My husband is going to be in Stans for a week for business in June or July. The plan is for me to fly over at the end of his business part and for us to stay an additional week. I know this isn't nearly enough time to see all of Switzerland, but we would like to get a nice overview. I have never been before, and my husband has been only to Zurich and Stans. I've searched the forum and it seems like many people choose Geneva/Lausanne, then the Berner Oberland and then Lucerne. This sort of itinerary would probably work well for us, but I'm unsure how many nights to allot in each place. Also, would like to utilize our Hilton Honors points if we can. The only Hilton properties in Switzerland are in Lausanne and Zurich.
The flight I will likely be taking arrives in Geneva early afternoon. My husband would likely take the train from Stans and meet me in Geneva and then train to Lausanne. My first draft itinerary looks something like:
3 nights in Lausanne, using as a base for day trips
2 nights in Wengen
2 nights in Lucerne or Zurich, then fly out of Zurich.
If it makes more sense to stay on the west side, we could spend all our time there and just leave out of Geneva. I would love some opinions on the plan and suggestions for the last 2 nights if we don't head east to Lucerne.
