The Alps trip will run from June 12-18, whilst the Napa Valley experience takes place at the peak of fall foliage, from October 29 – November 4.

“Four Seasons Drive Experience is a natural extension of who we are and what we deliver – creating curated experiences that allow guests to discover the character of a locale in new and unexpected ways,” says Alejandro Reynal, President and CEO of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.

While in Geneva, guests will visit Gruyere Village, before embarking on a panoramic tour across UNESCO World Heritage Lavaux, Vineyard Terraces, wine estates that date back to the Middle Ages, and then Four Seasons Hotel Megeve – the latter of which will be reached by a road trip through the mesmerizing Chateau d’Avully.

When in Megeve, guests will be toured through the legendary Aravis roads and looping through snow-capped mountains, with the final leg of the tour including a visit to the famed Mont Blanc.

The Napa Valley trip is different in scope and yet entirely similar to the Alps excursion in its luxury offerings. An unmissable spot for wine enthusiasts globally, it is one of the food and wine capitals of North America, and the experience is centered around pure gastronomic delight.

Starting with a welcome dinner at the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Napa Valley, the next day includes a scenic drive to Tomales Bay for an oyster farming experience, followed by a gourmet lunch, world-class wine tasting, and a sumptuous dinner, themes that continue until the hot-air balloon ride themed last day.
