How's this itinerary? Zurich-Bellagio-Venice-Innsbruck
Sorry if I have posted too many times, but I want to make sure we plan a good trip (honeymoon, first time for either of us to Europe). We have tickets on SWISS into Zurich (free from future father-in-law) so that's why we are flying both in and out of there). After changing my mind many times, here's what I have:
June 1: Arrive Zurich 9 am and collapse (hopefully hotel will let us in early!)
June 2: Zurich
June 3: Zurich
June 4: Train to Como, ferry to Bellagio
June 5: Bellagio
June 6: Bellagio
June 7: Ferry to Como, train to Venice
June 8: Venice
June 9: Venice
June 10: Train to Innsbruck
June 11: Innsbruck
June 12: Innsbruck
June 13 Train to Zurich a.m, flight out 4 p.m.
I've looked into the trains and all rides seem to be 4-6 hours, so the days we travel we should still be able to poke around our new location, have dinner, etc. And we are looking forward to the beautiful train rides!
Thanks for reading and any advice!

Very nice trip if you subsitute Luzern for Zurich. The train station is in the airport and you can be there in just over an hour. Luzern is a much better destination. I would prefer Salzburg over Innsbruck, but it is further. Whatever--you will have a fab time.

Looks good to me. Though if you are like us, you won't collapse on arrival in Zurich--excitement and adrenalin always carry us through the first day. Normally end up crashing at around 8 or 9 PM and waking up the next morning well rested and ready to go.

Hello Tabi,
For your travel from Zurich to Bellagio, I recommend you to travel by train Zurich - Chur - Bernina - Tirano - Varenna and to take the boat from there.
This will take more time, but you will see more of a very alpine scenery. Search for "Bernina Express".
Have a good trip
