Eugenio 

if you need some info about Portugal just send me a private message.

Hi!  Send me a PM if you want to know anything about the Bernese Oberland.  We've been going to the same little village for 38 consecutive years with 'Old Timer' cars & know the area well.  These days the Grimsel & Susten Passes will be open until well into September so you've plenty of time.  Paradise & virtually crime free.  At the moment the Swiss franc is the most favourable for years.

Regards

John

Hah!  just woken up & noticed you are going late October so the passes will be closed although the Brunig will remain open through the Winter.  Super time of the year with the Autumn foliage & sparkling clear air

Late October is not the best time to spend holidays in Switzerland as the summer is over but the ski season has not started yet. In addition, it can be quite rainy and already chilly in the mountain regions. Some hotels even close for this time of the year. You may most likely find a nice weather in the Ticino region of Switzerland (Italian speaking), which has its own microclimate and is around 3-4 hours from Zurich by car.

Anyway, if you are happy to spend most of the day in a hotel spa, there are plenty of nice hotels in the area around Zurich (either Switzerland or Austria). You can search and also book on the following websites:
