@@mathewlee5712 When I went to Japan I got told that Tokyo was expensive. Except for the tourist hotspots Tokyo was really cheap (at least from my Swiss perspective). Only the most popular big cities are expensive for me, like New York, London, Paris, maybe Seoul, etc.
@@wildcraftone I was about to say like wtf such a fool 😂 Who is actually getting coffee like that for no apparent reason?! If you wanna get some croissant and coffee just go to the next backery, get a "pain au chockolat" for about 3.50 and a "Caffee Latte" for 3.- and you're sorted for xour breakfast on the go!
@@ridgefrost a 8$ croissant is clearly not an essential lmao. I live in Geneva which is the second most expensive city itw after Zürich and because both are in Switzerland there is just a tiny price difference between them and trust me you won’t see any local going to a bakery to eat a 8$ croissant and honestly, I never saw one…
I agree, no local average from the worker class eats these costy products... but i personally like to support local produce in the price which is sometimes also "out of budget" for most people i know, especially most "BIO" declared products. For many years, BIO was the standard but now it is a declaration for sustainable produce and fair salaries, which has a lot of tax for product assurance in there. It also gets costly if someone wants to import a product: he needs to make sure his products are up to the standards of a mass of declarations. Reserve space for importing the cargo (if Plane or Train, Harbor is kind of difficult except you would use the Rhein River or so and then you also got the delivery cargo truck stuff with a ton of VORSCHRIFTEN like max ton you can carry, max time of driving with min amount of rest, also remember that you need to pay all these people working there with your stuff also the bureau people and of course the massive amount of tax for making all this possible and safely reaches the destination. Oh and you need to pay a tax for the trash your product causes. Aldi or Lidl can be so cheap indeed but also they are often within the lowest of declaration standards or even contain undeclared ingredients. Some have been found just recently to be too unhealthy for our product declarations. Sometimes i prefer it this way but it is also difficult as the moderate or lower class citizen. I appreciate though that theoretically everybody can have IV (insurance for people who are not able to work 100% like the average citizen because of a disease or broken leg etc) or/and Sozialhilfe (they help you get back on track more or less). They give you budgets so that you can be ok for the time you can't work. I personally experienced living on these (low) budgets and it can be very difficult. My budget for a day was about CHF 25.- so you can imagine what i had to eat back then 😂
@@iceeayt7455 Maybe only on special occasions. Gues, it is a special occasion for tourists.... I made a video in which I comment on this video by the way 😁
I live and work in Switzerland and have no kids to afford. I remember once I was eating a chocolate bar from one of the expensive brands in office, my 40/50-aged colleague noticed that and made some comment about its price. Well, when you are young and single, not considering having kids or properties, the salary will keep you quite a high quality of life. But when you have kids, it will be totally different...
i’m from switzerland and trust me 90 francs can get u through a week if u know how.. as a student i used to eat lunch for 1.90 francs everyday. you really learn how to manage when u live here and don’t have much money
@@TheRint9495 go to the coop (supermarket chain) restaurants. They charge 10 CHF for a medium sized plate and you can pile up food from the buffet on it as much as you can (one time passage), as it’s not charged by weight, as would usually be the case in such establishments
I can eat for free at work and take as much food with me as I can (bakery). If I only go to work and then home, of course I get by with 90 swiss francs a week.
I am Swiss too and I made a video commenting on this video 😃 ruclips.net/video/pTFu00fVj_k/видео.html It was so much fun, I think I will do more of those 😂
Apart from the Hotel and Denner, all other places are amongst the most expensive you could have gone. It does show the general philosophy of Switzerland that you pay a lot for everything, but it results in excellent quality in all things
I get two main messages from that video. 1) Zurich is extremely expensive 2) Quality is there. Usually when travelling to expensive locations it pays off to plan the trip before going. Maybe it would be better to sleep outside Zurich and take a local day pass for free travelling. Also to buy food in a grocery store and make your own sandwich seem to be a cheaper option then going to restaurants. Zurich seems a worthwhile place to stop and visit as the Zurich airport is not far from the city. I would not use Zurich as a base camp during a vacation. It seems to be a city to work not to live or visit.
zurich is expensive, even for swiss people. however you did pick expensive things. we don't go to café schober for our every day coffee. we don't eat in the old town (ie tourist area). you can easily have a days worth of fun for under 100 bucks
Theres so many places for free to go look at. Museeum,parks,places to swimm. Food or coffee you can get at anyplace alot cheaper, like all of us swiss people. Buy a croissont in lidl for 1.40swiss francs and sit on any bank by the river for free,like we swiss people do. Like you go to the expensive places, and make people think in switzerland everything is expensive. You have electric scooters standing on every corner to rent for a cheap price. For 8.40 you can drive 24 hours with train,tram and bus truh whole zurich. Really you should have make some research before you came here. And in any store you can buy swiss chocolate 150gr for 60 cent . Like serious. Wtf.
You made several mistakes: 1) don’t go to the most touristy extensive cafe for coffee and a croissant. You could have got that for half at an equally nice place 2) the free bikes by Züri rollt are on the other side of the main station. 3) never ask people around the main station, they are not locals ;) 4) don’t go to the most overpriced chocolaté Shop , there is even outstanding chocolaté thats cheaper from confiseries… 5) a day ticket for the city of Züri is CHF 8.80 without a discount. Not 30. 30 is for the whole canton (state)! ;)
6) est at take always or go to a grocery shop. They have good cheap stuff for food. Eating in a restaurant is extremely expensive in CH. That’s only for special occasions not everyday 7) you were there when it was warm: swimming in the lake is free 8) often museums have a free day, usually Monday
For us who live here in Switzerland the prices are just normal. We just don't really go to a restaurant to eat.. well I'm speaking for me and my family. You really need a good budget to plan. But you get to know your way to spend less money. The prices in other countries are sometimes unreal to us. (We can't believe it) And Zürich is also the most expensive city in Switzerland, so it also depense where you stay in Switzerland.
As a native Swiss... the water quality really is something we're grateful for haha. On the downside, Lake Zurich was *too* clean at some point so the fish in it started dying. They had to "pollute" it with algae and whatnot lol 😬
@@lh5636 there are close to no homeless people because the municipality a person is registered in has to provide them an apartment. So everyone who is homeless is switzerland is basically doing it voluntarily
@@jasoncarbonara2224 it is. But if you're registered in some small village you'd have to go back to that village to have an apartment provided and if you're a drug addict, some small village isn't appealing because your drugs are in the city
Tips from a local: buy subscriptions / combined tickets for cheaper public transport that will also either include boat / mountain railway trips and museum tickets, or at least make them a lot cheaper. Also, Switzerland is small and possesses a great public transportation system. The logical conclusion to that is to not take a hotel in Zurich, which is expensive even for locals, but in a smaller city or village nearby. Also, Switzerland is highly walkable. As long as you are healthy and motivated and possess a minimum of organizational skill, there is simply no need for a vehicle to discover any Swiss city once you are there. There are also a lot of free things to do, such as visiting our historical buildings (visiting gothic cathedrals, roman ruins etc. usually costs nothing) or local traditions and festivities. Next point: Eating out in a (fast food or any) restaurant is considered a treat rather than a normal everyday activity among average people. If you want to eat cheap without cooking yourself, go to Denner as shown in the video, or really any other grocery store and look for the “budget-brands” such as m-budget in the store called Migros or prix garantie in the store called Coop.
Was traveling around switzerland for a bit more than 2 weeks. It was highseason christmas/ new years. We purchased the swiss travel pass. Basel, zurich, bern, interlaken, laurerbrunnen, wengen and zermatt. I will never financially recover from this trip. But boy! It was so worth it. Dont come to switzerland on a budget or you will miss out on all the epic sights, places and amazing foods.
Interlaken is amazing. I was born here, grew up here and guess what… I‘m still here and not gonna leave. I understand why tourists come here. As a native I also have to say that some tourists spend too much that nature would give for free. If you want to go swim just pick a lake as we literally have two! But some people pay for a damn pool… 🥴 And also drinks. If you get normal water not sparkling or anything that’s a waste of money cause our tap water is DELICIOUS. 😁
By avoiding cafés / restaurants in the expensive parts of town (and choosing the right travel pass) you could have easily made the USD100/CHF90 go a lot further ;-)
Nah it’s not about no one would watch his vids anymore it’s more that we as swiss people know all the things where we can save money on. I was in the same situation. I moved to Leander, TX and had to figure out everything.
01:24 I live in Switzerland since 35 years (not in Zurich though) but I never paid for a "latte" and Chocolat croissant 17 dollars (or CHF?...). Just the most expensive café you've chosen there.
@@Rafaal03 "Good people" ? My family have money to spare. We're not stupid enough to go to a cafe that is stupidely overpriced because it's famous and has a nice view.
the 24hr day pass for zurich city is actually only 8.80 swiss francs. the 30 dollar pass you spoke of includes museums and other sightseeing benefits hence the high price tag!
Exactly. Going to the city center in Zürich is not cheap BUT for less than 9 chf you have a pass for the whole 110 area, which covers most of the main places to see.
And why the heck is he looking for food in the old town where all tourists have to pay like 3x the price … no wonder he doesn’t get much for his 100bucks … next time make a better research, zurich is quite affordable
@Alex No, it shows the government has it's priorities right in keeping the food price and daily essentials cheap so that everyone can afford to eat. Electronics here are almost twice as costly compared to US prices. iPhone 13 costs 799$ but here in india its 1100$. Sounds like you just have a grudge against India.
I live in Zürich, working from home for the last 18 months. I just spend money for food, rent, bills. And I do save a lot, almost 50K for year. Not to forget that: - electronics in Switzerland is cheaper than in many countries in EU. - petrol is cheaper than in Italy; - taxes are low. Definitely for tourists Zürich is gonna be expensive.
To save that much you gotta make at least 100k a year lol. We're not all that fortunate. I mean, I'm not dumb either but I'm also not an architect or banker.
I would recommend you check out prices and venues (like the bikes) online or go to the tourist information centre. 4 minutes into the video and you, sorry, but completely misrepresent Zurich. Yes, Switzerland and especially is expensive. But you can get a espresso for 2Fr. A croissant in a grocery shop for 1.20. The bikes definitely existed at some point but locals have their own bike or use their publibike abo, so may seem oldschool to you but ask a tourist information centre. And also, who the hell told you that it was 30$ to go around the city for one day? It’s literally 8,80Fr for 24(!) full hours. You pay 27Fr for what it’s called a “ZurichCard”. With that you can travel throughout the whole canton, not only the city, so that means you can take a larger boat trip, go for free or with a massive discount to the museums, get 50% off a guided city tour. Even with the 8,80Fr ticket you can hop on small boat rides as long as you stay in the Parameter of the 110 zone (public transport of the city). So I don’t know what your channel’s like but if it’s a travel vlog kind of thing, I would suggest doing research beforehand. If you don’t only want to get paid by RUclips for saying Switzerland’s expensive. Guess what? We de know.
But you guys....we do our research before going anywhere but only locals really now about this thing you just said....unfortunately is not just him that had the experience to not have "fun" at Switzerland because of the prices. I went to Switzerland for a vacation for 4 days and I want to get in my car and go back home on the 2nd day because it was too expensive!
@@chefpatrese I think everyone being in his/her hometown/country will know exatcly where to find the right/cheap things, but for everyone else it is difficult. Hence, I am not surprised that as a tourist you might not find and get access to all the right and relevant information. I think he made a very good choice with Schober and Läderach, but these are both very expensive (even for us in Switzerland). The Zurich card would have been a good option to be aware of, as they could have made a boat trip as well. Moral of the story: do not only check out the internet, but hit up the locals as well... :)
Living in Switzerland 5 years never paid 17 for a coffee and croissant. Used to pay 4.5 for coffee croissant and oJ at a cafe on the lake in Lausanne. So it's about choice too. The more you get to know a place the more you find places that are reasonable. Ate a falfel sandwich for 8 franc the other day. Agreed that the trains are expensive, but not if you live here , you get a 50% discount ....
So basically you went always for the most expensive 🤣 Läderrach is totally expensive, you can find much cheaper swiss chocolate. Same with the Café and Croissants.
In Switzerland the quality of each product is very important, from chocolate to the high technology of many consumer goods... Life in this country isn't cheap, but it is worth it. By the way...... Switzerland is really a beautiful country!!!
Hi Brett, Im actually from Switzerland and I thought you would be interested to know that as a local, for cheap but good meals, I use an app called too good too go. It’s basically an app where food stores/restaurants can sign up and instead of throwing the leftovers, they sell them for really cheap prices at the end of the day! The only inconvenience is that you don’t really get to choose what you receive that much but I’ve only had great experiences with it! Take care and hmu if your in gva!
The drinkable water fountains are one of my favourite parts about alpine countries. There are fountains everywhere and they have some of the nicest water I have ever drunk
Another good option to visit Switzerland on a budget is to stay in bordering cities of France, Italy and Austria and do day trips into Switzerland from there.
Not that extreme, but yeah, I think 1 in 8 people is a Millionaire. On the other hand: A lot of that capital is frozen up in personal homes - so not really productive or liquid. A house in Switzerland easily goes for 1M+, even within 50KM of Zurich
Haha... But a million, in general, is not what is used to be! Look at the prices of assets these days.... The cities in the US are as expensive as the cities in Switzerland.
yeah that breakfast is a really good way to blow up your budget 2 hours into the day. have to say, the chocolate croissant looked so damn delicious, gotta try that out when im in Zürich the next time.
@@revelate8385 if I did the same video I would easily come along with 90 CHF, I personally spend 20 CHF daily for food and I live in Zurich. Even in Zurich Mainstation the most central location you get a large portion of rice with vegetables for 9,80 CHF. Further, in LIDL you get very cheap prices (-60% than COOP). Further, Migros has a brand "Migros budget" for several products in their supermarket that costs the half of usual prices. Obviously if you go to the city center restaurants and cafes for clickbait its okay to demonstrate how impossibly expensive Zurich is (which is not true). 80 Rappen for A chocolate (1 dollar ) in the store.
Noooo, don't have coffee at Schober, there are so many better (and cheaper) places in Zurich. And why, why did you choose Läderach over Sprüngli??? You need to come back!!
@@SN-bl6xm Sprüngli is also very good, but Läderach is CLEARLY better. Agree! 1) Läderach, 2) Sprüngli, 3) Cailler, 4) Lindt...actually, even normal, simple chocolate of Coop and Migros are very good and they are far cheaper than the top brands.
@@peteT269 Yeah actually the chickolate bars from the normal supermarkets are so much better than fancy chockolate from many other countries. And I don't know if yu can find them everywhere but I love "grellinger" chockolate. They are a backery but also a Konditorei. Their "Schnitzelbrot" (pork meat sandwich) is awesome. Also love to get a "pain au chockolate" there for breakfast
LOL! I was there 3 weeks ago. Yes, I was first taken surprised by the prices. But after having the food, I thought it was not that bad. They used the best ingredients for the food, so it tasted so good. And the meat was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. Coffee was quite expensive though. A Starbucks grande latte was over 7 CHF. By the way, if someone has a chance to be in Zurich, please try the local food and meat, and he/she can see how delicious it is.
I live in Zurich, and sorry but as an Italian the quality is still noticeably inferior to Italy. Unless you go to the very expensive restaurants that - surprise - import everything, mostly from France or Italy. Don't get me wrong, better than many countries especially up north, but not as good as some others close by.
@@Swooshpragler What? I don't come to Zurich and enjoy Italian food. I was talking about local food that use local ingredients. IMHO, it must be nut to come to Zurich and enjoy Italian food.
@@lthiem101 No you must have misunderstood my comment. Local food is inferior to the same kind of Italian food. Not comparing Swiss and Italian foods, I am comparing Swiss meat with Italian meat, Swiss cheese with Italian cheese, Swiss vegetables with Italian vegetables, Swiss fruit with Italian fruit. With the exception of bread, milk, and probably some other stuff, Italian quality of the same foods will always be better than even the local Swiss ones
@@Swooshpragler In your logic, Italian food is inferior to French food. It is fine with me if you think that way. For me, I don't compare Swiss and Italian food based on Italian taste or palate.
@@lthiem101 This isn't subjective. Many Italian foods are superior to the Swiss. Some aren't. Some French foods are superior to the Italian and way superior to the Swiss. Others aren't. This isn't based on palate. If you travel the world and try out different local foods you and literally 99.9% of the people who also did, will agree with you. But hey, maybe you're part of that 0.1% that has broken taste buds. Either way glad for you that you got to enjoy Swiss local food. Peace
Ahh Switzerland was my favorite place on my Europe backpacking trip! I was there for 26 days, saw 7 cities and spent just about 1900$ (food, hostels, gondola rides, transportation). Its definitely a very expensive country but its very possible to see it on a budget! I made a video of my budget break down on my page :)
You are wrong side of train station to look for Zuri rollt, just opposite of that is Bahnhofstrasse and about 100 mtr you will find Globus just near that one temporary container on road and that is Velo Zurich, there it is free.
I m Swiss. I just laughed when he said 90 Francs hahaha. Luckily he found a "hotel", ..these are soo expensive, and in big cities like Zurich there are a lot of luxurious hotels, damn you don t wanna hear the price
I was just in Zurich and it was hella expensive, but everything was such good quality and I still feel like this video is exaggerating a bit. Eating out was indeed the biggest expense but a 72 hour Zurich pass was about €52 which included travel and entrance to museums. It is also worth noting that Switzerland has not experienced inflation the way that other countries have since the pandemic which means that you now get fewer CHF for the dollar or euro. Lol, I wouldn't have been spending almost €8 on a croissant.
As an American living in Zurich, I'm sorry to tell you that you totally blew your budget on breakfast. You would have been better off going to the supermarket and pack a picnic, some wine or beer, and enjoy it by the lake or in a park, since public drinking is allowed.
I live in Zurich, the Old Town is so expensive, very tourist orientated. You could have gone to Lidl supermarket just off the Bahnhoff and got a coffee for a franc!

