and I will need a long life to discover them all. 
With my valued planning system, my unique Twincruiser Tours package, my knowledge, and sense of humor, I will make sure that you get the best of what you really want!  

My website shows just a small selection of what I offer. Since nearly 50 years, I design, plan, and organize motorcycle tours and holidays. Contact me for your very own personal and tailored Swiss Holiday.

Simply… different…

Stress-free travel packages: Your way to enjoy your luxury holiday with motorcycle with complete peace of mind. You holiday begins at your Swiss landing place; whether you arrive at the Swiss airports of Genève-Cointrin, Zürich-Kloten or Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg or at the railway station in Bern, I will be there to welcome you and make you feel at ease in a foreign country.

Get to the point, leave the small talk!

Saying things just to say something, not with me. I prefer to look into your eyes and have deep and authentic talks.
The time we spend together is mostly short, therefore let’s get to know each other and have some real good chats. Depending on what you say and the things I find out during our conversation, I will adjust the tour. Don’t worry, I will get you to the discussed and confirmed attractions and reveal some secrets. Due to the over-tourism and mass-tourism, I keep many attractions and special places to myself and do no longer publish them. I have gone away from most social media, because for me, social means to be personally with you.
Walking or driving through cities like Bern, Interlaken, Brienz, Genève or Geneva, Interlaken, Gstaad, Lausanne, Basel, Lucerne, Lugano, Ascona, Montreux, Saas-Fee, Täsch, Zermatt, Schaffhausen or Zürich on your own or with me won’t be the same.

Below a few remarkable examples for you to help you make a choice and to decide what you’d like us to combine with your visit:

• The château of Chillon.
• Train journey with the Glacier Express.
• Rack steam railway Brienz Rothorn with the view of not less than 693 peaks built in 1892.
• A weekend in Zermatt with the Matterhorn or Cervin.
• A walk in the snow at the Top of Europe with the Eiger, Mönch and the Jungfrau.

• Ride up to the Niesen alongside the longest stairway in the world with 11’674 steps!
• Legend and Myth at mount Pilatus? True or false? You find your own answer at the place where a long time ago, dragons with healing powers lived!

• Go back in time on the lake of Thun with the steam paddle boat “Blümlisalp” built in 1906.

• Walk over the Chapel Bridge, stop at the Lion Monument and rest a while in the Jesuit Church in Lucerne.
• Hike in the Swiss National Park near Zernez. (Hiking only with appropriate shoes, please)
• Taste some of the unknown Swiss wines along the Lavaux UNESCO World Heritage.
• See interesting places where personalities like Albert Einstein, Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, known as Le Corbusier, Alberto Giacometti, Louis-Joseph Chevrolet that emigrated to the USA to set up Chevrolet in Detroit in 1911, followed by the Frontenac Motor Company in 1916, Charlie Chaplin, Freddy Mercury and his Mountain Studio, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and many others lived.
• The list is long. I know a lot and I won’t run out of suggestions! Take your time to enjoy!

Switzerland, the Swiss Alps, and discovery tours with motorcycles (motorcycle tours)

Switzerland was founded on the first of August 1291, which is also a national holiday and was declared a neutral state in 1515.
Switzerland is a mountainous country in the middle of Europe and is not connected to an ocean, it is landlocked. It can be reached through three main international airports, Zürich (Kloten), Geneva (Cointrin) an Basel-Mulhouse, or by train, bus, motorcycle or by car from another European country.
Switzerland does not have a capital and Bern is the federal city of Switzerland.
Switzerland’s area covers 41’285 square kilometers (15’940,228 square miles) and their roughly 8,5 million people live on a habitable area of 15’700 square kilometers (6’061,80 square miles). This results on an average population density of around 541 people per square kilometers (about 1’402 people per square mile) as more than 60% of the total area is covered by rivers, lakes, forests, hills, mountains, Alps and glaciers. The mountain belt stretches across eight alpine countries, is 1’200 kilometers long (746 miles) and has 82 peaks above 4’000 meters (13’123 feet) above sea level. Out of these 82 ices- and snow- covered majestic peaks, 48 are located within Switzerland, you won’t find this anywhere else; no wonder that Switzerland is called the Roof of Europe.
Switzerland on the map!
The north-south length is approximately 220 kilometers (140 miles) and the west-east length about 350 kilometers (220 miles). Would it be flattened; it would reach a surface over the half of the USA: Most visitors underestimate the traveling time in the mountainous Switzerland. Our tip is to plan journeys of a minimum of 8-10 days. And who knows? You might come back for more. 
Switzerland has 26 cantons and each one has its independence. Four languages Romansh, French, Italian and German or rather Swiss German with various dialects are spoken.
The motorcycle season in Switzerland is very short. Depending on the opening of the alpine passes, the season for motorcycles starts around mid-June and ends during September. I experienced snow falls during August and let me tell you that, on a motorcycle it is not funny. It will block you, you might have a bad experience, it will definitely cost you money and believe me, they is no immediate way out.
If you are unsure, contact me, I will most probably save you a lot of time, unnecessary costs and expenses and give you a true and right information that you can rely on. 

There is a multitude of places to discover. 
Are you one of these very high paced traveller? 
Quickly a picture to put into one of these social medias and hope they we go to the next highlight.
There is much more than just riding and rushing through Lucerne with the mount Pilatus and the River Reuss, the Titlis, Interlaken with the Jungfrau, Eiger, Top of Europe, Grindelwald and the lakes of Thun and Brienz, Zermatt with the Matterhorn and the Gornergrad Railway, Zürich, Lausanne, and Geneva to name some main tourist magnets. 
The trick is to know what, when and how! With an experienced and local insider guide, I  will save you a lot of time, make you see more and deeper with a knowledge that only an indigenous can give you and you will be much less stressed. Don’t forget you are on a holiday to recover from the daily routine life! 

As experienced and local tourist guide, I am able to offer you various packages to natural beauties and attractions for an unforgettable holiday with or without a motorcycle or another vehicle in Switzerland.
