I am planning to stay in Interlaken for 8D/9N from 1 May to 10 May 2006 with my husband and daughter, age 5 years. I want to know if the weather will be suitable to move around the Bernese Oberland by train. I have only heard of Jungfraujoch and Mt. Titlis so far. I am sure there are other mountain places to visit. could somebody advise, please, keeping in mind my daughter's age. Also, is ...

Hi:



Is it possible to swim in the Lugano lake? We will be in Lugano in the beginning of June. Are there any beaches?



Thanks,

I was wondering if this is possible. We will stay in Zurich and take an early train to Geneva. We were told that 2 hrs should be enough to see Geneva. We are planning to take a train to Montreux and Chillon rest of the day and go back to Zurich.

We are spending a long weekend in Geneva at the end of the month and wonder what is the best way of buying bus and train tickets? We will need the train from the airport into the city and will probably use buses whilst there. Is there a pass that would be good value? or any kind of multi ticket?

I was thinking of The Jade Hotel which is coming in at around 215 chf a night and although this includes a light breakfast it doesn't look in the ...

Hi, all Switzerland experts--hoping you can help us. We're a family of 4, incl. 2 adults plus our 16-year-old twins (just missed the Family Card cut-off there). Our trip to Switzerland in August will be 8/19-8/38 (8 days), but the last night we need to be back in Zurich due to a 7:00AM flight on the 28th. We plan on arriving at Zurich airport around noon on the 19th, head straight to Lucerne for 2 ...
