Switzerland the most beautiful place on earth! I have been many times and never tire of its stunning views, especially the Berner Oberland. It's absolute heaven 💖

[@amyhamilton5]

I so appreciate that you guys tell how to get places, how often they come, how long the ride is, etc. I'm using your videos and the itineraries I purchased from you exclusively to plan our trip in Sept/Oct. And if I still have questions, I'll be asking Louis for a consult!

[@samshukporkwong6698]

Thank you for this amazing video! Can’t wait to visit Murren from next trip. Your hotel and public transit info are very helpful! Keep up your great work!

[@HTEtravel]

Awesome video. That is so cool that there are no cars in Murren. The views from everywhere you went are amazing. My wife and kids would love the bond museum. I am not really a bond fan. I love the thrill walk. OMG, that funicular inside the mountain to the waterfalls and the waterfall itself was amazing. That is definitely going on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing.

[@hopecandelori9081]

Great video! We’re visiting in July and I have all of these places on our list! It’s great to see what to expect when we get there!

Hey need itenary

[@jurgbangerter1023]

La Religieuse there is no Swiss German word for it same as Fondue is a French word or do you want to translate it as Schmelzkäse, and Raclette as Abgeschabter Käse, stop translating French Culinary words, the Krauts in their Duden made Restaurant into Restorant and nobody followed.The Swiss Germans in Gault et Millau call a smalll chicken "Mistkratzerl"i which translates as Manure or Shit scratcher and in French Gratteur de Fumier sometimes leaving the name Roasted Chicken -Poulet Rôti would have been enough.

[@ahosany3793]

Great vlog With detailed and smooth explanation of all places 👏🏻

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@AdventuresOfATravelingDon]

Wow what a video! I appreciate the time that must've been put into this. Give me a broom closet as long as you give me a view of those mountains every morning I don't care what the rest of my room looks like. The towns are gorgeous. I love the James Bond display. Even more so I love the view atop the Mountains there. Oh man that fondue had me drooling. Well done on the video. Gave me plenty of bucket list spots to add.

[@Nanes-vl3zy]

Always love a good video of Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@TravelingontheGo]

love the swiss apps, nice commentary and the housing there is something else... the cable car was pretty fantastic and the views around every corner are memorable for sure... the 4:37 mark was a cool angle i thought :)

[@PioturNo]

Switzerland I need to visit someday beautiful country Great video friends 😍🙌👍

[@HFH-Official]

I already had a 10 day trip planned UNTIL I randomly found this place on a recommended video. I had to change everything just cause I want to visit Murren. 😂 The view looks more beautiful than most places I have seen.

[@Kahappy68Adventure]

Its a nice video.. exciting trip to the top and riding the tren on the top of the mountain.. breathaking view looking on the window.

[@paulgrzyb179]

Your videos are so well done! Thanks for the useful information!! We will be traveling this August only by train, and I am limited to short walks. Can you do a video showing those sites and hotels that require little walking 10-20 minutes from a train?

[@grahamjones7070]

Love your videos. They are the reason we did Switzerland. We did Zurich,St.Moritz,Zermatt, Montreux & Lucerne,plus the Bernina Express,Glacier Express,Golden Pass trains. We loved them all but really loved Zermatt and the quaintness of it. Next time we will do some of the small villages like Murren, Grindelwald and Wengen. Have you done videos of the latter two?

[@thetravellingwelshman]

Wow the landscape there is truly mind-blowing! It looks like something out a fairytale! that really looks like my ideal place to live 😍😍 great vlog my friends!

[@walkingwanderlust5596]

Did a day trip here in winter 2019..would love to come back again and stay a couple of nights.. beautiful place.

[@kavithapreetha7597]

This video is soo helpful and informative as you pronounce the places and also show the boards and bus stops and train stations and what not. Very helpful for planning a trip and I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel ❤️

[@Steve-id5qx]

Great video! If you ever go back there, the walk from Murren down to Gimmelwald is gorgeous, and the little village is definitely worth seeing. Also, the restaurant on the Piz Gloria is a worthwhile splurge. The views are amazing, as it rotates hourly.

[@Outlawes]

We've always wanted to visit the Swiss Alps... and this video has just made us even more excited to go one day. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

Thanks for watching! Enjoy your trip!

[@JanPBtest]

I'm now staying in Lauterbrunnen (my fav. spot) and it's all true 😃

[@Error_694]

Went to Murren today and there was a TON of construction going on right now. Also, the ride up wasn't bad, but the ride down was a little rough. It was PACKED and there was very little ventilation. Felt like a mini oven. Glad we had masks.

[@elpidiaholguin9643]

🙏 thanks

[@exploreaswego]

The tram up was stunning! View from the up is super nice! So great to see those snowcap mountains in the background! How do you guys come up with your list though!?!? So cool to see 007 place! Thanks for the list! Definitely useful!

