I subscribed to your channel, thank you very much for valuable info with many tips. Great job! I love Switzerland, I have been here 13 times, but I still want more :)) It is one of the best countries in the world!❤
I have now been visiting Switzerland for over 50 years. I stay in one place (nowadays Zurich) but go out travelling every day using a First Class Swiss Travel Pass. The combination of the Swiss Travel Pass and the,fantastic taktfahrplan timetable means that I do not need a fixed plan as to where I am going. I have only a rough idea when I set out each morning. During the day I will often change my mind as to where i am going. It is so relaxing to be able to do this!. You do not have this wonderful flexibility if you buy tickets using a Half Fare Travel Card.
Thank you.. I was there for 2 weeks in September 2022, and I agree it’s the most beautiful time to visit. The weather was incredible, the scenery was heavenly. We stayed in Spiez for 5 days, and I fell in love with that town. It was so beautiful!! ❤️ We visited many of the hotspots like Lauterbrunnen, Zermatt, Lucern, Appenzell, Gruyères, but what I love the most are the small villages in the mountains that are off the beaten track. I already have a long list of places I want to see next time I come. I’m hoping and praying I can come back.
We just came back from Switzerland after 2 weeks travelling by train only around Zurich, Lucerne, Interlaken and St Moritz in May. We had tours booked but cancelled them as we found we could do it much cheaper and also got to the mountains early before the tourist groups. You have to be patient as the clouds come and go. The best part being not locked into a tour group was we could monitor the weather and usually we picked the right day. Totally agree about overpacking and layers is the way to go. The host for this channel is spot on and great video. Trains run spot on time as the Swiss are famous for so don't be late !!! Expensive absolutely but you would know that before taking on such a trip :)
I went to Zermatt. It was the highlight of my trip! I saw the Matterhorn from there. I regret not taking the ( expensive) train up to the mountain to get a closer view of it. But the snow and the village of Zermatt was glorious!!
BROH I'M BRAZILIAN AND JUST FACT OF THE DUDE TRANSLATE YOUR CONTENT TO AN VARIATIONS OF LANGUAGES IT'S INCREDIBLE, I'M WITHOUT UNDERSTAND WHY TOO FEW PEOPLE TO CHANNEL SO FANTASTIC, it had to be swiss, I wish all of good for you bro
Just got back from an amazing 18-day trip, and honestly, it felt like heaven on earth! The landscapes were breathtaking, and the local festivals were such a joy to experience. Thanks for the helpful tips! 😊
Getting ready to go in late October, was the only time I could get off from work, really looking forward to it. Hopefully can get some of the best stuff in.
Hi , by mid September I’ll be in Switzerland for the 3th time but this time I want to visit the small village to enjoy the nature. What village to you suggest? “ I’ll stay only 2 days in Switzerland then going to Spain ) Thanks in advance
Thanks a lot for watching the videos and for your trust! I will produce a lot of videos over the summer so i think you will be all set for your trip 👌😄 have a good weekend
My Mother was born in Zurich in 1910. We went back to visit in 1972 and 1979. My Mother spoke the Swiss Dialect too, in addition to German and French. Her older sister's son, my cousin, was an MD in Bern and the US too. He had a Chalet unit overlooking Gstaad with a good restaurant in the Swiss style at the Hotel Bernerhof. Anyway, we enjoyed the scenery and food there very much. It was fun to go up the Uitliberg near Zurich by rail and boat on the Zurichsee by Zurich and to go to Rapperswil on the lake. A friend of my Mother was from Zug, and on Swiss Independence day at the Swiss Home that used to be in Mt Kisco, NY, the Swiss Ambassador to the US would address us and we could buy Zugger Kirschtorte, a cake, flown in from Switzerland.😊
Great video and the picture quality was amazing. We're planning a trip through Switzerland with stops in Zurich, Grindelwald, Brienz, and Luzern. We're considering a day trip to Zermatt but aren't sure if it's worth fitting into our schedule. Would you recommend visiting Zermatt for the day, or should we focus on the areas we're already visiting? Any insights on what we might miss out on if we skip Zermatt would be greatly appreciated!"
Sorry for bothering… but as a Swiss I‘d skip Zermatt, considering your other stops. If you have 2 weeks Zermatt would be a great option, but otherwise I‘d recommend enjoying the other places insted of racing from stop to stop…
@@skzlandWhen in Lucerne you could consider an additional day trip to Mt Rigi or Mt Pilatus or to the village of Stoos… all of them are worth a visit 😊
I agree with markus. Visit zermatt if you really want to see it/ say you were there. The closest would be from brienz/ interlaken. If you go up jungfraujoch for some snow, then zermatt will be similar. Enjoy your time!
For sure when I visit Swiss I’ll make sure not to stay in those newly constructed hotels ang airbnb i would love to stay in nice cozy local hotel or village ❤ thanks for sharing
Great tips! Do you have a pass recommendation for a four day trip to work in conjunction with a Eurail Global pass (which we already purchased for a larger extended trip.)
I would use the benefit of the eurail pass that gives you discounts on a lot of mountain railways and cable cars in switzerland and just buy regular tickets for shorter trips
Hey. Love your video. We’ll be in Zurich in August. Is there anywhere we can travel to for a day trip to see the mountains like at the start of your video?
You want to look into the jungfrau region or if you want it a bit closer then head to titlis for example! They are both doable from Zurich in a day but the jungfrau region is a bit an extended day 😊
what pass will I get if I just want to visit Zurich, Lucerne, Interlaken and Lauterbrunnen? Maybe just one gondola ride. We are both seniors 74 and 68 years old. No high altitude mountains for us. Thanks.
Hi! Do you have any suggestion for nice NON hot spot location in the southern part of Switzerland (mountain villages, valleys, nice hikes)? Any video on them? Thanks
You can technically book one here, but they might be full or expensive in summer. Also when youre from the us, you might find it surprising that hotel rooms only have 1 king or queen bed and not two.
Hi, wonderful tips. We are travelling soon in july last and 1st week of August. We are taking Bernina express from Tirano to Chur. And then half day to vaduz and then making Thun bas base for 4 nights 5 days. During those days pls help us to choose between titlis / Zermatt. Where the view and experience is better for snow cladded peaks? Bern is in our plan one day from Thun. One day to Interlaken.
@@SwitzerlandInsiderbetween 26july- Aug 1 we see it's warmer. When we are visiting Zermatt, Gornergrat glacier , Mt titlis etc how much winter cloths we will need to pack. Any suggestions pls ? Where we can have good fondue ?
Hi, I wanna visit July next month to Interlaken. Please recommend me a hotel/apartment near Interlaken, which should be a reasonable price. I know in city is more expensive than usual. I would highly appreciate it if you could send me some of the names or places of hotel apartments or lodges.Thanks
