Very happy to have availed the service of PYT for our Europe trip. We were well supported in our VISA processing. The logistics was planned well and we had all the necessary bookings and tickets with us. The instructions were very clear. At every point there was chat communication from the team, in india, netherlands, germany and switzerland. It helped us calm down in some of the tricky situations. A member called us to check on us and it made feel safe at all times. All the Hotels were very clean, cozy and very close to train and bus stations. Strongly recommend Pick your trail, for a stress free travel experience.Sivapriya Iyer, Trip to Switzerland

Switzerland Luxury scenic-train-route Trip: 7 Nights & 8 Days

Switzerland is a land of breathtaking landscapes, where every corner reveals a new wonder. On this 7-night luxury scenic train route, you will traverse the stunning terrain of this alpine paradise, immersing yourself in its rich culture and history. Each destination is a gem, from Zurich’s vibrant urban life to the tranquil beauty of Lucerne and the adventure-filled Interlaken. As you glide along the tracks, be prepared for a journey that’s as much about the ride as the places you visit.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Zurich: A bustling metropolis known for its vibrant nightlife, stunning art galleries, and exquisite museums. Don’t miss a stroll along the shores of Lake Zurich, where the snow-capped Alps provide a majestic backdrop.
  • Lucerne: Nestled by Lake Lucerne, this picturesque town is surrounded by mountains. Take a steamer cruise for spectacular views and explore the charming streets lined with souvenir shops.
  • Interlaken: True to its name, this is adventure central! Surrounded by the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains, you can try everything from paragliding to serene boat rides on Lake Brienz.
  • Scenic Train Journeys: Experience Switzerland’s famous trains like the Golden Pass and Bernese Express, offering panoramic views of alpine lakes, charming villages, and majestic peaks.

Travel Tips for Switzerland

  • Swiss Pass: Invest in a Swiss Travel Pass for unlimited travel on trains, buses, and boats across the country, providing you with the ultimate flexibility.
  • Tipping: While service is included, rounding up your bill or leaving small change is appreciated in restaurants and cafes.
  • Weather: The weather can change rapidly in the mountains, so pack layers and be prepared for both sunshine and sudden snowfall.
  • Local Etiquette: Respect local customs, such as greeting with a smile and a firm handshake. In some areas, speaking a few words in German, French, or Italian can go a long way in making connections.

Conclusion

Embarking on this 7-night luxury scenic train route in Switzerland is more than just a trip; it's an immersive experience that weaves together the stunning beauty of the landscapes with the rich cultural tapestry of the country. With every train ride, you’ll find a new adventure awaits, each more captivating than the last. So pack your bags, prepare your camera, and get ready for an unforgettable Swiss journey.

Well planned and customised the iternary as per our Requirement. Enjoyed our first Europe trip of 11 days (Paris & Switzerland). Through out involvement of staff to create a hasle free journey. Madhur for booking, Subash for in between planning, live support during travel by Selina, Taniya, Janani and many more. Only thing i would like to suggest that inclusion and exclusion should be notified through call at the time of booking. Not like 3 days before travel. So customer should have choice of selection either to go for it or not. Overall it was a Perfect Experience. Thank u everyone.