[@juliemariesmith8378]

Gorgeous! Thank you! Just planning my trip, what month were you there please?

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

Love the idea of no cars.Those mountain views are amazing. Switzerland seems like it's not real

[@fifi1561]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing it with us. Would love to go back to the Swiss, especially the Alps. Canceled this year trip sadly but hopefully next year we won't have to cancel again. Any video from Grindelwald?

[@elbert534]

Beautiful Switzerland! All the places are so amazing! I hope I would be able to travel there next year!😍❤️🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭

[@sugandhaagrawal382]

Thanks for the video, Murren and Schilthorn are for sure on my bucket list, and will be visiting them in June 2023. is Schilthorn included in the Swiss travel pass ?

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

No unfortunately Schilthorn is not included in any of the passes, but you’ll get a discount with the Swiss travel pass !

[@denggonzales9934]

Thanks for your beautiful and informative video. We are visiting Switzerland on last week of October. However we will stay in Interlaken. If we have only one day for Lauterbrunnen, Murren and Piz Gloria, may I know how many hours we should set to do the whole trip, Lauterbrunnen, Murren and Piz Gloria? Thank you in advance for your reply. It will be a big help in our planning.

[@nordicgod32]

It’d be great if you did a video on taking the trains (like riding them and picking routes)

[@showkathossain9638]

At the start of your every videos, on 0:47 you are on a paddle boat. May I know which place this was ? Looks very charming ! I would love to visit

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

Lake Annecy in France! about 30-45 min from Geneva

[@louiskoh8173]

Hi guys, nice video! :) would like to check when you guys visit Schilthorn Piz Gloria? during late summer Aug/Sept?

[@johnrichardson5556]

How much is the ticket to buy for Schilthorn? Can you guys do a video on where to buy all these tickets? or Put a link down on each videos of the the places u visited & where to buy the tickets. Thanx for the great tips & infos!

[@puneetpatwari]

Hi Alexis & Louis, I was reading that there is some constructions going on. I am planning to travel to Scilthorn in September 2023. Can you please suggest if the mountain is still good to visit and the thrill walk is accessible or not?

[@mamagotgoals3114]

Does the Jungfrau pass cover Murren also?

[@GlobetrotterGranny]

Would you describe the weather in the Interlaken region in late August/early September as a good time to visit?

[@psychologicalvlog3292]

Hey, you can take gondola to Interlaken from Murren? We are planning towards end of October.

[@bernlagutan7702]

Can you please make a video of all the costs included in ur trip to Lauterbrunnen- Murren -Jungfrau

[@anushrijain9939]

Is La Religieuse (cheese rind that forms at the bottom of pot) in Swiss German called as "Die Nonne" or "Grossmutter" ?

[@hzelsantiago1289]

Planning our first family trip to Switzerland and this video is helpful. We do have a 6months old baby and and a dog so wondering if Piz Gloria dog friendly?

[@dunndee9570]

Does Swiss travel pass cover all Lucerne, jungfrau Region?

[@MrAlvinSinfulSong]

Is Murren worth visiting in December?

[@mamagotgoals3114]

wow!!! Thank you for taking us with you to Murren! It wasn’t on my list to visit, but we may have to do a day trip from Grindelwald. Do you think it’s hard to get there from Grindelwald?

[@timmccabe4654]

As towns go, Murren and very nearby Gimmelwald, are the places that really make me feel the most like I’m “in the Alps”. It’s about a 90 minute trains/cable car/train trip from Grindelwald to Murren. You can take trains from 1) a flat route from Grindelwald (via Zweilutschinen) or 2)a slightly longer mountainous route via Kleine Scheidegg/Wengen. However, if you have time to add a couple of hours to that, skip these trains and take a gondola from Grindelwald up to Mannlichen, and walk (20-25 mins for those in reasonable cardio condition) up to the Royal Walk observation point for an amazing and unique view (even for Switzerland). Then take a cable car down to Wengen, where you can stroll their Main Street before taking the train down to Lauterbrunnen, when you can then cross the street to get on the cable car up to the train to Murren. Went staying in The Berner Oberland area, it is important to think of the whole area as a big circle - Interlaken, Grindelwald/First, Jungfrau Joch, and the Lauterbrunnen Valley (which includes Wengen, Murren/Gimmelwald, Piz Gloria, Tummelbach Falls and Schynegge Platte)- and be sure to navigate all around it, making stops along the way.

