Questions:
1. Please feel free to make any suggestions.
2. I know there is always discussion on this – Lauterbrunnun or Wengen? Hotel suggestions?
3. Currently, I have only 1 night in Montreux and 3 nights in Zermatt. Would the wiser option be 2 nights in Montreux and 2 nights in Zermatt? I am concerned about the weather in Zermatt but what is there with an extra day?
