(Edit - I meant Zurich) Hire a guide and do a chocolate tasting tour in Zurich

I would skip both Geneva and Zurich and stick to the Alps.

Totally agree. You're wasting your time in the cities. It's not where CH shines.

Go spend time in Lauterbrunnen, Wengen and Murren while in Interlaken.

Served my mission there and my kids still rave about time in Lauterbrunnen,

Agreed, big cities are not where Switzerland shines. I would suggest Lucerne as

Take the gondola up to Santis in Luzern (yes I am a german speaker and Geneva is Genf LOL)

I speak a bit of German, but trying to keep up in Switzerland was pretty tough.

Been 2x. Agree with this 100%

Ditch Interlaken and go to Lauterbrunnen. I've been to both and Lauterbrunnen was magical and so much more enjoyable

Plus you have quick access to the Schilthorn here, and that is an amazing Alps viewpoint.

BlueBlood94

May 7, 12:42am

You can definitely drive to grindelwald.

Bluedarts

May 7, 1:12am

He might be thinking of Gimmelwald. That's a carless village like Murren.

Triznaynay

May 7, 5:36am

Yeah, whatever one is just a little below Murren that you can walk to on that paved pathway.

Via ferrata in Murren was one of the best experiences of my life

Triznaynay

May 7, 4:30am

I second this. We absolutely loved the Via Ferrata.

Also, it's one valley up, but Oeschinen Lake is INCREDIBLE and worth the drive/

Kandersteg is our favorite place in Switzerland. Quiet, stunning

When you say rentals do you mean like air bnb and vrbo?

Florwood

Yes. And don't be afraid to look rural. Train stations in every town.

You can also find apartments on Booking.com. Last year we stayed in Thun because

Thun castle was pretty cool. Thun would be a great central location to homebase

That's what we did. We stayed in Siglistorf a little town of 500 about an hour outside of Zurich. It was perfect

Obviously some strong suggestions here to go to Lauterbrunnen area....if you do,

Triznaynay

Been many times. Just spend most your time in interlaken/lauterbrunnen area

Idacoug

Don't stay in Geneva or Zurich. Focus on the Bernese-Oberland and try to stay in

Doogal McCougar

Thanks all!

I'll second what others have said. Avoid the cities and go to the mountains.
