    I would love some advice in preparing my itinerary for my first time visiting Switzerland this summer. I am excited and super overwhelmed! We are arriving in Geneva on August 4 and departing from Geneva on August 14, giving us a full 9 days to explore.

    Note: We are two adults, renting a car and have not chosen where our stays will be. Our issue is, do we book one or two stays in the main region and drive each day from there? We don’t mind driving max 2-3 hrs from our stays. We LOVE greenery, alps, views, etc!

    The places we’d love to visit are: Interlaken, Gruyere, Lauterbrunnen, Zermatt, Wengen, Lucerne, Grindelwald, Corippo, Morcote, Valle Versazca, Seealpsee, Appenzall, Murren, Zug, Lake Brienz, Geneva, Annecy.

    Your thoughts? Is it too ambitious?

    Thanks so much!
