Alexis I’m with you on the prudishness. I’m American as well and I’m often “surprised” by the lack of modesty when it comes to one’s body in other parts of the world. We will be experiencing all things Switzerland in August 2024 and soooooooooooo looking forward! Your videos have been so invaluable.

I like the ability to take day trips from a "home base," so you don't have to pack up and move hotels everyday.

I always look forward to your vlogs dropping! our trip to Zermatt is coming up quickly and I am feeling the last-minute push to lock down train passes, day trips, etc.! I just purchased your Zermatt Itinerary and am excited to delve in and make my train choices and restaurants picks already, LOL. thanks so much for doing what you do! oxox

I have loved Montreux since I was a child visiting relatives in Fribourg. Pity there's no mention of Every and Les Pleiades but such a wonderful itinerary.

Thank you for the very informative video and a special thanks to Louis. Thank you for pronouncing the place names in the original as a French Swiss. I'm very interested to hear how the names are actually pronounced.

You can see alot of christmas markets, and Montreuxs is one of the best. You should also absolutetly do the "Bains de Lavey", its like a geant spa openair.

What’s the difference between first and second class on the cgn boats on lake Geneva? We are considering taking a trip to Yvoire from Geneva. The price difference for our group (with 1/2 fare card) is 91 CHF
@TheTravelingSwiss6 ай бұрын
First class has a very nice upper deck with their own outside areas that isn't accessible to second class ticket holders and will be less crowded

What’s the likelihood of the cable cars in glacier 3000 operating late December? I play to visit here on a day trip from Geneva and would attempt to go if they’re working. I’m hesitant to fork out a small fortune on tickets for a day trip if they’re not going to be working

they’ll work ! It’s a popular ski destination they are well equipped for snow

I like your recomendations, but hotel Fermont is 730 CHF per night in June. I wouldn't recomend at this price. Only few people can afford this.

if you are looking for a good 4 star hotel then I would suggest the Eden Palace which is located on the promenade next to the casino.(it is in the beginning of the video)

Hotels fairmont overpriced better hotels for far less. Jazz festival has become way too commercial especially with the hundred stalls that appear for every festival thru out the year. The town units self is boring. The lakeside promenade is superb. Walk to castle return via lake boat. Walk the lavaux interesting terraced vineyards