Switzerland is called the Water castle of Europe for a reason. So many clean springs origin there, that end up into the biggest rivers crossing europe. You don't have to spend a single cent (or Rappen in Switzerland) on hydration, there's thousands of public fountains that produce some of the cleanest waters to drink in the world. Also also, no ordinary Swiss person goes through a day like yours, all those places are known to rip off tourists just for being in the old town and having a fancy name/location. Just like 99% of people in SF don't eat out at Beni Hama regularly ;)
@Christian Altorfer Our air is contaminated with carbon monoxide. That's because our industry and cities use a lot of combustion engines and fossile fules.
8 Dollars for a Croissants 😳, i live in switzerland since 2012 and where i live i can buy a Schoki gipfeli for 3.50 and is a good Backery. And 4 for a Cappuccino.
Yes, places like Switzerland, Norway, Belgium or Luxemburg are expensive BUT what I have never seen addressed in these types of videos is what salaries people have in these countries. Yes, the prices are high but for the people in those countries, it is not expensive because the salaries match the prices. A very important fact that never seems to be pointed out!!
In all of the countries you mention income taxes are between 39% - 55% - living here. Wealth is spread way more equally than the US for instance. Having a latte is more like a treat than a casual thing you walk with all day… prices in supermarkets are way more reasonable and I’m surprised that’s not included at all in this “challenge”
@@gouthamkgh income taxes at 70K in Switzerland would be 32% but indeed a relatively large part is paid by the employer, which could still yield around 23% net. For the other countries I mentioned that is significantly higher, but on the flip side Norway and Luxembourg have lower rates for mandatory health care so it’s har me to compare directly. Point being in the context of this video that - yes - wages are higher here but people should not think this locals simply live super large as they have more nominal income. Especially for those who think earn like double median… that’s where the 50ish % taxation kicks in. Point being, a day like pictured in the video is considered rare for most Europeans. And while I love Brett’s content, I mean… if you walk into an 1842 coffee shop you must realize that this is not gonna be your average drink? ;) And if you use a day pass on public transport that includes access to nearly all museums for $30 while the official day pass containing only transport itself is CHF 8.80 it all feels a little bit like, well, nice entertainment but also clickbait
When I had a flight to Dublin, I had to transition in Switzerland. Me and my buddy, travelling with me wanted to grab a bite, but the prices were outrageous. Even at MC Donald's a MC Menu would have cost about 20 Euros. We decided we weren't that hungry and didn't eat anything.
Man Europe just hits different. So much diversity and beauty , in such a short distance. I literally can drive 2-3 hours and be on a different country for a day. Thats mad . Love the content bro !!!
I was studied in Swiss before COVID, and I lived in Ferney, French which is 15 minutes bus away to Gevena, lots of swiss citizens are coming to Ferney to buy the groceries, because, same products in Swiss is 7 times or even higher than in French, for example, a 0.99 Euro lettuce sold 9CHF in Swiss.
I have NEVER seen a 9 chf lettuce in Switzerland. I've lived here my whole life. Plus yes, things are more expensive in Switzerland, but the quality is way higher too and better controlled!!! Quality comes at a price.
About charging tap water: I run a hotel/restaurant myself in Switzerland and we do charge as well. There's multiple reasons for that: first, as opposed to your own tap water at home, we include a service charge as it is served and often enriched with fruits and herbs. Second, water isn't free and we should be more aware of that fact that clean water is a rare good that we should treasure more. Third, and you might not believe that one, if you're not in Zurich, you can't charge a lot respectively the margin on products is so low that currently it is hard to get positive numbers. As before corona the average restaurant would make -5 to 2% net profit - so most restaurants were struggling a lot before corona already. And yeah, for the coffee you went to one of the most expensive places. Schober is a very good address for expensive premium stuff and I do know that it still struggles despite the high charges if it wasn't for some investors.
I agree with the fact that a restaurant should charge a service fee for water if it's served the way it is. However, I vastly prefer the system asian countries often have. Big water jugs on every table along with (thick washable) plastic cups that get periodically refilled. I'd gladly pay 2 bucks to use that, rather than have to pay 2 bucks to get a measly glass of water. Also, your second reason, about 'water not being free'. Bruh. a cubic metre of water, or 1000l, is around 2 bucks. A BIG glass of water (0.5l) costs 0.1 Rappen.
@@iFireender Well, everyone's their own cup of water, I suppose. And yeah, water might be cheap if you just look at the costs, but I'm refering to the idealistic costs - we're in a country where tapwater has best quality but there's nowhere near enough and there isn't, unfortunately, enough clear water to share with the world if anyone had access to it. Therefore, be more responsible with it, sensitive about saying "it's cheap" because for the bigger part of people in the world it means more than anything else.
@@Reiji77 That's an argument people often use, but in my opinion, it's nil. Where water is abundant, it is abundant; it won't dry up suddenly. Where water is rare, it's rare. Water doesn't get "used up", it can only get contaminated. Yeah, we have good wastewater facilities, but Switzerland having a lot of drinking water is a given; it's a fact of life, geographically influenced, just like how we have no direct ocean access. Don't get me wrong, of course, if you didn't put tap water at 2 bucks, you'd have to make the food 2 bucks more expensive.
For your info. The chocolate you bought is normally reserved for giving as a gift or for a special occasion. Swiss people usually eat Lindt or other well-known but very good less expensive chocolate that you can buy in the supermarket. Also let it be known that Mcdonalds is more expensive, but the employees actually get a decent wage, not to mention that the quality is very good compared to the cardboard burgers that you get in North America ( I am Canadian and have lived in Switzerland for over 20 years), Did you not find a youth hostel usually 50.00 per night, Advice - in Zurich there is a large shopping centre near the train station called Manor and they have a huge self-serve restaurant with a lot of variety, good portions and much less expensive than fast food joints, unless you find a Kebab restaurant which is better and cheaper than ZFC or Mcdo. Otherwise, I liked your video - next time come to Fribourg it's much smaller, quaint more free things to do and cheaper food and hotel options. It's 20 minutes west of Bern
Honestly, I stopped by Zurich and Geneva (before I had a channel) and the prices were mind blowing. Remember paying for 210 European for just 3nights under ground parking at a Geneva mall.crazy prices indeed
There are so many others lovely cities, town smaller than Zurich of course to visit in Switzerland. Obviously they all have their price variation depending where you go to as shops, coffee, restaurants etc. Definitely worth checking out all possibilities. I do agree hotels are so overpriced juste for one night one person. It's crazy but if you want a decent stay it's worth the price.
Tip: make your sandwich by yourselfe. Buy a bread in denner or coop ect.. (very good in switzerland) and the topping how you like, and you have a very good and cheap sandwich! Also we have shops you can buy food that is still good but is thrown away in the shops. You can save more than 50% of your money:)
@@CalvinCooke18 Not so much. In many countries saleries are a joke compared to the money and time you spent to qualify. For example I went a lot of years to university, got two degrees in a descent profession with best grades, while working in my profession almost all the time while studying, got a scholarship for high performance, won competitions and so on. Now my salary is below average with 3.400 Euro (average 4.966) before taxes and other contributions which equals 2.200 €/ 2610 USD, which is not exactly what I call a luxurious life.
All fun saving some money, untill you cross the swiss border and you het your car checked... They are very strict and will give you a enormously high ticket
I’m Swiss and if you are here for vacations, you should definitely buy a 1/2 fare pass for the trains. It is an annual pass, but I definitely think you can make a profit after 3 long rides.
I love the way you project your ideas Brett, with a gentle, intelligent, & comedic touch to it. It shows really that you are a master of your craft, otherwise known as The Boss. Keep up the good work, Boss !
I think you’d be more shocked to try this in Oslo, Norway which for many things is way more expensive. Also, in both countries it’s not that common to sit down in cafes and restaurants all day… considered a treat for most locals as well. Most simply grab something from a supermarket / grab’n’go which will still be expensive but half the prices mentioned
yes very true I paid 100 euros for a taxi in Oslo. and 20 euros for a burrito haha. I live in Zurich and I thought Oslo was crazy expensive. that says something
You way to off about the comparison R$1 is only $0.17 but $1 is 0.92 Swiss franc. Is not that big of a difference when comes to dollar and the francs. But when you have real and have to spend in dollars is a big of a difference. You can't compare both.

