    Excellent advice! Used your advice in Zurich and Colmar this past December and was excellent! Loved it so much we going to Chamonix in 2025 and plan some of these day trips as well

    Would love to see a video of day trips from Basel to include places like Freiburg and/or Colmar if you ever have been there.

    Thanks for all the tips ! Is the Leman Pass good for all these rides ? And also how pet friendly are the boats ?

    Thank you. We are using Montreux as a hub later in the week. We will have a car. I am still deciding what to do on the Saturday and Sunday. It may be weather dependent.

    Is it best to see lavaux vineyard fields from Lausanne or Montreaux?😊 You mentioned a metro from Lausanne? And a small express train from montreaux?

    Hi! I plan to pre-purchase a train ticket from Geneva to Germany. What do you think of the site Rail Europe?

    Just booked again for this December, mostly skiing but got 2 days in Geneva. Choices between Montreaux, Annecy, and Gruyère. This past Christmas we were in Zurich and did a day trip to Colmar. Annecy too similar?

    Hi guys, love your videos. I'm traveling to Geneva from Canada in early May. Looking to visit Domodossola from Geneva for the day. I'm so confused by the train schedules. Do you have a video or resource to help me book this? Thanks. 😊

    • @TheTravelingSwiss
      @TheTravelingSwiss  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hi! I would download the SBB app. There are a few direct trains (direction Milan) from Geneve Cornavin (main station) to Domodossola. This will be a 2 hr 40 minute ride in each direction though

    If I get a Swizz Schengen Visa, will I be able to visit Chamonix as this is not in Switzerland? I am from South Africa

    Hey loved the vid..
    As a Brit, visiting Geneva with my wife on 21st December, would you recommend booking with a tour company to visit Chamonix, do the cable cars up the mountain etc…
    Or would you recommend getting the bus ourselves and ‘free styling’ it? The tour company seems to have some terrible reviews and seems SUPER expensive. We are also cautious about booking it and the weather cancelling the cable cars etc.
    I’m also wondering about sledging as opposed to skiing?
    If there’s anything or anywhere else you’d recommend for a December visit, please do tell!
    Any help would be MASSIVELY appreciated.

    • @TheTravelingSwiss

      I would just book the bus tranfers in advance. Get your guide has a lot of options which are just bus transfer + ticket packages which are a great option. I don't think a full tour would be needed, Chamonix is quite easy to navigate in my opinion!

    Thanks for the tips. I just wish Alexis would not talk that fast
