13 days Zermatt/Jungfrau area in early April
-
Dear Annika,
It is so warm and kind of you to offer your help. Great thanks. STP in addition to SBB and the Sightseeing Express Trains and Gondola etc. is rather complicated for a new tourist. To make us feel uneasy is – just refer us to various URL links without some hints. Am glad you are not like that. To us, we have read up a lot on the relevant websites before we approach your team. Therefore, i am very touched when you offer to help. Please keep this spirit up. A lot of people are like me – have done our homework but still need help. It is the same if you visit my country the very first time.
My tentative plan is:
APRIL 2022 . Solo travel
DAY 1 – 3 (Stay ZERMATT)
Train : Zurich airport to Zermatt. (any buses ?)
Gornergrat. Glacier Express. Maybe Klein Matterhorn. Hiking.
DAY 4 – 7 (Stay GRINDELWALD)
Train : Zermatt to Grindelwald.
Jungfraujoch. First Cliff Walk . Hiking
DAY 8 – 10 (Stay Murren)
Train / cable car / bus Grindelwald to Murren.
Schilthorn . Hiking
DAY 9 – 11 (Stay ?? can’t decided yet)
Train Murren to ??.Meisingen ?
Meisingen Postbus 4 Passes tour (do we buy the ticket on the bus ?)
Is it worth staying in Meisingen ?
DAY 12 – 13
Train from ?? Meisingen ? to Zurich
Overnight Zurich. Fly off the next day evening. I would be most grateful if you could advise me on the following
My interests : i love small little unspoilt villages with stunning high mountains around.
Do only very safe and easy hiking as i am a retiree.
Questions
1) does my proposed travelling plan make sense ? Any suggestions to amend or add or change?
2) the SBB prices are very complicated to us. Our small country has only tubes. No trains.
Please advise – shall i purchase STP Pass (how many days) or Flex STP, or Half Fare Card ? Or just buy saver price and buy online 6 months before when SBB prices are out and available ?
3) i love Postbus. From my schedule above, any parts i can take Postbus rather than train ?
Shall i include the Meisingen Postbus trip during my Grindelawld days ? Or just stay in Meisingen and do the trip.
My stay in Switzerland is Apr 1-13, 2022. Much that i would like to see more, but the train fare is really very costly. Therefore i made the plan above after many weeks of research. Please feel free to comment. You are expert. Your advice is so important. Dear Annika, thank you once again for offering to help me. Am really moved. Thanks again. And again.
Warmly,
Mo Mo
