Montreux, Grindelwald, Zermatt, Lucerne in 8 days
-
Though I am a keen follower of this forums – still had doubts.
I will be reaching Geneva airport and I made the following plan. We will buy Swill Travel Pass (8+2 days promotion). Can I buy STP at Geneva airport? Also wanted to buy a Data Sim , as I need to run the SBB app. Will get at Airport?
Day 1. Stay booked @ Montreux
Chillon Castle , Maison Cailler, La Maison du Gruyère , HR Ginger Museum , Château de Gruyères
Day 2 Stay booked @ Grindenwald
I will take Golden Pass Train at 9.35am (direct train) reach Interlaken by 1pm. Which side should I sit? Plan to have Lunch here, I will keep luggage at restaurant here. . I am planning for Giessbach , Istelwald, Harder Kulm before I go to Grindenwald (I will go by 8 pm) . Here I have feeling that I booked my stay in mountains – but I am going only in the night.
Shell I go to Grindenwald straight after lunch and use my time there? If I go direct after lunch and reach Grindenwald by say 3pm – do I have any options to visit there?
Day 3 stay booked @ Grindenwald
I plan to do the Grindelwald FIRST . I suppose if I start by 9am, it should be over by 3pm. Can someone suggest anything If I can add with this? Also It seems trottibike is not available on my date of visit , April 21. . I am thinking of doing one mountain here – Schilthorn or Grindelwald FIRST .
Day 4 Stay not booked I can stay it either Grindenwald , Interlakend or Zermatt
I am not sure if I should visit Schilthorn (not visiting Jungfraujoch, as expensive with STP). Any other suggestions ? quite confused.
Day 5 stay booked @ Zermatt
If I start early I will have full day here. I am thinking either Matterhorn Glacier Paradise or taking Gornergrat Bahn to see Matterhorn. Please suggest. Evening I plan to see Zermatt city.
Day 6 stay booked @ Lucerne
I have booked Glacier Express at 8.52 am upto Andermatt I did seat reservation after I got an suggestion in this forums “Yes, you can travel from Zermatt to Andermatt by Glacier Express, then switch to regional trains to Göschenen-Arth Goldau-Lucerne. This will be a very scenic journey, on which you cover part of the Gotthard Panorama Express mountain route too: Fill out Zermatt as your departure station, Lucerne as your arrival station, and Andermatt as a via-station.”
Evening at Lucerne. Any suggestions?
Day 7 stay booked @ Lucerne
I Plan to to Titlis and Mt. Stanserhorn – evening at Lucerne
Day 8 stay booked @ Lucerne
Not planed yet. Any suggestions? Rigi with something else? Stoos? or Pilatus? Rigi is free with STP.
I have a flight from Zurich Airport at 10am next day.
Thanks a lot for your time and suggestions.