Also, you can get a regular hotel room for less than 60 swiss francs just 10 min. from the train station. Since Covid forced a lot of regular hotels to close, appartment companies bought them up, put a kitchenette into the rooms and now rents them as business appartments. There is no reception, the key is distributed by a machine upon entering the booking code. They are reasonably clean and you get a private room with your own toilet and shower.
Great video ! Well Zürich is definitely one of the most expensive town in Switzerland. You should go hiking in the mountains and take a sandwich with you.
Denner, Aldi and Lidl are the best food stores if you are on a budget. Fresh loaf of bread 2chf + 300gr Brie cheese 3chf, 400gr Salami 8chf, Beer starts from less than 1chf, 200gr chocolate from Denner brand 1,5-2chf. Or you can search for a Kebab cafe, where the lunch will be for 10chf. For cheaper accommodation you can buy a tent in Decathlone and go to camping)
Please try the chocolate bars from the store migros they much cheaper than the fancy chocolate you got and I like it way better. The bars from the stores migros , coop are the chocolate most Swiss people eat. The fancy ones are more to give as a present ore for the tourists 😉 Eating in a restaurant is even for Swiss people expensive and people with lower income hardly go to restaurants. If you stay longer in Switzerland check out the Sbb pass for tourist they have special offers but it’s only worth it if you travel around in Switzerland. You can reach basically every little village in Switzerland with public transportation.
I've been living in Switzerland for almost 4 years, when I was a student............I still remember how expensive it is in that country, but beautiful af......
So fun how you Pronounce Läderach and Feldschlösschen 😅😜 but yeah Zurich is really expensive. I live in the region Valais (where raclette comes from) and we by a raclette for 4.- and eat 3-4 of them... That's 12 or 16.- but never 22.- for one plate !!! That's insane!
Nothing in life is ever free ;-) You have to pay the price so that you can understand its true value. Enjoy the rest of your stay here & have a great time shopping for food in Migros, Coop or Denner!
Switzerland isn't just Zurich... I think that some tourists sadly forget that. Travel to Luzern, Bern or Thun (One of the most beautiful cities in Switzerland). Just saying. :)
And you can Eat at a Supermarket Restaurant: Coop Restaurant, Manor Restaurant, Migros Restaurant…. Coop and Manor is the best for Salat … Or in the Supermarket you can find Sandwiches and more for 50% off …
For your information, Switzerland prices are based on the average salary, which is different for every canton. In Neuchâtel, a Medium Menu Big Mac is around 13.90CHF and in Zurich I think it's like 14.50
One more vlogger who has visited Zürich as "Switzerland". My god... I mean, it really goes on my nerves. Is USA = NYC? Is UK = London? No. No. No. Pls. Don't be ignorant and if you really make any discovers of a country, then do it NOT on a superficial way!
Being a Swiss tourist in foreign countries is amazing. Everything is so cheap!
Which countries do you find expensive?
@@mathewlee5712 None lol
@@mathewlee5712 When I went to Japan I got told that Tokyo was expensive. Except for the tourist hotspots Tokyo was really cheap (at least from my Swiss perspective).

