Touring Switzerland - Travel Video. VHS. Questar Video.
"The land of legendary tales
and tall mountain peaks, Switzerland is
Europe's Shangri-La." Little
Switzerland is big! A breeding ground for great
monuments: the Geneva Conventions, the International Red Cross, the
International Olympic Committee, and Dada. It is the home of the
music box and the world's futuristic time-pieces. It's the land of
oversized cowbells and mammoth wheels of Gruyere cheese.
A land of great cities, many with
medieval Old Towns, cathedral
spires, half-timbered houses, and frescoes on the facades of ancient
buildings. It's the city of
Montreux which celebrates jazz in the
Land of the Yodel. It's a train's dizzy ascent up the
Jungfrau.
It is the Matterhorn. It is
St. Moritz and Zermatt and Interlaken
hosting Kings of Industry and Queens of Cinema. Skiing in minks and
golfing in the snow. Switzerland is where the wealth of nations goes
for safekeeping (awful lot of "it's" in this description)
And it's all here, Geneva,
Lake Geneva, Bern, Basel,
Appenzell, St. Moritz, Lugano
(Locarno), Zermatt, Interlaken,
Lucerne, and Zurich.
60 minutes.

Rick Steves' Austria and the Alps
- Travel
Video. 7 Shows.
DVD.
Five
Shows: 2½ hours,
closed captioned, NTSC format, all region compatible.
Here's where we'll take
you...
Vienna
— In Europe's classiest capital we'll tiptoe through the palace of Maria
Theresa and be dazzled by the Hapsburg crown jewels. Then we'll picnic
on the Danube, nibble strudel in an old world cafe, blush at slinky Art
Nouveau,
and waltz to the three-four beat of Johann Strauss.
Salzburg
and Surroundings
— The birthplace of Mozart — and everyone's Sound of Music fantasies —
Salzburg is a baroque jewel of a town. It's also the springboard for
lots of alpine fun — from thrilling summer bobsledding, to idyllic boat
rides in the Salzkammergut lake district, to exploring the delightful
romantic town of Hallstatt.
Alps
of Austria and Italy
— From high on the Zugspitze at the Germany and Austria border, Rick
makes his way down to popular Innsbruck, the historic provincial capitol
of the Hapsburgs. We explore a medieval museum, get a resident's tips on
cuisine — especially dumplings — and slap dance the night away in a
nearby Tyrolean village. By way of historic Brenner Pass, we turn to
feudal Italy at Reifenstein Castle. Then we're out-of-doors, as we zoom
up rock cliffs in a cable car and hike through Alpine meadows in the
Italian Dolomites.
Alps
of France and Switzerland
— Rick makes a home base out
of Chamonix, the original French Alpine resort, ever popular with
international skiing and party crowds. Who says there's no easy way to
conquer Mount Blanc? Just hop a gondola and you'll soar past the great
peak, over glaciers and into Italy. We train over to Appenzell,
Switzerland on the Glacier Express Railway and find Swiss traditions
thriving in yodel-happy, cowbell country.
The
Best of the Alps: Switzerland's Jungfrau Region
— If Heidi is alive, she's
in this sky-high corner of the Swiss Alps, with cowbells ringing on
breathtaking ridges. After settling into a traditional village where
locals scythe hay by hand, we hike and bike. We blast an alphorn, get
sprayed by waterfalls raging deep inside a mountain, and munch muesli
for breakfast at 10,000 feet. For a finale, we ride Europe's highest
lift up the mighty Jungfrau for hot cocoa and oh-wow views.