Thank you for the tips. We are travelling by road to switzerland from UK last week july for 3 nights. Please guide me for the best natural beauty area to visit and stay? Many thanks
I am planning next year from India. First week of June What about cheap stay with family? Basel city as base would be good? What about attaractions must?Interlaken,Lucerne,Zurich,Geneva, Gstaad,Lauterbernn, what next? What about cheaper and good food?migros coop? What next?
Your plan looks good already! I would not have basel as the base. I would travel to each region and stay a bit outside the hot spots (neighbor village)
Hello , we are planning to travel from june 22-28, in zurich, Rhein falls, lucerne, interlaken covering mt. jungfraujoch, mt. Titlis, Oeschinensee, Lauterbrunnen, Iseltwald, Giessbach falls. Which pass do you recommend. Swiss pass or half fare card ? Please help me out
I am coming in April. I would like to rent a car and travel around and stay in an inexpensive place with 2kids and wife. Please give me suggestions. Thanks
Tip regarding the restaurants: if you want to save some money but still enjoy a warm meal during the lunchtime, consider going to COOP or Migros restaurant. Beware, many of them are closed during the weekends and they serve meal only around noon (i.e. until ca 2 pm).
I will be visiting Switzerland for 2 days only. 1st day, Travelling to St Moritz from Tirana, Then St Moritz to lauterbrunnen. What I must do on the 2nd day?
What is the correct way to go to Top of the Europe from Grindelwald? Do you take the funicular or the train? And does the cost of 100 CHF include round trip?
Hai thx 4d information, what do u think if we rent a car in winter rather than using public transportation, cause the price is very expensive even with STP, is it save driving in winter there?
Would it be a good idea to visit in January? I am thinking of staying in Zurich, maybe for about 5 days for my birthday and doing a few day trips. Any suggestions?
Very good idea! If you stay in Zurich you can also visit Graubünden region, as well as Interlaken region. But if you ask me I would stay in the Alps directly, as there will be snow and in Zurich most likely not. Your idea sounds good though! 👌😊
Switzerland is my favorite country in Europe.Have been there 3 times.I have a sister in law who lives in Schaffhausen.I still have many places I would like to see.
❤Hi! First of all Thanks!! 🎉 I am from Guatemala thinking to travel and visit there sadly only for a few days....as we have some others places booked to go. But I have 3 Q.? May be you can have some ideas., is the eurorailpass a good idea since we will go round Europe.....to use 🇨🇭🇨🇭 and where in the map is Einsiedlensis.? Is near a hotspot? To be and visist And wich one is the place that have waterfalls .? Thanks!
Hey yes you can take this pass and have a good time through europe! Einsiedeln? Is a place a bit far from other hotspots! Its closer to lake zurich! The place with the waterfalls is lauterbrunnen
I wish to stay for 4 days. Which low cost place should I make my base for all 4 days, so that it will be easy and convenient to go for mountain excursions, panoramic train rides.
👋🏼 Small struggling Travel Channel here. I love your content, thanks for this great video! You inspire me to keep grinding my channel, maby one day I’ll grow as big as you 🥲
I’ll be there September 10. Do I rent a car or take train? Or maybe car a few days , then train? I want to see villages more than bigger cities. If I rent, is parking hard to find?
We will also be there that week and wondered same thing. Planned to get car at Zurich airport, but seems trains go everywhere, and some small places don’t allow cars at all. Do you have good hotel recommendations?
Hey there. Really loved your video. i am travelling to zurich on 30th of september and will be there for 5 days. Can you suggest some things not to miss during my trip. I have not booked any trip yet. Thanks in advance
You will have a great time exploring the mountains and going hiking. If you are in zurich you can go on day trips to the jungfrau region or go to graubünden (engadine region) to enjoy the fall starting to come!
I’m coming for 6 days in Switzerland in july, august staying in Olten making it base to cover Lucerne, interlaken, grindlwald zurich which pass do you recommend?
It depends how much you will use it. If you stay like 4 day in Grindelwald and dont make much distance youll be better of with the Swiss Half Fare Card for Tourists for example. If you take the train everyday for an hour or more or you want convenience of not booking a ticket each time, then the travel pass might be more suitable!
Hi bro. I am from India and planned a trip to swiss on 4th of November. Can you please tell how the climate will be at that time. What kind of jerkin should i bring
Sir, you show us the mistakes AND SO I Request you to show us in detail how to overcome it with series of videos which help us a lot. I am from India and here school have vacation in May so we by force to visit in May with family can you please guide further how to plan 8 to 10 day itenary which includes train ride, some offbeat villages to visit and some beautiful but offbeat mountain excursion. Waiting for your detail guided two or three videos on my queries. ❤🙏 Want to visit mount pilatus, mount titlis, matterehon, Grindelwald First, can you suggest to visit all this in 8-10 days itenary with train ride, Sorry for long question 😢
Got back from my 7th trip since 2015. Very few businesses want Francs. I withdrew too much money and ended up having a hard time using all of it. I got frowns at all restaurants when i offered francs. That was 2 weeks ago. Things have changed since 2015! Talk to Daddy!!
Coming to Europe the last half of June/early July. Flying back to USA from Zurich, so we decided to spend a couple of days in Lucerne area. We will be staying in Wiggis, then our last night back to Zurich staying at the airport Capsule Hotel.
@@SwitzerlandInsider I thought I recognized the Congress Centre. By the way, I saw your video years ago about buns with the chocolate. I made sure to get some (multiple times) when I was in town over xmas visiting family.
Ah thats so nice that you found my recommendation useful!! 😄 It has been a while since that video, but now Im starting to upload more often 😊👌 also you can see the chapel bridge if you look closely 😄
My view of "checklist" or "hotspot" tourism is that yes, these places are overdone cliches, but usually for a reason because they usually ARE worth visiting, and you're missing out if you skip them because you don't want to be one of "those" tourists, but that just makes you a different kind of one of "those" tourists, the kind who intentionally skips famous sites thinking that it makes them hip and cool or something, when it doesn't. My view is visit these places, budget time and money for them because there's usually long lines and it costs a bit, but do visit them, and then you're done and can visit those off the beaten path places you've been dying to see. Don't try to be a "cool" tourist. There's no such thing.