@@ridgefrost a 8$ croissant is clearly not an essential lmao. I live in Geneva which is the second most expensive city itw after Zürich and because both are in Switzerland there is just a tiny price difference between them and trust me you won’t see any local going to a bakery to eat a 8$ croissant and honestly, I never saw one…
I agree, no local average from the worker class eats these costy products... but i personally like to support local produce in the price which is sometimes also "out of budget" for most people i know, especially most "BIO" declared products. For many years, BIO was the standard but now it is a declaration for sustainable produce and fair salaries, which has a lot of tax for product assurance in there. It also gets costly if someone wants to import a product: he needs to make sure his products are up to the standards of a mass of declarations. Reserve space for importing the cargo (if Plane or Train, Harbor is kind of difficult except you would use the Rhein River or so and then you also got the delivery cargo truck stuff with a ton of VORSCHRIFTEN like max ton you can carry, max time of driving with min amount of rest, also remember that you need to pay all these people working there with your stuff also the bureau people and of course the massive amount of tax for making all this possible and safely reaches the destination. Oh and you need to pay a tax for the trash your product causes.
Aldi or Lidl can be so cheap indeed but also they are often within the lowest of declaration standards or even contain undeclared ingredients. Some have been found just recently to be too unhealthy for our product declarations. Sometimes i prefer it this way but it is also difficult as the moderate or lower class citizen. I appreciate though that theoretically everybody can have IV (insurance for people who are not able to work 100% like the average citizen because of a disease or broken leg etc) or/and Sozialhilfe (they help you get back on track more or less). They give you budgets so that you can be ok for the time you can't work. I personally experienced living on these (low) budgets and it can be very difficult. My budget for a day was about CHF 25.- so you can imagine what i had to eat back then 😂
But better than nothing 😀
@@iceeayt7455 Maybe only on special occasions. Gues, it is a special occasion for tourists.... I made a video in which I comment on this video by the way 😁

