    Hi Dharmesh5,

    Have you read through our information pages on Montreux, Lake Geneva and South-West Switzerland? I would recommend reading through those pages and seeing what activities and sights interest you the most.

    Then, after reading them, if you need assistance in how to incorporate some in your itinerary let us know and we’ll be happy to help!

    Regards,
    Lucas

    Hi Lucas,

    Thanks for the links. I think i want to cover the following places:

    Chateau de chillon, boat trip in late geneva, gruyers (cheese and chocolate factory). If time permits then Rochers de naye. I also read tat there is a luge ride near gruyers. I want to do if its good.

    Jet d’eau, flower clock, any one interesting museum, Charli chaplin statue.

    We are not very interested in historic sights. We are more inclined towards seeing the natural beauty of switzerland (hiking is not on the list as the other family members may not do it). Plz suggest if i should see any other place and also guide me as to how should i plan my 2 days.

    Hi Dharmesh,

    You could allocate one day for the two factories and the town of Gruyères, and another day to Geneva and Montreux (via the Golden Pass line). It takes a lot of time to do this from Interlaken as day trips. The timetable shows train schedules. Personally I would skip Geneva as it’s too far away and you are more interested in nature anyway.