My Mother was born in Zurich in 1910.
We went back to visit in 1972 and 1979.
My Mother spoke the Swiss Dialect
too, in addition to German and French.
Her older sister's son, my cousin, was
an MD in Bern and the US too.
He had a Chalet unit overlooking
Gstaad with a good restaurant in
the Swiss style at the Hotel Bernerhof.
Anyway, we enjoyed the scenery and
food there very much.
It was fun to go up the Uitliberg near
Zurich by rail and boat on the Zurichsee by Zurich and to go to Rapperswil on the lake.
A friend of my Mother was from Zug,
and on Swiss Independence day at
the Swiss Home that used to be in
Mt Kisco, NY, the Swiss Ambassador
to the US would address us and we
could buy Zugger Kirschtorte, a cake,
flown in from Switzerland.😊
Thats a lovely memory!! Thanks a lot for sharing it!

Hello ! So do you have a list of non hotspots to go to in each area ?
How about daily commuting from these outer sides (suburbs) of Interlaken?
There are buses!
I will be visiting Switzerland for 2 days only. 1st day, Travelling to St Moritz from Tirana, Then St Moritz to lauterbrunnen. What I must do on the 2nd day?
If you want you can visit jungfraujoch or schilthorn! Also maybe look into mürren and gimmelwald. Interlaken is also very nice! Enjoy!

