Zurich
 
I am on the way to Zurich for the second half of September (visiting) and would like to book one or two train trips.

1. What is the best website to buy train tickets? Is Rail Europe okay or are other sites cheaper?
2. Thinking about Munich, Lake Como, Lyon or maybe San Tropez. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Why not just use the local companies rather than a US based organisation which just sticks a premium on the price.

seat61.com gives good advice

https://www.sbb.ch/en/travelcards-an...l-tickets.html is a good place to start and there is also a good phone app for the tickets.

Absolutely SBB - go to the source.

But...Munich, Lake Como, Lyon or maybe San Tropez. Is this a trip to Switzerland or just a pass through?

Don't use Rail Europe.