I live and work in Switzerland and have no kids to afford. I remember once I was eating a chocolate bar from one of the expensive brands in office, my 40/50-aged colleague noticed that and made some comment about its price. Well, when you are young and single, not considering having kids or properties, the salary will keep you quite a high quality of life. But when you have kids, it will be totally different...
i’m from switzerland and trust me 90 francs can get u through a week if u know how.. as a student i used to eat lunch for 1.90 francs everyday. you really learn how to manage when u live here and don’t have much money

Would mind sharing where do u usually buy the cheap meals? Vielen Dank!
@@TheRint9495 go to the coop (supermarket chain) restaurants. They charge 10 CHF for a medium sized plate and you can pile up food from the buffet on it as much as you can (one time passage), as it’s not charged by weight, as would usually be the case in such establishments
@@Rafaal03 Danke schön!
I can eat for free at work and take as much food with me as I can (bakery). If I only go to work and then home, of course I get by with 90 swiss francs a week.
Yes, but its hard. And you dont have a bed for that price
I live in switzerland. And i like watching this stuff is some time so funny couse he is going right for the most expensive stuff hehe.
Vloggers.. what do we expect.
Ech be au schwiizer!!!
I am Swiss too and I made a video commenting on this video 😃 ruclips.net/video/pTFu00fVj_k/видео.html It was so much fun, I think I will do more of those 😂
Hehehe I made a video in which I comment on his spending. With my recommendation, he could have saved about 20$!
As a swiss person i am still impressed by the prices in Zürich. Never would i ever spend 8 dollars on a choclat croissant thats just madness😅
I mean he couldnt have known that altstadt is a big scam. He should have asked lokals where the cheapest place is befor he made the vid
Bro go to migros and buy it for 2
The migros choc croissant is probably max 4 francs so... And it's pretty good.
but that won't do as a youtube click bait now! would it?@@alexisjauregui3523
Or just buy a normal croissant in Migrolino for just 1 CHF and it actually tastes above-average in my opinion.
Apart from the Hotel and Denner, all other places are amongst the most expensive you could have gone. It does show the general philosophy of Switzerland that you pay a lot for everything, but it results in excellent quality in all things
I partially agree, but not for "all things".
I get two main messages from that video. 1) Zurich is extremely expensive 2) Quality is there.
Usually when travelling to expensive locations it pays off to plan the trip before going. Maybe it would be better to sleep outside Zurich and take a local day pass for free travelling. Also to buy food in a grocery store and make your own sandwich seem to be a cheaper option then going to restaurants.
Zurich seems a worthwhile place to stop and visit as the Zurich airport is not far from the city. I would not use Zurich as a base camp during a vacation. It seems to be a city to work not to live or visit.
zurich is expensive, even for swiss people. however you did pick expensive things. we don't go to café schober for our every day coffee. we don't eat in the old town (ie tourist area). you can easily have a days worth of fun for under 100 bucks
Agree! I never spend $100 in a day 😅
Agreed 💯 % if you wanna lose your money easily go to niederdörfli (part of the old town)
Zurich is cheap compared to interlaken. Shitty plate of pasta for 25.- 🤣🤣🤣
From one Anna Lu to another Anna Lu … completely agree !
Yeah clearly it’s easy to do stuff for one day under 100 bucks !
Theres so many places for free to go look at. Museeum,parks,places to swimm. Food or coffee you can get at anyplace alot cheaper, like all of us swiss people. Buy a croissont in lidl for 1.40swiss francs and sit on any bank by the river for free,like we swiss people do. Like you go to the expensive places, and make people think in switzerland everything is expensive. You have electric scooters standing on every corner to rent for a cheap price. For 8.40 you can drive 24 hours with train,tram and bus truh whole zurich. Really you should have make some research before you came here. And in any store you can buy swiss chocolate 150gr for 60 cent . Like serious. Wtf.

