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.

4 Nights Scenic Train Route Through Switzerland
Switzerland offers a breathtaking blend of stunning landscapes, vibrant cities, and rich culture, making it a must-visit destination for any traveler. In just 4 nights, you can embark on a budget-friendly adventure that takes you from the bustling metropolis of Zurich to the picturesque town of Lucerne, all while enjoying the scenic train routes that showcase the natural beauty of the Swiss Alps. Along the way, indulge in local customs, savor Swiss chocolate, and immerse yourself in the charm of this beautiful country.
Highlights of the Destination
- Experience the dynamic blend of culture and nightlife in Zurich, where over 50 museums and 100 art galleries await your exploration.
- Cruise across the stunning Lake Lucerne, where the azure waters meet majestic mountains, providing an unforgettable backdrop.
- Take a scenic train ride through the GoldenPass route, connecting you to the heart of Switzerland's most beautiful landscapes.
- Don’t miss the chance to ride the world’s steepest cog railway to the summit of Mount Pilatus for panoramic views that steal your breath away.
Travel Tips for Switzerland
- Purchase a Swiss Pass to take advantage of discounted train fares and access to popular attractions, including the Titlis Experience and the Pilatus cog railway.
- Pack layers; the weather can change quickly in the mountains, so it’s best to be prepared for both sun and chill.
- Arrive early at train stations to secure your seats, especially during peak travel seasons when trains can fill up quickly.
- Embrace the local customs; try to learn a few phrases in German, French, or Italian, as Switzerland has four official languages.

From the cultural richness of Zurich to the breathtaking scenes of Lucerne, every moment is a chance to create lasting memories. Whether you’re riding the scenic trains or savoring Swiss delicacies, Switzerland welcomes you with open arms, ready to share its beauty and spirit.

We had a trip planned by them to Paris,France and Lucerne, Switzerland for 6 days. The pre-trip support with itinerary, visa assistance and bookings were good, there was no issues or errors during this period. Then during the trip we were accurately communicated the steps to follow and ways to reach the destinations beforehand and their customer support service was available online via their app and had quick response. As this was the first time we had an agency plan our trip so can't compare to other platforms but pick your trails was good and there was no complaints from us.
