I’ve been to Switzerland in April this year for the first time. It was a travel gift which I was really excited! Switzerland is really beautiful and stunning! I loved it. Going back next year with friends. We didn’t do any hiking but we went up to mountaintop using cable cars. I recommend to buy tickets from online ahead of time if you’re planning to go on cable cars as it’ll save you time from queuing. We tried fundue on our last day. Thanks for sharing 😊

Denner is also sometimes falsly cheap where some ites are cheaper but some others are the same price if not more expensive than in other supermarkets.

Exploring new countries is such a rewarding experience! For first-time travelers, I'd recommend considering destinations that offer a mix of cultural richness and natural beauty. Personally, I've been fortunate to travel to over 10 countries thanks to careful budgeting and smart investments.I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 2 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future.

Alright, speaking in general terms, investing requires a good amount of knowledge. That's why it's essential to have a solid support system like a financial counselor, especially when picking out assets. I've been working with Regina Louise Collaro, who is an investment advisor at a registered wealth management company. I can't recommend her enough; my financial journey has been fantastic thanks to her. She's quite well-known for her services, and she helped me achieve financial stability through investments. Now, I benefit from her passive income strategies every month. So, I'd strongly suggest finding a reliable investment advisor for yourself..

Who isn't just wise but has all it takes to handle an investment and is good at what she does..

I am currently here by way of train to Lucerne (Luzern) and we rented a car at the Europcar at the Radisson Hotel close tot he train station. So far I haven't needed any type of card to travel on the Highways...? According to the comments I should watch out for speed traps too. Great advice on getting a hotel/room with a kitchen. Every breakfast, lunch and dinner has been 60-80CHF (multiply by 1.2USD) and honestly the food hasn't been that great. Luckily we booked at Apart Holiday (guest pass included too!) and our apartment does have a full kitchen (minus an oven) and there is a resort shop across the street with basic groceries. Also thank you for mentioning the Eururail pass for discounts. Titlis does mention it on their website. Just an example of lift prices, it was 43 CHF PER PERSON to go up to Stoos. That's with 10% off with the guest pass. It would have been 25% off if we knew we could have shown our Eurorail pass! Thank you again for another great video!

Tip 2 - universal "world" travel power adapters do not usually include Switzerland type J and Italy type L. Fortunately Amazon offers both.

Hi, we’re coming from Paris and will take a train to go to Zurich ( this is our first time) we will stay there for 3 nights 4 days we have 2 adults and middle age children. Will u recommend to buy a train pass for just staying there for a few days? Because it is kids free but still not cheap for the 3 days pass. Pls. Help. Thanks

Thank you so much for your amazing video.. I have one question, Can I book Uber ride from airport to reach my destination? I mean does Uber work in Switzerland? because I have heard that in Switzerland, they have their own taxi system? Kindly clear my doubts. Thank you.

Your tips will save me a bunch in my upcoming 17 hours layover in Zurich. I plan to rent a car, get a vignette card, drive to Zurich. Lucerne is just an hour drive away from Zurich, if I am ahead in hitting the few select spots in Zurich, I may even drive to Lucerne. Thank you for your fast and comprehensive tips.

As a local I can tell you I‘d NEVER rent a car for a 17 hrs layover in Zurich! By train it takes you 10 stressfree minutes from the airport to Zurich main station. From there you reach Lucerne within 40-50 minutes by train. Trust me, use public transportation!

Thank you Markus, I will take the public transport instead. I initially thought I had such a short time frame, if I was to pop to many places a car would be the best tool to help me shorten travel time. What do you think of a motorized scooter, do you think it is a better idea than a car?

@@AlfordLau Honestly speaking I think that‘s even worse… 🤦🏻‍♂️ …trains would guarantee you trips with the opportunity to enjoy the landscape, they are absolutely safe, reliable, on time and they take you right to the centers of Zurich or Lucerne. Apart from that, trains between Zurich and Lucerne run every 20-30 minutes.

Great video! Funny story - in Interlaken, we took the cable car up to Harder Kulm but didn’t check to see if we got round trip tickets or one way and there were no operators at the top to let us know if our tickets would work to go back down. So we bought another set of tickets, only to realize later that our original tickets had two opposite arrows, we figured out meant 2-way 😅 They would not give me a refund on the one way ticket down. My Asianness was not happy 🤣🤣 We also didn’t realize one of the trains was private and the security guard (a cute young lady in braided pig tails 😜) wouldn’t let us just get off on the next stop (she said buy tickets or go to jail 🥴) so we had to switch plans and go to Jungfrau that day. It ended up being a perfect day to go but it could’ve been awful.

You mentioned the tourist tax when you arrive. Is this everywhere in Switzerland or only in Zurich?
