Tip from tour guide
While you're in Engelberg, visit the Globi theme park opened there in 2008! For German-speaking Swiss above two years old, Globi is one of the most popular book characters and can be considered the Swiss Mickey Mouse.
In 1932, the head of the advertising department of the Globus chain of stores was looking for a character who would evoke emotional involvement in adults and “raise” future clients from a very young age. It was created by illustrator Robert Lips. Its success was stunning, and the advertising image took on a life of its own! In 1935, “Globis Weltreise” (“Globi’s Around the World”) was published.
I also read books from Globi. They often touch on serious issues, as in the latest one, “Globi and the secrets of Swiss democracy.”
Books, by the way, are also published in English.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities.
