    Hello, Newbie here from Australia.

    Trying to plan a Switzerland tour and I have come across the company Switzerland travel centre. It allows you to book a self guided tour either by drive or railways.

    You can choose what star accommodation, edit to add days and activities. You can clearly see prices for activities and change hotels according to preferences.

    Looks fantastic! Seems great but unsure if safer to use a local travel agent here in Australia or not.

    I just don’t know much about booking it from Australia and of all the activities I want to add will align with trains each day etc so would love some feedback from anyone who has travelled Switzerland booking through STC.

    Thank you
