    Hello All

    Traveling to Zurich in last week of November and thinking of following itinerary. Just need an advise if there is any pass that I should buy to get any discounts

    Day 1: Arrive Zurich, train to Strasbourg

    Day 2: Local Strasbourg and Colmar

    Day 3: Strasbourg to Paris train

    Day 4: Paris local

    Day 5: Paris – Zurich

    Does it make sense to buy any pass for the above travel plan ? Traveling with wife and 3 year old kid

    Thanks so much !

    Hi NK,

    It seems like your travel is mostly in France. You can check out ticket and travel information to France and for your trip from Paris to Zurich here: http://www.myswissalps.com/traintickets/france

    Thank you Anna.. very helpful

    I am still wondering if I should add Paris leg to this trip, especially as its a short trip. I have planned 2 nights in Strasbourg for visiting Christmas markets in the area and then cover Paris for 2 nights. Other option is to skip Paris altogether and visit Zurich and markets nearby, as we will be flying back from Zurich.

    Thanks

    NK

    This forum is about Switzerland, so we can’t talk about France. If you do decide to stay in Zurich or look at other places in Switzerland then we can answer your questions.

    Hi NK,

    I am not familiar with the Christmas markets in France but if you’re planning a longer trip to Switzerland, there are various Christmas markets that you can visit here in addition to the Christmas markets in Zurich. You can find more info here: http://www.myswissalps.com/activities/christmasmarkets
