[quote=Anonymous]I have been both to Switzerland in the summer and to Scotland, albeit in spring. Both are lovely. If cost is a concern, check pricing as I would expect Switzerland to be more $$$.

Above posters are correct the trains are fabulous; they will announce a train running 2 minutes late that is how well they run. I found the Alps beautiful in summer but my elderly travel companion (my mother) wanted it to look snowy (even though she didn’t want to be there in winter - go figure).

Since most PPs focused on Switzerland, I will say Scotland was amazingly beautiful but we did not use trains and instead had a rental car. I think you could use trains to get around some but it doesn’t sound like you want to move around. I wouldn’t go to Scotland if you can’t include Skye in your itinerary though as that to me was some of the more beautiful part. You could always hire a driver for a day maybe? Loch Linnhe might be an option for home base? We were only a party of 4 so not sure what you will find for larger parties.[/quote]