Hey mate, What do you think about staying in aarbug?? also wondering about swiss pass for 4 day. How does it works? planning stay for 4 night
It depends what you want to see! If you want to experience the alps, then aarburg might be a bit far to travel every day!

If he wants some action maybe the jungfrau region is best. Paragliding, zipline, mountain coaster, swimming in the lake etc.

I am looking into it for the future but not atm! Thanks for asking though!
I’ll be there September 10. Do I rent a car or take train? Or maybe car a few days , then train? I want to see villages more than bigger cities. If I rent, is parking hard to find?
If you want to see villages, then a car is better! You will find parking.
We will also be there that week and wondered same thing. Planned to get car at Zurich airport, but seems trains go everywhere, and some small places don’t allow cars at all. Do you have good hotel recommendations?
Hey there. Really loved your video. i am travelling to zurich on 30th of september and will be there for 5 days. Can you suggest some things not to miss during my trip. I have not booked any trip yet. Thanks in advance
You will have a great time exploring the mountains and going hiking. If you are in zurich you can go on day trips to the jungfrau region or go to graubünden (engadine region) to enjoy the fall starting to come!
I’m coming for 6 days in Switzerland in july, august staying in Olten making it base to cover Lucerne, interlaken, grindlwald zurich which pass do you recommend?
The half fare card seems reasonable. Maybe look into the Berner Oberland Pass also, and you can purchase it with the half fare card cheaper.
Nice video, can you suggest is it worth buying Swiss travel pass or buying train or bus tickets separately worth ??
It depends how much you will use it. If you stay like 4 day in Grindelwald and dont make much distance youll be better of with the Swiss Half Fare Card for Tourists for example. If you take the train everyday for an hour or more or you want convenience of not booking a ticket each time, then the travel pass might be more suitable!
@@SwitzerlandInsider thanks for the info 😊
can we buy empire estate building with half pass??
Hi bro. I am from India and planned a trip to swiss on 4th of November. Can you please tell how the climate will be at that time. What kind of jerkin should i bring
Hi, it will be around 0 to 15C most likely and the higher up you go, the colder and you have a chance to see snow already
Very useful and all true. But you forgot to say how good are the local and authentic restaurants!!
Thanks for your feedback!
great information, however, that background music is a bit annoying or very loud
Thanks for your feedback!

I'm planning to visit Swiss in Jan 2025. Any suggestions on places and how to commute within Swiss?
Jungfrau region is very nice during this time of year! I recommend going there by train
music way too loud and distracting, however, thx for the tips
Thanks for the feedback!
Got back from my 7th trip since 2015. Very few businesses want Francs. I withdrew too much money and ended up having a hard time using all of it. I got frowns at all restaurants when i offered francs. That was 2 weeks ago. Things have changed since 2015! Talk to Daddy!!
What currency did they want
هل نستطيع ادخال سيارتنا الى سويسرا ونحن قادمون من هولندا ام لايسمح بذللك؟؟؟
Yes you can but if you drive on the highway you will need to buy a highway toll sticker for CHF 40 at the border
@@SwitzerlandInsider thanks❤️
Amazingly 🔥
Coming to Europe the last half of June/early July. Flying back to USA from Zurich, so we decided to spend a couple of days in Lucerne area. We will be staying in Wiggis, then our last night back to Zurich staying at the airport Capsule Hotel.
Wish you the best time! ⛰️
Thank you for your tips
My pleasure 😊
is it better to rent a car or buy a train pass?
Good video but the music drowns you out. Superfluous
Yeah I realised also 😊 thanks for the feedback!
How is it visiting swiss in december ??
Can be very nice if you go to the mountains for snow!

Yes and Mt Pilatus!
@@SwitzerlandInsider I thought I recognized the Congress Centre. By the way, I saw your video years ago about buns with the chocolate. I made sure to get some (multiple times) when I was in town over xmas visiting family.

Noted
My view of "checklist" or "hotspot" tourism is that yes, these places are overdone cliches, but usually for a reason because they usually ARE worth visiting, and you're missing out if you skip them because you don't want to be one of "those" tourists, but that just makes you a different kind of one of "those" tourists, the kind who intentionally skips famous sites thinking that it makes them hip and cool or something, when it doesn't. My view is visit these places, budget time and money for them because there's usually long lines and it costs a bit, but do visit them, and then you're done and can visit those off the beaten path places you've been dying to see. Don't try to be a "cool" tourist. There's no such thing.
Very nice poi t!

Switzerland is really full of tourist traps. Really really annoying. Add the really inappropriate weather unless is July or August.