if you target the most expensive cafe and shops of course you'll not make it. A coffee can be 4.5 and a croissant 2
I was thinking exactly the same…läderach, the oldest Konditorei von Zürich, that wasn’t really representative…
Right!
i think that was the plan because his follower want to hear what they expect... I`ts all about business...
Where?
You made several mistakes:
1) don’t go to the most touristy extensive cafe for coffee and a croissant. You could have got that for half at an equally nice place
2) the free bikes by Züri rollt are on the other side of the main station.
3) never ask people around the main station, they are not locals ;)
4) don’t go to the most overpriced chocolaté Shop , there is even outstanding chocolaté thats cheaper from confiseries…
5) a day ticket for the city of Züri is CHF 8.80 without a discount. Not 30. 30 is for the whole canton (state)! ;)
6) est at take always or go to a grocery shop. They have good cheap stuff for food. Eating in a restaurant is extremely expensive in CH. That’s only for special occasions not everyday
7) you were there when it was warm: swimming in the lake is free
8) often museums have a free day, usually Monday

For us who live here in Switzerland the prices are just normal. We just don't really go to a restaurant to eat.. well I'm speaking for me and my family. You really need a good budget to plan.
But you get to know your way to spend less money.
The prices in other countries are sometimes unreal to us. (We can't believe it)
And Zürich is also the most expensive city in Switzerland, so it also depense where you stay in Switzerland.

Tips from a local: buy subscriptions / combined tickets for cheaper public transport that will also either include boat / mountain railway trips and museum tickets, or at least make them a lot cheaper. Also, Switzerland is small and possesses a great public transportation system. The logical conclusion to that is to not take a hotel in Zurich, which is expensive even for locals, but in a smaller city or village nearby. Also, Switzerland is highly walkable. As long as you are healthy and motivated and possess a minimum of organizational skill, there is simply no need for a vehicle to discover any Swiss city once you are there. There are also a lot of free things to do, such as visiting our historical buildings (visiting gothic cathedrals, roman ruins etc. usually costs nothing) or local traditions and festivities. Next point: Eating out in a (fast food or any) restaurant is considered a treat rather than a normal everyday activity among average people. If you want to eat cheap without cooking yourself, go to Denner as shown in the video, or really any other grocery store and look for the “budget-brands” such as m-budget in the store called Migros or prix garantie in the store called Coop.
Was traveling around switzerland for a bit more than 2 weeks. It was highseason christmas/ new years. We purchased the swiss travel pass. Basel, zurich, bern, interlaken, laurerbrunnen, wengen and zermatt. I will never financially recover from this trip. But boy! It was so worth it. Dont come to switzerland on a budget or you will miss out on all the epic sights, places and amazing foods.
Interlaken is amazing. I was born here, grew up here and guess what… I‘m still here and not gonna leave. I understand why tourists come here. As a native I also have to say that some tourists spend too much that nature would give for free. If you want to go swim just pick a lake as we literally have two! But some people pay for a damn pool… 🥴 And also drinks. If you get normal water not sparkling or anything that’s a waste of money cause our tap water is DELICIOUS. 😁
By avoiding cafés / restaurants in the expensive parts of town (and choosing the right travel pass) you could have easily made the USD100/CHF90 go a lot further ;-)

There are super cute coffees just outside of the super center or the old town which are a lot more affordable.
Still, the "officially" cheapest coffee option in the city is rumored to be around 4.50
@@Rafaal03 Thinking expensive = quality is a fallacy. Quality = expensive but not automatically the other way around.

yup! he could have gotten much more stuff for those 100$ if he would have done some research or went to a tourist info desk to ask anything.
Exactly. Going to the city center in Zürich is not cheap BUT for less than 9 chf you have a pass for the whole 110 area, which covers most of the main places to see.

I would recommend you check out prices and venues (like the bikes) online or go to the tourist information centre. 4 minutes into the video and you, sorry, but completely misrepresent Zurich. Yes, Switzerland and especially is expensive. But you can get a espresso for 2Fr. A croissant in a grocery shop for 1.20. The bikes definitely existed at some point but locals have their own bike or use their publibike abo, so may seem oldschool to you but ask a tourist information centre. And also, who the hell told you that it was 30$ to go around the city for one day? It’s literally 8,80Fr for 24(!) full hours. You pay 27Fr for what it’s called a “ZurichCard”. With that you can travel throughout the whole canton, not only the city, so that means you can take a larger boat trip, go for free or with a massive discount to the museums, get 50% off a guided city tour. Even with the 8,80Fr ticket you can hop on small boat rides as long as you stay in the Parameter of the 110 zone (public transport of the city).
So I don’t know what your channel’s like but if it’s a travel vlog kind of thing, I would suggest doing research beforehand. If you don’t only want to get paid by RUclips for saying Switzerland’s expensive.
Guess what? We de know.
Love the comment.

I think he made a very good choice with Schober and Läderach, but these are both very expensive (even for us in Switzerland).

Hi Brett,
Im actually from Switzerland and I thought you would be interested to know that as a local, for cheap but good meals, I use an app called too good too go. It’s basically an app where food stores/restaurants can sign up and instead of throwing the leftovers, they sell them for really cheap prices at the end of the day! The only inconvenience is that you don’t really get to choose what you receive that much but I’ve only had great experiences with it!
Take care and hmu if your in gva!

