Great Swiss Cities with Mirjam Grob 

Against the backdrop of staggering natural beauty, Switzerland’s cities abound with often overlooked urban charm. Join Rick Steves’ Europe guide Mirjam Grob for a tour of her hometown, tangled, lakeside Lausanne, where we enjoy Art Brut and learn to blend in with Swiss city folk. After a crash course on Switzerland’s efficient transit system, we visit the classy capital of Bern to ponder pragmatic drug policies and float a rushing river. Along the way, we sip Apfelschorle and snack on alpine cheese and chocolate. #ricksteves #mondaynighttravel
