Thanks for everyone who voted on IG for this video! Let me know if there is anything else you'd like to see! ♥
It’s so cool that to be connected to all those wonderful places so close by. Traveling by train is such a great way to experience and explore a place. Love those lights in that village and the waterfalls looked amazing! Thanks for sharing. I cannot wait to visit!
Great day trips and advice. I love how efficient the Swiss trains are! Thanks for sharing x
very informative video, and I say that as a Swiss myself! I would have added some more to this list, but for first-timers in Switzerland this is a great guide to help you navigate around
I live in Horgen and I love Rapperswil aswell, especially taking the sunset ship and eating dinner there! For people who want to visit a fun museum, I definitely recommend Winterthur too: It's very close to the city and the Technorama is not only a paradise for nerds, but people looking for cool aesthetics, adventurers and families ✌🏻
Womderful! So much info! Thank you guys!
thanks for this video guys,,this is what ive been looking for ! omg thank you!!!
Thank you so much for these great day trip ideas! Me and my family are heading there this summer and these ideas are so helpful.
Wonderful tips once again! Love it!
As a dane, who is visiting Switzerland for the first here in october, i've been watching your videos. Thanks for inspiration and keep up the good work.
I have studied in Zurich and basicly travel around Swiss, absolutely my second home ..Great videos guys
ooo train trip! Just finished my Amtrak US itinerary, getting enticed to put together one in Europe! 3:50 was interesting, and loved the night lights at 7:40! Thanks for putting this together!
Wow!! the waterfalls are amazing!!!!!!

Great work! Your tips for traveling to Switzerland are always so great. If we visit, we shall seek you two out!!
So pretty cool Zurich and very beautiful as well. You guys just give a very helpful and informative content
Appreciate the info. So much to think about when visiting Switzerland. I think Appenzel is the place I want to do the most.
This video is really a great help for first time traveler(s) to switzerland😊 Thanks
I have always thought of living this train experience in Switzerland one day but not yet had the opportunity, I hope to do so in the near future, thanks for this valuable video
I have another recommendation, that is, Konstanz. You can enjoy the beauty of Bodensee. I strongly recommend taking a boat to Meersburg from Konstanz. It is a nice small town to have a cup of coffee.
Thank you very much for the hour away day trips from Zurich. I think I will include in my itinerary the Rhine Falls ....
Very informative. I m planning to visit in August for a week from Dhaka, Bangladesh and remember the day trips recommendations.
This wonderful your video pop up on my screen and I so entertained 👍
Happy to see u friend and want to see ur videos more & more💕😊
Excellent informative video! Great job! ~Cara 😊
Great video!
Been to 5 out of 6 of these places and they are all very pretty. The closest train station to the Rhine Fallls is Schloss am Laufen. Bern is beautiful city and very underrated as a must see tourist location. Would also add St. Gallen which is just an hour from Zurich
Thanks for tips
So informational video..Thanks
Cute couple…❤❤
Wow, great. Big 👍 my friends. Greetings from Poland
Wow ❤️
Thanks for sharing! I am often visiting Zurich (less now with the current situation) on business from Stockholm. I will keep these in mind to extend my working trips. Thx! (I voted on instagram)
Nice job
P.S. Nice pronunciation of the Vierwaldstättersee :-)
Vielen Dank für alle diese Empfehlungen. Nun jetzt die Geschichte des Braun Bärs von der Schweiz, bitte. Nähmlich wie hat Bern der Braun Bär auf ihrem Stadtsschild und sind da auch Kinder Märschen?
Thank you !!
Do you recommend buying train tickets to Lucerne etc ahead of time or can we buy the day of ?
How could I board on the 5:38 AM train from Zurich Giesshūbel to Ringlikon? I know no trains of the Uetliberg railroad that stop in Zurich Giesshūbel in all other hours.
Hello Guys, i am watching & loving ur videos from the day i have started planning my 1st trip to Switzerland with my family & Kids.
Can you plz suggest an itinerary that i can follow during 5 days trip using Swiss pass something thats interesting for kids & also not very hectic.
A little about our background We are a family of 5 me & my wife along with 3 kids of age 9, 7 & 4, we are coming from Dubai so snow is something that excited kids the most.
Anyone else who travelled with kids can also share his experience
Hi guys, it was a good share and recommendations, but would it be possible to write down those places you are talking about in the video please
Where do u recommend to do shopping in Zurich? Where locals shop?
Is there video about Lucerne? And how to go to Rhinefalls from Shcaffersen?
Yes we have Schaffhausen/rheinfalls and Lucerne videos on our channel
A similar video from Geneva please
we're working on it as we speak!
too beautiful
we have an upcoming trip to Switzerland for the 1st time flying in to Zurich come November,with these day trip recommendations, what kind of train ticket would u recommend? day pass or super saver ? thank u

Hello! I'm from Brazil, heading to Switzerland for 5 days in October! Are there any tips for someone who is on a budget?
Hi Chris! I actually made an entire video about tips for budget travel in Switzerland: czcams.com/video/CmxSdklCFz0/video.html
hopefully this is helpful!
I am so curious to know if you both have regular jobs outside of CZcams ? With astronomical living cost in Swiss, how do you afford to stay in posh hotels and eat fancy meals at restaurants?
We both work full time lol
Hi guys can I get the swiss train pass at the Zurich airport?
Yes, just go to the SBB counter on the level just above the platforms. They’re very helpful and you can purchase tickets & passes via the kiosks or via the helpful SBB staff.
How come you didn’t include Interlaken?
I wouldn’t consider Interlaken a day trip from Zurich, you would be on trains for at least 5 hours that day and not have time to see much while there
@@TheTravelingSwiss Thanks for your prompt reply. I thought Interlaken is 1:30 hr train ride away. Now we need to re-think for our itinerary.
I love train rides! You guys have such lovely personality! Great video!
