Love birds Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor flew to Switzerland for 10 days to celebrate the New Year.

The passionate lovers leave for Swiss Alps each year as it happens to be their preferred holiday spot.

Saif loves to ski and the actress loves the eternal beauty of the place.

The hot pair will stay at a chalet-hut possessed by the Gstaad Palace that runs on solar energy.

A source stated, "Bebo and Saif believe in preserving the eco-system in their own way. Last year, she had promoted eco-friendly handbags. Every year, they re-cycle their fir trees during Christmas. This year, Kareena and Saif will be staying for a few days at the Gstaad Palace in Switzerland and then shift to a wooden hut (the Walig Hut) built like a small 18th century chalet at 5000 feet above sea level. The 300-year old hut has been carefully restored with basic plumbing and solar-powered electric lighting. Saif loves skiing, so every year the couple have been spending their New Year's on the Swiss Alps."

The chalet-hut is very pricey costing more than £1,000 a night for two people. This consists of a luxurious three-course food with wine and champagne.

Initially, the duo will spend some days at the Tower Suite in the Gstaad Palace.

"The Gstaad Palace offers a breathtaking view of the majestic Swiss Alps and is one of Saif's favorite hotels. A wide variety of activities such as golf, skiing, hot-air-ballooning et al are available near the hotel."

Before leaving for Switzerland, Bebo took a full day break and spent it with her loving pa Randhir Kapoor.

A source close to the actress said, "Kareena has been constantly shooting for her films and ads and hardly had any time to spend with her father. Incidentally, he too was holidaying in the USA. They met up for lunch yesterday and spent the whole day together catching up."

We wish them a very happy & prosperous new year.
