Hi,
I am planning a trip to Switzerland in July with my parents both 60+, wife and daughter who is 4 years so I am trying to avoid a lot of hikes but 30 minutes to 1 hour walk is fine. Below is my itinerary, please take a look nd let me know if you have any suggestions.
I have two questions:
1. I am planning to fly in to Geneva from London and then fly out of Zurich back to London. Is there any advantage of doing this the other way round?
- On day 2, I am planning to start early from Geneva, visit Montruex castle and Charlie Chaplin museum then take golden pass train in evening around 4:00 PM. Since this is July I am assuming it will be long days and golden pass train in evening will also be good. Is this doable?
My itinerary:
Day 1- Reach Geneva- Local site seeing, night stay in Geneva.
Day 2- Geneva to Montreux by train. Montruex local site seeing Lake and Chateau de Chillon castle and Charlie Chaplin museum. . Finally take golden pass train to Interlaken around 4:00 PM, then train to Lauterbrunnen.Night stay Lauterbrunnen.
