Every year thousands of visitors are drawn to the New Glarus area to enjoy the atmosphere that thrives here and nowhere else outside Switzerland.

Next we will enjoy a guided tour of the New Glarus area followed by a sumptuous lunch at the New Glarus Hotel, featuring a cheese fondue appetizer, Swiss entree and Swiss entertainment.

After lunch there is some free time to look around New Glarus and visit the quaint shops and the New Glarus Bakery that was featured on the Food Network. Finally we visit the New Glarus Brewery to tour and sample the beers.
