8 day Swiss trip – fewer mountains more relaxed?
-
Hello,
I am planning to travel to Swiss on 8th June 2018, with my wife and 20 month old daughter. Thanks to this great forum, I was able to gather many important information from here and prepared the below travel plan. Requesting your valuable suggestions to improve this itinerary.
Day 1 (16-Jun-18)
Doha to Zurich . Arrival at Zurich by 14:30 PM. Zurich to Lucerne by train. Apartment we booked is in Lucerne Allmend. Take Bus number 20 from Lucerne station and get down at Lucerne Allmend. Check in the hotel and relax.
Day 2 (17-Jun-18)
Day trip to Rigi. Lucerne to Mt. Rigi, Return through Vitznau via Boat. If time allows inn the evening,visit Lucerne old town, Lio Monument etc.. Stay in Lucerne.
Day 3 (18-Jun-18)
Mt. Pilatus trip. Come back to Alpnachstad and head to Ballenberg open air museum. (Hope these two trips can be done on the same day). Stay in Lucerne
Day 4 (19-Jun-18)
Day trip to Mount Titlis. Stay in Lucerne.
Day 5 (20-Jun-18)
Check out the hotel in Lucerne and head to interlaken by train. Leave the luggage at Interlaken OST station and visit schynige platte. Stay in Interlaken.
Day 6 (21-Jun-18)
Mürren – Schilthorn – Wengen trip. Stay in Interlaken
Day 7 (22-Jun-18)
No Plans made yet. Decided against Junfraugh because of the altitude. Options like Grindelwald, Thun are under consideration. Requesting Suggestions.
Day 8 (23-Jun-18)
Check out. Train to Zurich Airport. Return to Doha.
My concern about the trip plans is that its too many mountains (in fact mountains everyday). I am thinking about skipping few mountain trips and visiting some scenic places/villages.
Please provide your inputs.
1) Whats is the forum’s suggestion about skipping a mountain trip in Lucerne and visiting Rhine falls instead? If I have to choose any two out of Rigi, Pilatus and Titlis- which one should I choose?
2) Kindly suggest a relaxed day trip option in Interlaken area.
Thanks
