You guys are awesome. Our trip was planned very well from watching your videos and We saved lots of money. I will recommend anyone going or planning to visit Switzerland must all of this videos. Thanks and wish you all the best.
Am I flying into either of these airports? no. Did I watch the video? yes.
Thank you Louis for some great information and advice regarding both airports! Have a blessed day to both of you!
Your timing was perfect Louis, danke!
Thank you so much!!! This is so perfect timing because I’m going to Zurich next month!
Perfect! Enjoy your trip :)
Thanks so much. I'm travelling in October and this makes me feel less anxious
Thank you very much guys I like to watch your videos beautiful Switzerland n useful tips also 😊👍
Happy to hear that!
Great video!!! Always nice to get a preview especially first time visiting.
New subscriber here. Thank you for all your informative videos. It gives me an idea on how to navigate my 7 days trip to Switzerland from Zurich. Lautetbrunnen, Wengen, and Murren are on my list of places to visit. I am not sure if we can do a day trip 😄. Also your Interlaken video is very helpful too. Next time we come back I will definitely get the regional ticket. Right now we purchased the Swiss pass for 4 days and thanks for your suggestion on How to enjoy Zurich.
If I purchase the Swiss Travel pass, do I need to get a ticket at the machine? Or can I just get on any train with my pass?
you can just get on the train with the pass!
Really useful informations bud, nicely explained as always.👌
Glad you liked it
Great video Louis and awesome to see you solo in a video. One question.. is there a Swisscom store at GVA airport to get a prepaid SIM?
Very helpful for first timer travelled to Switzerland 🇨🇭
Perfect timing. I leave for Zurich tomorrow
You guys are great couple 🌹 and your videos are so informative, we appreciated your hard work. I'll be arriving at Zurich airport coming from US, also my brother who lives in Canada will arrive at the airport an hour later, my question is are all non schengen flights passangers will be out from arrival 2? I want to know because we want to meet at the same spot. Thank you ❤
Very helpful Thanks
The only stress about the issue of the two sectors is that you aren't allowed to cross between them without a flight ticket. So people renting cars but not flying may have a problem
Hello Louis great video as usual. I am actually traveling to Geneva in December. Thanks
Make sure to check out the Geneva christmas market! thanks for watching!
Louis in your video you spoke of a Geneva Chocolate store. Do you know if it’s at the airport. Prior to you video I made all my reservations and train tickets. No Geneva on this trip maybe next year. But I am going to Gruyere when I arrive for 1 night. Kevin
Thanks for the helpful video! A question, if you have a moment to answer: I am visiting another country from Zurich by train (bought a ticket through SBB) and the ticket included a train ride from the airport to Zurich HB. There is a departure time noted on the ticket from the airport to HB, assuming that it is the one with the shortest layover/wait. But what if I want to take an earlier train to HB? Could I just get on any train that goes directly to HB with the ticket even though it's for a later time? I don't do well with short layovers and want to give myself plenty of time before my long train ride outside Switzerland.
Very useful.You could have talked about other airports as well.Thanks
This was helpful. I’ll be traveling in and out of Geneva airport late May. Are there lockers for luggage at airport or train station?
Hi I like your videos it’s really helpful. I am planning to come Interlaken and went visit jungfraujoch , piz Gloria and interlaken tourists spots. Which travel pass good for me .If help me I will glad to you . Thank you
I am wondering about the crowds. Saw other airports in Europe was messy with so many passenger stranded and such. How is Zurich Airport? I will be there in Oct. so happy!! And your videos are so helpful!!! Thanks for the contents!
I’ve never experienced anything chaotic in Zurich airprot, this summer has been the same, even when it’s busy everything is very organized and efficient
Interesting video, thank you. Unrelated question, what is the total costs for train from London to Zurich, how long will the trip take, sleeping car or not necessary, and are there border checks/passport checks?
Do you have a video of places we can go near zurich airport?
Welcome Heidi is priceless
All your videos are great! Questions: 1) is there also free wifi in ZRH?, 2) if we purchased a train ticket online ahead of time, can we just take a screenshot, or we need to open the app if we have WiFi and show our ticket in the SBB app?
THANKS so much!
you can just take a screenshot, as long as the QR code on the ticket is clear / able to be read by their scanner you should be all good
@@TheTravelingSwiss maraming SALAMAT (Thanks so much in Filipino)! ❤️
Hello Louis! Thank you for your videos!
Since I never been to GVA could you say aprox, how long it takes from touch down to claim your luggage and go by shuttle bus to P51. I need this info to book a car. Thank you!
Wow that’s so useful!!!
Hi Louis u 2 r just awesome and ur kid is too cute.i am coming ro switzerland from 27 oct to 3 nov...I would be staying in interlaken..I would be having a 1pm flight should I stay last day in zurich or can I come from interlaken in morning and get the flight
So you can't get a free train ticket from the airport to the hotel in Geneva??? Thank you!
great video,have a quick question. Is there a free train ticket valued for 80 min from ceneve airport to center?
Also advice for wifi cards? Thank you!!!
love your content.
great information!
Does Swiss Travel Pass cover the train from the airport to the city?
Okay I legit got lost in the Zurich trying to get to the city 😅 this would have been so helpful before that trip. Thanks for sharing!!
The Zurich part was confusing. So you get off the airplane and have to get on a train with Heidi to go get your luggage?😅 I’m lost!
Right! The good thing about this is that you don‘t have to walk long distances with your luggage. The carousels are right bevor the customs exit. I prefer this method.
Is there i train going to Lauterbrunnen from the airport?
I am traveling to Switzerland next week, can you please help?
Does anyone know where to buy a Swisscom SIM (for tourist non-Swiss non-EU) at the Geneva airport. Thanks!
hey, we are looking at going to Geneva, Lake Geneva hotel and it says complimentary shuttle buses do you know how to access the free bus/ train pass ?
Your hotel will give you the card when you check in ! Info here www.geneva.info/transport/card/
@@TheTravelingSwiss that’s amazing thank you for your help !!
Hello! Can you guys do a video on the culture in Switzerland pertaining to immigrants?
sure thing! anything particular you want to know?
@@TheTravelingSwiss mainly around how to easily integrate into the culture. We hear it’s very challenging as the culture is secular. Love some advice!
Wish I saw this video in 2019. I did better at navigating the whole country then navigating ZRH.
