Thanks verykiasu2010! Yes Jungfrau is a must I heard, anything else there that is a must-see?

if this is your first Swiss trip, take in a few major points first like Interlaken, Jungfrau, Grindelwald, Luzern, Bern ..... more than enough in one trip

one will never be tired of Swiss ....

True, true, I only went to Zurich for work purposes but have always wanted to go for leisure and finally found the time to do so as a family. Will check out the rest of the places you suggested. Tks

Tks [/quote]during summer, you can take the Golden Circle (something like that, done that many years back) - cruise from the Luzern cruise terminal, then take the world most steeply inclined rail up to Mt Pilatus, then take cable car down to Luzern, along the way the kids will have fun with many playgrounds from Mt Pilatus down after having picnic on top of Mt Pilatus .... hmmm really feel like going back

Question:


Does anyone have any place to recommend for a one month stay in central Switzerland?

Whenever we are planning for traveling any country with our family and specially with kids then we have to make sure all things were perfect from our flights tickets booking to accommodation, convenience and many basic things which we required there like clothes according to weather there. Switzerland’s climate is ideal, with no excessive heat, cold or humidity which is best thing for kids. It has one of the lowest crime rates of all industrialized countries again which is best in all manner. Switzerland is such a very beautiful country.

Hi Buddy, can share with me your itinerary? Am thinking of going either there or Chamonix in June... don't know where one is better?

Hi buddy,

Let me dig for my softcopy, if not gotta scan in the hardcopy for you...just gotta be patient with me for a while.....

Hi Buddy, managed to dig out my age-old album and have the itinerary attached inside plus diary of each day. Those were the days when I could afford to be so neat-freak.

Already PM-ed you the itinerary in 4 parts of the photos I took of the itinerary, hope you can see them clearly.

Have a great holiday! Weather at that time I went, July was hot but not humid...[/quote]Hi can Pm me the itinerary as well thinking of going next year free and easy. thanks.

For the pass few days I was researching about going to Switzerland for a Holiday....next year during June 2014


Seem that Switzerland is a wonderful country to visit....

Transited in Switzerland 15 years ago when going to Austria for work...
So did not really get to tour this country...

After much research using Guide Books /Internet/youtube video clips ...I have a clearer picture on how to make my Switzerland holiday fun and relaxing. :rahrah:

Will just cover the Centre of Switzerland Area- Zurich/Lucerne/Interlaken/ Montreux/Geneva/Paris

A)In Lucerne will cover Mt Titlis /city tour (plan to stay 2 nights)
B)Then proceed to Interlaken (stay 3 nights) to cover
a)Jangfraujoch -to enjoy the Snow Fun activities up the Alps -skiing, snowtubing, Zip Flying ,Paragliding
b)River Rides

C)Then proceed to Montreux -to take the Chocolate Train Ride...(1 night)
D)Leave Switzerland to Paris by TGV

After calculation I think I will get a Swiss Half Fare Care when I arrived in Zurich.

And also a Family Card so that my younger Daughter will travel for free in Switzerland. My Elder Daughter will use the Swiss Youth Card .

This is my planning for now...still researching since I have more than 9 months to prepare this trip.... :xedfingers:

Hi,


I am thinking of going to Switzerland next year for 10 days with 2A2C. We have no intention to drive and thinking of taking public transport or join some tour when reach there.

Can you advise me should i go 8 days or 10 days and also the itinerary? Or is there any members here who have done F&E before and I can follow your itinerary or any blog for me to read? I know nothing about Switzerland. I would love to see snow.

Many thanks.
