I have visited Switzerland most years since 1971. Since 1972 I have always bought a Swiss Travel Pass. Re excursions up mountains, I am one of those who rate Gornergrat at number one.. It is tremendous value for money.. A certain line near Interlaken is not value for the very high prices charged. (You only get 25% discount with the Swiss Travel Pass.)
Ahhh that’s is so amazing to hear, it seems you love Switzerland as do we but definitely haven’t visited as much as you. Ahh we double checked the website and it states you definitely get 50% with a Swiss travel pass on the Gornergrat. Which train are you referring to for 25% please?
@@TandAJAdventures 50% is the normal discount rate for holders of the Swiss Travel Pass on mountain lines, and that is the discount which I know I get when going up to the magnificent Gornergrat. At peak times I would pay about 50 Franks. If I go up to the ''Top Rip-Off of Europe' I would currently be paying with an STP (I think) 160 Franks for a ride much of which is in tunnel. ('Rip-Off' is a British-English phrase for a price which is far too high for the g0ods or services you get in return.)
@@Fan652w ahh I see i believe you are talking about the Jungfrau train line. Yes absolutely that is the only train you don’t get 50% off its usually 25% and you can get cheap deals for going first thing in the morning. And yes you are right rip off is the British phrase to use 😂
Great itinerary. Lose the day in Lichtenchtein, add a day roaming around the Lavaux region (Epesses/Cully for example). Zermatt is a must do, the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise experience is a vastly superior experience than Top of Europe Jungfrau imo. The MOB train from Montreux to Zweisimmen/Gstaadt is greatly underrated. This is coming from a Swiss guy.
Thank you, we agree with you on that one. Zermatt Gornergrat is truly an experience we will cherish for a long time. We did wonder if we should have done Lichtenstein on a different trip rather than combining it with Switzerland. There is so much to do in Switzerland, we keep running out of time ☺️
Thank you so much for sharing!! I am planning a trip for 2025, and you covered all the places I want to go .. and more!!! Unfortunately, I only have 8 days in Switzerland, but you helped me figure out how to make the most of it!! Thanks again!
We are so happy to read this comment and this is the reason why we make these video. We really appreciate this feedback especially being a small channel. It means a lot ❤️☺️ Have the best trip ❤️
Really appreciated your time and efforts doing this videos. Thank you very much! Question: Are those trains and funiculars stroller friendly? We’re bring our handicapped son in stroller.
@@ednalula2980 you’re very welcome! Answer to your question, all trains are great with big doors and wheelchair/stroller friendly. I would advice to inform the train station people in advance they might be able to support you if needed. The only ones you might have a problem with are the ones in Grindelwald, Lautbrunnen because these trains are packed during peak season. Funiculars for most places were big in size especially the jungfrau one was massive. Adelboden funicular was small too but I am sure you could ask for assistance! ☺️
@@ednalula2980 you’re very welcome ☺️ Do have a look at our instagram page, our stories might help you get a better picture of the funiculars and places to avoid or places to visit in Switzerland ☺️
Hello, we visited end of August and first week of September. It does get a little chilly in the evening depending on where you go. If you stick with the cities like Basel or Zurich it won’t be chilly but in the mountains yes it does ☺️
Really good video! I’m going to use this for my upcoming trip this summer . Can you please let me know the places you actually stayed the night? Thank you! 😊
@@TandAJAdventures Hi! You were able to only stay in two villages to visit all these places by train (and fo back to your hotel the same day)? I thought I had to book a different hotel for each village hehe,
Love this itinerary. Can I make Zurich and Geneva as my main stays to book hotels and the rest can be taken as day trips? I fly into Zurich and fly out of Geneva so wanted to see where I should book stays to make as much of this itinerary as possible through the train rides.
Thank you for your lovely comments. You can absolutely make Zurich your main stay because Zurich has great transport links. We’ll all of Switzerland has great transport links but an advantage with Zurich is it’s location and how close it is to Lucerne and Interlaken. Geneva is good too but it’s a bit far, if you want to explore Montreux and Geneva then it’s a good location to stay. ☺️ Either way be prepared for early morning wake up calls as you will need to be getting a train earlier in the morning to make most of your Swiss travel pass.
Hi T and AJ, love your Switzerland video so well explained. Please help me to decide we are family of four visiting from California this May 31st for 8 days. We are planning to rent a car having little one’s, in this case is it worth getting full amount tickets for the attractions or buy travel pass alone. Or do both rent a car and also buy the travel pass will there be any difference. Thank you and +1 subscriber 😊
Hello, Thank you for lovely words. ☺️ Ahh that sounds amazing, I should however mentioned that Swiss Travel pass is free for under 18’s as long as they are travelling with adults who have a Swiss travel pass. I wouldn’t recommend buying a Swiss travel pass if you are going to be driving, maybe a half fare card so you get 50% off attractions and tickets? It’s a tough question, personally if I was renting a car and that can be expensive in Switzerland, I wouldn’t then get a Swiss travel pass. But if you do end up buying one then do use this link as you do get to cancel up to 24 hours before your trip. ☺️ Link: gyg.me/TknlzK4o
Hello, Thank you for your lovely comment. For the first week we stayed in Basel to save money on hotels, we then stayed in Zermatt for two nights and then montreux for the rest
You traveled from Basel? How long were the average train rides? It’s so far north. I am planning a trip end of July for 10 days and my husband doesn’t like jumping hotels so looking for a good central lactation-maybe grindelwald? Will end in Montreux. Loved your video-thanks for posting!!!
Yes, that’s right! To save money we stayed in Basel for a week. We were waking up early morning for train rides. With the Swiss travel pass (link is in our bio and pinned in comments) all train rides and transportation is included. However, if you want a central location we would recommend Interlaken. Please bear in mind that Interlaken is very expensive.
Thank you, I am in the process of creating an itinerary. It’s still not finished yet: Unfortunately the only other way you will know the every place we visited is by writing down the names from the video. I will let you know once an itinerary is made. ☺️
Hi. your video si amazing ❤and lots of info. What is your recommendation for accommodation when visiting the places you have mentioned in the video. I would Love to see the places you have been, did you book your stay in 1 place as your base ? My husband and I are planning to visit Switzerland on September for 2 weeks this year,I will be delighted to hear from you. And of course we are planning to purchase the Swiss Travel Pass as per your recommendation.
Thank you for your lovely comment. We stayed in Basel for one week and travelled out every morning. We then stayed in Zermatt for two nights and Montreux for 4 nights ☺️
Apologies, I was trying to cram everything in 30 minutes as it was a very long video. I am due to visit Switzerland this year and will be making more video so happy to slow down in my future videos! Thank you for the advice ☺️
