Rough Switzerland plan – Nov 23rd to Nov 30th
-
Hello all:
I’m looking for some help in planning my travel to this beautiful country.
Here is the rough plan I have that I plan to execute but I’m facing a few hurdles and I’m hoping someone will help me overcome them.
NOTE: I plan on using the Swiss travel pass for my trip
First the plan:
23rd Nov: 8 am —– Arrive at Zurich airport
– travel to Neuchatel where we unload ourself and take a train to Bern and Lake thun. Come Back to Neuchatel for night.
24th Nov:
– Travel to Grindelwald -> Jungfrau ->Wengen -> Grindelwald – > Neuchatel. Night stay in Neuchatel
25th Nov:
-Neuchatel -> Engelberg -> Mt. Titlis -> St. Moritz. Stay at St moritz
26th Nov:
– We were planning on staying at St. Moritz and take the Glacier Express train to Zermatt. Here is the bummer we just figured out that Glacier express does not operate during the time we will be in the country.
I have a few questions for this problem:
1. Am I correct that there is no Galcier express during this time?
2. What is the alternative train to Zermatt with the best scenic route? Is St. Moritz to tirano to lugano to zermatt possible ?
3. Is there a reason the train does not operate during this time?
4. We also plan on using Golden pass express, and Wilhem tell express in remaining part of our journey, does these trains operate definitively during the dates we will be in the country? Also, do I need reservations on each of these trains? And, how do visit SBB website how do I know which of the train is one of these scenic trains, are there any identification codes that go with these trains?
5. Last question is, what is a standard view train v/s barrier-free view train?
Sorry if I do sound naive but I would really appreciate if someone could help me with my questions.
Sincerely,
Pruth
