    WE FLY OUT FROM GENEVE ON THE 5TH OF JAN.

    WE WOULD LIKE TO GO THE SCENIC ROUTE,SEE THE YUNGFRAU ,MONT BLANC,ICE PALACE AND IMPORTANT OTHER WONDERFUL NATURE SIGHTS …PLEASE ADVISE WHICH!?…AND NEED ADVISE ON STAYING IN THE BEAUTIFUL TOWNS ALONG THE WAY LIKE GRUNDELWALD,LOUSANNE,INTERLAKEN ETC ETC. WE ARE THINKING OF GOING THE AIR BNB WAY…CHEAPEST BUT COSY PLEASE!

    Hi Elledee, welcome to MySwissAlps!

    May I ask you to read our forum rules please? Please do not write in capitals only, and post to the right forum (not to Trip Reports since this is not a report but a question; I moved it to Miscellaneous). Thank you!

    As for your questions, here are a few tips to get started:

    • I think you mean the Golden Pass route, right? Please find all details here: myswissalps.com/ goldenpass.
    • The Mont Blanc is not near this route so I’d recommend to skip it as you only have 5 days.
    • There is not much to see in Interlaken itself, although it could be convenient base to explore the region, which is wonderful. The smaller towns in the Jungfrau region are more beautiful.
    • I can’t help with AirBnb, but we do offer a selection of excellent cheap hotels: myswissalps.com/ hotels/budget.
    • Our trip planning section will be useful too.
    • Make sure you plan location names correct, that will help a lot when searching for information, and train schedules in the timetable: Jungfraujoch, Grindelwald, Lausanne.
