-
Hi all,
My wife and I are planning on visiting Switzerland for the first time.
-We get in Zurich* at 5pm on Nov. 30
-From reading the forums, seems like Lucerne should be our base as there is not much to do in Interlaken.
– We leave from Zurich* at 6pm on Dec. 2.
We like enjoying the outdoors. Not big on nightlife. Open to ideas on areas we would be able to check out.
NOTE: If there are closer airports to Lucerne(to save time), we would be able to book flights from there.
Thank you

Hi Obaidkhan –
Glad to see you here. Welcome.
Here is a start on answers-
Lucerne is, indeed , a good base.
Zürich airport is the closest, and quite convenient. Two trips per hour, one does not require a change at Zürich main station. Short ride.
Have you discovered the timetable and relevant instructions?

You are right – that is slow season in the high Alps.

Thanks for the prompt response Slowpoke.
I have not looked at timetable yet, not sure which towns to see for such a short period of time and the slow season.
Hi Obaidkhan,
The Lucerne page offers suggestions on things to do: myswissalps.com/ lucerne/ activities.
Hi Obaidkhan –
The timetable will help you understand the trip from Zürich Airport to Luzern.
If you learn to use it in detail, you will find it helps a lot for trip planning.
Once you have listed journeys for your date and time,
click on the “+” sign to the left of any particular journey.
Then you can get a great deal of information about that journey, including a map, intermediate stops, train/bus/boat changes, food )(if any) on the train. etc.
