We would like to go for 5 days and would like to see the best of Switzerland. There is no itinerary yet and don't want to spend too much time traveling within the country. Please provide some info. Thanks

This is a difficult request without you being more specific about what you prefer. The "best" of Switzerland is different for everybody. Secondly, many of the best places are all over Switzerland (Zurich, Lucerne, Geneva, Zermatt/Matterhorn, Berner Oberland, the multiple scenic train runs, etc.). You could be on the train a lot to see many of these places. Perhaps a total of one of your days will be consumed in train travel depending on what you want to see. More detail please.

If you don't have the RS Switzerland Guidebook I would suggest that if you are planning a trip there it would prove very valuable. You could start by reading the articles on this website under - Plan Your Trip - Switzerland. That should help give you some idea based on your own interests. Then post a more specific question on this board.
