... Read moreWhen planning a day trip in Switzerland, using the Swiss Travel Pass or the SBB Saver Day Pass really pays off as it covers unlimited train travel and even ferry rides like the popular route from Interlaken Ost to Iseltwald. I personally found taking the ferry across Lake Brienz not only convenient but incredibly scenic, adding a relaxing water adventure to the trip. For those interested in combining city exploration and nature, the route from Zurich HB to Bern and Interlaken offers a great balance. Bern’s Old Town and the Bear Pit are charming and culturally enriching stops, while Interlaken provides stunning mountain views and outdoor activities like paragliding—bookable easily online for a thrilling experience. If you prefer a mix of urban and lakeside beauty, the route via Lucerne to Lugano is perfect. Lucerne’s iconic Chapel Bridge and the Mannliturm Tower provide breathtaking views, and Lugano’s Italian-influenced cuisine and picturesque streets make for a delightful day. To truly maximize your experience, plan your connections carefully using the SBB mobile app for real-time train schedules, and don’t shy away from hopping on local buses or ferries included in your pass. This way, you cover more ground without stressing over tickets or timings. Whether it’s the mountain peaks of Grindelwald or the calm waters of Lake Brienz, Switzerland’s transport network makes day trips a breeze and a memorable adventure.

Here’s how I’d spend one perfect day in Geneva ⛲️
- Morning high-speed train from Gare de Lyon (Paris) to Geneva station (around 3hr 11min). Thoughts: Could’ve taken a short flight but the high speed train is a pretty solid, affordable substitute. You’ll have to move all the luggage around though! - Leave luggage at Ibis Geneve Centre Nations

Your quick guide to exploring the Swiss Alps🇨🇭🏔️
Day 1 To cut travel time by ~1hr from Zermatt to Interlaken, we took the Lotschberg car train. (Yes, a train that carries your car)This itself was already an experience! We made a stop at Blausee on the way to Interlaken. 💭 Not really a must visit, so I wouldn’t go out of your way for it. W