[@lianneclarke887]

That’s such a brilliant detailed reply. I was going to ask the same question so glad I checked your channel out . We are going in august or September have not decided yet

[@rasknorr535]

So, Could you please give some idea, from which international airport is close this place and are there any public transport available? That would you helpful

[@shirleychousf]

Thank you for your informative information. We are heading to Murren on Saturday, do you know if the playground opens now? The wedsite said the funicular typically runs from mid-June till October. Does that mean the park is closed?

[@pritijain3547]

Hi... Again, very informative video. Could you share a link to book trains or buses to these places? I would be traveling to Germany next weekend and unfortunately couldn't find a single night bus to direct train to Interlaken from Munich. Do Shae the bus/train links. TIA.

[@insectatravel3657]

what recommended? Laurerbrunnen - Grutchalp - Murren or Stechlberg - Murren. I want to ask... how to get there Lauterbrunnen to Stechelberg?

[@danielgomessilva8966]

9:20 and here we are on the: "Shit Horn" 😂😂😂😂 Sorry dude, o had to comment that 😂😂😂

[@wobley75]

I’m going to Switzerland this October. Should I purchase the Jungfrao Pass? I am planning to stay 6 nights and Laurterbrunnen is my base. . I’d appreciate any suggestions. Thank you so much. Xoxo

[@jinayalda3897]

which camera you take video?

[@rafaelluisflores9556]

Is the funicular covered by the Top of Europe pass?

[@markusstudeli2997]

It doesn's look as if anybody has answered your question concerning the Swiss German name for "la réligieuse", the cheese crust at the bottom of the fondue pan. It might be a local thing, but we call it "s' Grossmüeti" which translates into "the grandmother", probably because of its rather wrinkled look. :-)

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

Ahhh! Thank you for sharing! We were always wondering

[@dominiquelara3538]

Hi can you legally fly drones in Jungfrau region? We'll be spending 5days in jungfrau, including murren so just wondering if we could bring a drone? Also, do you think jungfrau pass is better than Swiss pass? Thanks❤❤

[@Yogangster1995]

Quick question, I want to go to both Lauterbrunnen and Murren, is there transport between the two towns and if so, how long does it take to get from one to the other?

[@jcheck6]

Mr. Tbag, park in Lauterbrunnen and take the cable car then walk on mostly level ground to Murren and back. Or once off the cable car there is a train that will take you into Murren. Otherwise I believe there is bus service between Lauterbrunnen and the cable car that goes directly to Murren via south bound on the valley floor.

[@patriksidiangco3692]

Hi guys! I would be travelling with my aunt to Switzerland for 6 days in December. Any suggestions on where we can spend most of our time in? And where it would be more practical to stay? Because we plan on checking in 1 hotel instead of going to different ones.

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

Hi Patrik - Lucerne is probably a good location for that. It has a huge train station and is quite central in. Switzerland. You can easily get to Basel, Bern, Zurich, etc from Lucerne in day trips. Interlaken is another good suggestion that is very well connected and centrally located, but you may have more options in Lucerne (and its better connected as well)

[@patriksidiangco3692]

Thank you so much for replying! I love your videos!

[@hoong1974200267]

Hi Patrick, is that worth to buy the Swiss travel pass, I think is quite expensive, thx

[@patriksidiangco3692]

@@hoong1974200267 Hi Siew, what my aunt got instead was the half fare pass. I didn't do any calculations so I wouldn't know which one is better to get.

[@ionutgreere]

Hello! The Bernese Oberland Pass is valid here?

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

it can be used to access Murren, but the Schilthorn/Piz Gloria is a separate ticket (its not included in any pass)

Hi! Would you happen to know anything about getting a covid certificate in the US? I’ll be visiting next week and I’ve tried everything. The US has a covid vax record but they don’t issue certificates like countries in Europe. I’ve tried reaching out to the Swiss embassy but only get referred to online efforts but it seems I can’t get a certificate unless I’m in Switzerland? Do you have any info on this?

[@rvngonzales]

Can I use the Top of Europe pass for these places?

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

The Schilthorn is excluded from all travel passes unfortunately

[@rvngonzales]

@@TheTravelingSwiss i see...but can use the half fare card?

[@paulmcennany5982]

How long would you recommend staying in Muren? Do you think you could accomplish all of this in just a weekend? (note: I'm not a young lad anymore, ha!)

[@jcheck6]

Yes if you just want to see Murren. No if you want to visit Wengen (my fav) and see Kleine Scheidegg. If you stay in Murren and do not want to hike steep hills a nice more level walk is go north through Murren towards the cable car that will take you down to the Lauterbrunnen valley.

You need to monitor your sound, as sometimes the microphone is too far away making it hard to hear and understand. That is particularly the case for my American ear when Louis speaks as I need better sound to understand him through his accent. You might also add more vistas in relationship to the views of surrounding people. Notwithstanding my hopefully useful criticism, I enjoy your videos of Switzerland very much.