With the exception of bread, milk, and probably some other stuff, Italian quality of the same foods will always be better than even the local Swiss ones
@@Swooshpragler In your logic, Italian food is inferior to French food. It is fine with me if you think that way. For me, I don't compare Swiss and Italian food based on Italian taste or palate.
@@lthiem101 This isn't subjective. Many Italian foods are superior to the Swiss. Some aren't. Some French foods are superior to the Italian and way superior to the Swiss. Others aren't. This isn't based on palate. If you travel the world and try out different local foods you and literally 99.9% of the people who also did, will agree with you.
But hey, maybe you're part of that 0.1% that has broken taste buds. Either way glad for you that you got to enjoy Swiss local food. Peace
Ahh Switzerland was my favorite place on my Europe backpacking trip! I was there for 26 days, saw 7 cities and spent just about 1900$ (food, hostels, gondola rides, transportation). Its definitely a very expensive country but its very possible to see it on a budget! I made a video of my budget break down on my page :)

Thanks for the feedback 😁
so jinx travels
How
The free bikes still exist bro - and the best free thing: swimming in the lake and the river
The Züri Rollt place is infront of the "Globus" store usually they have free bikes there. You were on the wrong side of the trainstation :)
You are wrong side of train station to look for Zuri rollt, just opposite of that is Bahnhofstrasse and about 100 mtr you will find Globus just near that one temporary container on road and that is Velo Zurich, there it is free.
I m Swiss. I just laughed when he said 90 Francs hahaha. Luckily he found a "hotel", ..these are soo expensive, and in big cities like Zurich there are a lot of luxurious hotels, damn you don t wanna hear the price
I was just in Zurich and it was hella expensive, but everything was such good quality and I still feel like this video is exaggerating a bit. Eating out was indeed the biggest expense but a 72 hour Zurich pass was about €52 which included travel and entrance to museums. It is also worth noting that Switzerland has not experienced inflation the way that other countries have since the pandemic which means that you now get fewer CHF for the dollar or euro. Lol, I wouldn't have been spending almost €8 on a croissant.
In a grocerie store or a bakery you can buy a croissant for 1-2 CHF
As an American living in Zurich, I'm sorry to tell you that you totally blew your budget on breakfast. You would have been better off going to the supermarket and pack a picnic, some wine or beer, and enjoy it by the lake or in a park, since public drinking is allowed.
😂
Yeah I also thought he paid far too much for the coffee and croissant
I live in Zurich, the Old Town is so expensive, very tourist orientated. You could have gone to Lidl supermarket just off the Bahnhoff and got a coffee for a franc!
You went to the most exclusive shops here in Zürich ofc everything is so expensive 😂
The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the World. This is still a time to invest in Gold, silver, digital currencies and Forex market
The Forex market is by far the biggest and most popular market in the world traded globally by large number of individuals and organizations
I keep seeing lot's of people testifying about how they make money investing in Forex, and I wonder why I keep loosing. Can anyone help me out or at least advice me on what to do
All you need as a beginner to make good profit from cryptocurrency is a professional trader who will guide you through trade or trade on your behalf, else you may keep making losses
Options trading is the future investment, investing in it will be the wisest thing to do especially with the current rise
Forex/bitcoin trading is one good way of
paying bills which also create opportunity for crypto believers
🤨🤗Thank you for cementing the prejudices about Switzerland. If you know how and where, it's much cheaper.
Switzerland is called the Water castle of Europe for a reason. So many clean springs origin there, that end up into the biggest rivers crossing europe. You don't have to spend a single cent (or Rappen in Switzerland) on hydration, there's thousands of public fountains that produce some of the cleanest waters to drink in the world.
Also also, no ordinary Swiss person goes through a day like yours, all those places are known to rip off tourists just for being in the old town and having a fancy name/location. Just like 99% of people in SF don't eat out at Beni Hama regularly ;)
@Christian Altorfer
Our air is contaminated with carbon monoxide.
That's because our industry and cities use a lot of combustion engines and fossile fules.
@Christian Altorfer shut your leftist/green propaganda bs, do some factual research, check out the statistics and read the studies.
8 Dollars for a Croissants 😳, i live in switzerland since 2012 and where i live i can buy a Schoki gipfeli for 3.50 and is a good Backery. And 4 for a Cappuccino.
Yes, places like Switzerland, Norway, Belgium or Luxemburg are expensive BUT what I have never seen addressed in these types of videos is what salaries people have in these countries. Yes, the prices are high but for the people in those countries, it is not expensive because the salaries match the prices. A very important fact that never seems to be pointed out!!
In all of the countries you mention income taxes are between 39% - 55% - living here. Wealth is spread way more equally than the US for instance. Having a latte is more like a treat than a casual thing you walk with all day… prices in supermarkets are way more reasonable and I’m surprised that’s not included at all in this “challenge”
The Swiss taxes are around 15-20% and the median salary is about 70k CHF iirc.
@@gouthamkgh income taxes at 70K in Switzerland would be 32% but indeed a relatively large part is paid by the employer, which could still yield around 23% net. For the other countries I mentioned that is significantly higher, but on the flip side Norway and Luxembourg have lower rates for mandatory health care so it’s har me to compare directly. Point being in the context of this video that - yes - wages are higher here but people should not think this locals simply live super large as they have more nominal income. Especially for those who think earn like double median… that’s where the 50ish % taxation kicks in. Point being, a day like pictured in the video is considered rare for most Europeans. And while I love Brett’s content, I mean… if you walk into an 1842 coffee shop you must realize that this is not gonna be your average drink? ;) And if you use a day pass on public transport that includes access to nearly all museums for $30 while the official day pass containing only transport itself is CHF 8.80 it all feels a little bit like, well, nice entertainment but also clickbait
@@therealsander I have 5 % with even more income - depending on the place you live :) fantastic system.
@@therealsander it’s not 32% at 7ok SFR it’s much lower. Depending on the Kanton where you live.
When I had a flight to Dublin, I had to transition in Switzerland. Me and my buddy, travelling with me wanted to grab a bite, but the prices were outrageous. Even at MC Donald's a MC Menu would have cost about 20 Euros. We decided we weren't that hungry and didn't eat anything.
In Switzerland we say "bisch hald en Geringverdiener" and i think its beautyfull
For a decent cheap lunch in Zurich Center i always went to the Migros Restaurant in Löwenstrasse and nowhere else
😁

