First time to Switzerland

deciding to go to Switzerland over Christmas week we would like to incorporate a train ride while there. Leaving Michigan arriving in Zurich. Dates are flexible originally planning for five nights beginning around December 23 and returning on the 29th.

Especially wanting to incorporate a scenic train ride. Unsure where to begin what train, hotel recommendations and what not to miss in the short time we’re there. Suggestions greatly appreciated.

This year or next year? If this year, you'll need to get rooms ASAP and it might be a struggle to find any.

Tell us more: do you like mountains, cities, museums, skiing, shopping, snow hikes, etc., would help us guide you.

Moderate budget. This year.
Not a skier or hiker. Want to do a scenic train ride, take in the mountain view’s. Be close to the city and public transportation, shopping. What not to miss relating to historic sites and/or
day trip suggestions.

WOW that's in a month, short time. many places/things booked up for almost a year. what is a moderate budget (switzerland is very expensive and especially during holiday, many wanting what you want)
have you looked at booking.com, how many people, are you locked into zurich flight? good luck & happy travels. dress warm
