What’s it like to visit Switzerland in March—that quiet in-between season when the snow is melting, spring is just waking up, and the tourist crowds haven’t arrived yet?

In this video, I take you along on my 6-day journey through Switzerland, traveling by train and exploring everything from big cities to tiny mountain villages. From 36 hours in Zurich to 12 hours in Bern, 3 full days based in Interlaken (with stops in Lauterbrunnen, Mürren, Gimmelwald, and Grindelwald), and ending with a few reflective hours in Geneva before flying home.

This is Switzerland beyond the postcards.
Moody skies, clear lakes, misty valleys—and a pace that makes you slow down and take it all in.

📍 Full Itinerary:
Zurich (36 hours) – Old Town, Bahnhofstrasse, Uetliberg hike
Bern (12 hours) – Zytglogge, Rosengarten, Old Town
Interlaken (3 days) – Day trips to Lauterbrunnen, Mürren, Gimmelwald, Grindelwald
Geneva (Final day) – Jet d’Eau, Old Town, Lakefront walk

🎟️ Trains, scenic routes & tips for shoulder season travel included!

📸 Equipment
(*Note that I value lightweight, compact and budget friendly options because of the type of travels I normally do)

* iPhone 15 Pro Max - amzn.to/3SKEOPR
I have moved over to the iPhone for most of the ground footage - it actually takes amazing videos and my phone is always close by.

* DJI Mini 4 Pro - amzn.to/3W8MVI5
I absolutely love this drone - it’s small, compact and provides amazing footage.

* GoPro - amzn.to/3W88ok9
I still use the GoPro for the ‘on the go’ shots. It has great stablization, battery life and video quality.
