Switzerland Help
 

I am heading to Zermatt mid August for a friends wedding. Flying into either Geneva or Zurich, but would love to spend a few days on either side exploring another city. Need help and advice as it would be most appreciated!!

Lucerne is only about an hour from Zurich by train and has a lot to offer. Pretty city, great boat/funicular/cablecar trip to Pilatus which would take almost a full day. You can easily spend another day wandering around the town looking at the covered bridges, museums, etc.

myswitzerland.com many options
luzern.org prettiest city for me.
seat61.com/switzerland for xport info

Happy Hunting!

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback!!

Geneva is beautiful. Very old meets new, absolutely beautiful in the summer

ideas for Geneva :)

I'm no expert but if you end up using the Geneva airport, stay in Vevey/Montreux for a few days. Absolutely stunningly gorgeous towns right on Lac Leman (about 1 hr by train outside Geneva). Personally was not all that wow'd by Geneva proper, but Morges, Lausanne, Vevey, Montreux - yeah!!!!!
