Switzerland – Best Itinerary for 8 Days


If you haven’t yet seen “the heaven on earth” then the destination choice is simple. There can no better choice than Switzerland where the nature has so liberally showered its beauty on its lakes, country sides and the unforgettable gasping experience on its hills where its virginity is still protected.
The primary reason which prompted me to finalize Switzerland was to go into the confines of nature where I could engulf it, breathe it and sip its nectar and rewire the brains and body of a robotic life.

Switzerland Itinerary for 8 days, a relaxed yet extensive travel through the Gems of Switzerland

So for starters make sure that you are not travelling with your luggage to lot of places, ensure that during 8-9 day of vacation make 2-3 bases and do day trips. Coz packing and repacking is a lot of hassle and more than that is travelling with luggage. And ensure these base cities are centrally located and have good connectivity to make day trips.
Mind you, there is sooo much to see in Switzerland and any itinerary will not fit in everything. But I tried to do best of all the destinations, because it is important to soak in and enjoy fewer places rather than rushing through to cover all. Hence, below are the places that I finalized that I would endeavour to see:

1) Geneva (1 Night)

2) Interlaken (4 Nights), also read places to see around Interlaken.
• Village towns – Murren, Lauterbrunnen, Gimmelwald, Grindelwald, Engelberg, Stans (we didn’t plan to go), Wilderswil.
• Mountain excursions – Schilthorn, Harder Kulm, Stanserhorn
• Towns – Bern

3) Zurich & Lucerne (3 Nights)

This might seem a lot of places to be covered in 9 days, but Switzerland is a small country with one of the best transport systems. And as I mentioned earlier, I avoid rushing though the places, and when I take you in detail of these, you’ll realize this.