And if you live like in geneva you can literraly take the city bus to france
I was studied in Swiss before COVID, and I lived in Ferney, French which is 15 minutes bus away to Gevena, lots of swiss citizens are coming to Ferney to buy the groceries, because, same products in Swiss is 7 times or even higher than in French, for example, a 0.99 Euro lettuce sold 9CHF in Swiss.
I have NEVER seen a 9 chf lettuce in Switzerland. I've lived here my whole life. Plus yes, things are more expensive in Switzerland, but the quality is way higher too and better controlled!!! Quality comes at a price.
About charging tap water: I run a hotel/restaurant myself in Switzerland and we do charge as well. There's multiple reasons for that: first, as opposed to your own tap water at home, we include a service charge as it is served and often enriched with fruits and herbs. Second, water isn't free and we should be more aware of that fact that clean water is a rare good that we should treasure more. Third, and you might not believe that one, if you're not in Zurich, you can't charge a lot respectively the margin on products is so low that currently it is hard to get positive numbers. As before corona the average restaurant would make -5 to 2% net profit - so most restaurants were struggling a lot before corona already.
And yeah, for the coffee you went to one of the most expensive places. Schober is a very good address for expensive premium stuff and I do know that it still struggles despite the high charges if it wasn't for some investors.
Excellent points... I agree with all of them!
I agree with the fact that a restaurant should charge a service fee for water if it's served the way it is.
However, I vastly prefer the system asian countries often have. Big water jugs on every table along with (thick washable) plastic cups that get periodically refilled. I'd gladly pay 2 bucks to use that, rather than have to pay 2 bucks to get a measly glass of water.
Also, your second reason, about 'water not being free'. Bruh. a cubic metre of water, or 1000l, is around 2 bucks. A BIG glass of water (0.5l) costs 0.1 Rappen.
@@iFireender Well, everyone's their own cup of water, I suppose. And yeah, water might be cheap if you just look at the costs, but I'm refering to the idealistic costs - we're in a country where tapwater has best quality but there's nowhere near enough and there isn't, unfortunately, enough clear water to share with the world if anyone had access to it. Therefore, be more responsible with it, sensitive about saying "it's cheap" because for the bigger part of people in the world it means more than anything else.
@@Reiji77 That's an argument people often use, but in my opinion, it's nil. Where water is abundant, it is abundant; it won't dry up suddenly. Where water is rare, it's rare.
Water doesn't get "used up", it can only get contaminated. Yeah, we have good wastewater facilities, but Switzerland having a lot of drinking water is a given; it's a fact of life, geographically influenced, just like how we have no direct ocean access.
Don't get me wrong, of course, if you didn't put tap water at 2 bucks, you'd have to make the food 2 bucks more expensive.
You ask for a glass and fill it at the fountain? Come on man...
For your info. The chocolate you bought is normally reserved for giving as a gift or for a special occasion. Swiss people usually eat Lindt or other well-known but very good less expensive chocolate that you can buy in the supermarket. Also let it be known that Mcdonalds is more expensive, but the employees actually get a decent wage, not to mention that the quality is very good compared to the cardboard burgers that you get in North America ( I am Canadian and have lived in Switzerland for over 20 years), Did you not find a youth hostel usually 50.00 per night, Advice - in Zurich there is a large shopping centre near the train station called Manor and they have a huge self-serve restaurant with a lot of variety, good portions and much less expensive than fast food joints, unless you find a Kebab restaurant which is better and cheaper than ZFC or Mcdo. Otherwise, I liked your video - next time come to Fribourg it's much smaller, quaint more free things to do and cheaper food and hotel options. It's 20 minutes west of Bern
The Manor on Zurich Bahnhofstrasse closed a year ago.
zürich is way better than freiburg
I live in bern, switzerland and even for me zurich is crazy expensive
Honestly, I stopped by Zurich and Geneva (before I had a channel) and the prices were mind blowing. Remember paying for 210 European for just 3nights under ground parking at a Geneva mall.crazy prices indeed
Sheesh thats insane
Expensive for travel, but once you realize minimum wage in Geneva is ~4200 a month, it’s really not that bad.
@@Intrepidity Agreed but could you put in the tax rates in the equation?
@@Ducanralf with 4,2k per month you really don't pay much taxes.
@@Ducanralf They are about the same.
There are so many others lovely cities, town smaller than Zurich of course to visit in Switzerland. Obviously they all have their price variation depending where you go to as shops, coffee, restaurants etc. Definitely worth checking out all possibilities. I do agree hotels are so overpriced juste for one night one person. It's crazy but if you want a decent stay it's worth the price.
Zürich > anywhere else in swiz
Tip: make your sandwich by yourselfe. Buy a bread in denner or coop ect.. (very good in switzerland) and the topping how you like, and you have a very good and cheap sandwich! Also we have shops you can buy food that is still good but is thrown away in the shops. You can save more than 50% of your money:)

@@CalvinCooke18 Not so much. In many countries saleries are a joke compared to the money and time you spent to qualify. For example I went a lot of years to university, got two degrees in a descent profession with best grades, while working in my profession almost all the time while studying, got a scholarship for high performance, won competitions and so on. Now my salary is below average with 3.400 Euro (average 4.966) before taxes and other contributions which equals 2.200 €/ 2610 USD, which is not exactly what I call a luxurious life.

I think you’d be more shocked to try this in Oslo, Norway which for many things is way more expensive. Also, in both countries it’s not that common to sit down in cafes and restaurants all day… considered a treat for most locals as well. Most simply grab something from a supermarket / grab’n’go which will still be expensive but half the prices mentioned
Or Copenhagen!
yes very true I paid 100 euros for a taxi in Oslo. and 20 euros for a burrito haha. I live in Zurich and I thought Oslo was crazy expensive. that says something
Yup. Agree
Oslo isn’t more expensive than Zurich
That's how it feels when I go to the US from Brazil and have to pay five times in my local currency. R$5,00 - 1U$
You way to off about the comparison R$1 is only $0.17 but $1 is 0.92 Swiss franc. Is not that big of a difference when comes to dollar and the francs. But when you have real and have to spend in dollars is a big of a difference. You can't compare both.

Also, you can get a regular hotel room for less than 60 swiss francs just 10 min. from the train station. Since Covid forced a lot of regular hotels to close, appartment companies bought them up, put a kitchenette into the rooms and now rents them as business appartments. There is no reception, the key is distributed by a machine upon entering the booking code. They are reasonably clean and you get a private room with your own toilet and shower.
Where do you find that
Great video ! Well Zürich is definitely one of the most expensive town in Switzerland. You should go hiking in the mountains and take a sandwich with you.

Please try the chocolate bars from the store migros they much cheaper than the fancy chocolate you got and I like it way better.
The bars from the stores migros , coop are the chocolate most Swiss people eat. The fancy ones are more to give as a present ore for the tourists 😉
Eating in a restaurant is even for Swiss people expensive and people with lower income hardly go to restaurants.
If you stay longer in Switzerland check out the Sbb pass for tourist they have special offers but it’s only worth it if you travel around in Switzerland. You can reach basically every little village in Switzerland with public transportation.
