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.

  3. A Fun Family Itinerary To Explore Switzerland In 13 Days

Switzerland is a majestic tapestry of snow-capped peaks, crystal-clear lakes, and charming villages that seem to have sprung from a storybook. As I ventured through its diverse landscapes over 13 unforgettable days, I found it to be a paradise for families. From the vibrant streets of Zurich to the serene shores of Lake Lucerne, each destination revealed a new layer of adventure and discovery. Whether you’re gliding above glaciers or exploring family-friendly attractions, Switzerland promises a journey filled with wonder and joy.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Discover the enchanting beauty of Lucerne, a picturesque town on Lake Lucerne, surrounded by majestic mountains.
  • Experience exhilarating outdoor adventures in Interlaken, where lush greenery and thrilling activities await.
  • Marvel at the iconic Matterhorn while wandering through the car-free streets of Zermatt, a charming village with a unique atmosphere.
  • Unwind in Zurich, Switzerland's lively metropolis, known for its eclectic mix of art, culture, and vibrant nightlife.

Travel Tips for Switzerland

  • Consider purchasing a Swiss Pass for unlimited travel on trains, buses, and boats to make the most of your itinerary.
  • Embrace the Swiss tradition of hiking; many trails are family-friendly and offer breathtaking views.
  • Don’t miss out on local specialties like fondue and chocolate; they’re a must-try for any food-loving family.
  • Check the weather forecasts and pack layers; Switzerland's temperatures can vary dramatically from one day to the next.

Conclusion

Switzerland, with its diverse landscapes and welcoming atmosphere, is more than just a travel destination; it’s an experience that lingers in your heart. This 13-day itinerary is not just about sightseeing; it’s about creating memories as a family, exploring breathtaking vistas, and immersing yourselves in the rich culture of this stunning country. So pack your bags, grab your loved ones, and get ready for an adventure that will leave you enchanted long after you’ve returned home.

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.

PYT truly helped us from A to Z in planning and executing our recent Europe trip covering Switzerland, Finland, and Paris. Everything was taken care of seamlessly from the very beginning until the end of our journey. A special thanks to Akhil from the sales team, Srivatsan from the customer team, and the entire customer support team, including Chandramouli, Naveen, and Dinesh. Each one of them was extremely helpful, responsive, and ensured that every detail was handled neatly and efficiently. Whenever we needed any support, they were always there to assist us without delay. Overall, the entire team made our travel experience incredibly smooth, stress-free, and truly wonderful. We are really, really satisfied with the services provided and couldnt have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much to the PickYourTrails team and everyone who helped make this trip memorable!

We used their service for a trip to Switzerland. They were really helpful in planning the itinerary and the bookings for the hotels and activities. There were a few points which can be improved like communication of the day's activities by taking into consideration the time difference between India and the place of visit, since we were getting notifications 2 days in advance sometimes. And other places like coordination between the hotel and us. These were some small issues, but overall good experience and will look to use their service again.
