We Didn't Expect Switzerland to be Like THIS — 10-Day Switzerland Travel Guide & Tips 2025

Video Description

Join us as we explore the breathtaking landscapes, charming towns, and unforgettable experiences that make Switzerland a true bucket list destination. We wanted to see ALL of Switzerland, not just the popular Jungfrau Region, so this fast-paced itinerary covers stops in the western french-speaking Romandy region, a stop at Zermatt to see the Matterhorn, and exploring a bit of the Italian-speaking Ticino region (all while traveling during my first trimester of pregnancy)! From serene Alpine hikes to the most vibrant blue water we’ve ever seen, Switzerland offers something truly magical around every corner. Come with us to experience the beauty of this idyllic country and learn how you can plan the perfect trip to Switzerland. 0:00 Intro – why Switzerland 1:11 Pregnancy curveball 1:30 Flight to Zurich + Limmat River swim 2:18 Stoos funicular & ridge hike 3:54 Arriving at Grindelwald & Fondue 4:28 St. Beatus Cave 5:10 Jungfraujoch Top of Europe 6:45 Grindelwald First + Bachalpsee 7:50 Lauterbrunnen & Staubbach Falls 9:07 Paragliding Interlaken 10:52 Bern + floating the Aare River 11:50 Lake Geneva cruise & Montreux 13:16 Zermatt – Gornergrat & black‑nose sheep 16:01 Matterhorn Glacier Paradise 17:09 Furka Pass drive into Ticino 17:26 Locarno 18:16 Morcote 18:50 Swissminiature 18:59 Verzasca River 19:56 Zurich walking tour +Lindt Factory 21:13 Lucern & Closing ________________________________________________________________ LINKS, TOURS, AND BOOKINGS *Some might be affiliate links* Swiss Half Fare Card – https://www.sbb.ch/en/tickets-offers/tickets/guests-abroad/swiss-half-fare-card.html Stoos Peak Experience ticket (funicular + cable car) — https://www.stoos.ch/en/pages/peak-experience-ticket-summer Jungfraujoch Top of Europe excursion — https://www.jungfrau.ch/en-gb/jungfraujoch-top-of-europe/buy-jungfraujoch-ticket/ Grindelwald First lift + mountain carts package — https://www.grindelwaldfirst.com/ Paragliding in Interlaken — https://gyg.me/U7kw7c1W Lake Geneva panoramic boat cruise — https://gyg.me/nrzBrtHF Matterhorn Glacier Paradise ticket — https://gyg.me/q6mW8hJn Zurich City Tour and Lindt Home of Chocolate — https://gyg.me/fHNXXycJ ________________________________________________________________ OUR GEAR: Main Camera - Sony A7 IV - https://amzn.to/3w5PYUC Camera Microphone - Diety D4 Mini - https://amzn.to/3Ijom12 Drone - DJI Mini 3 Pro - https://amzn.to/3S6I0Tf Action Camera - DJI Osmo Action 4 - https://amzn.to/3UJPKNG Camera Bag/Backpack - https://amzn.to/3DMrVuY ___________________________________________________________________ Follow Our Socials: Substack - https://substack.com/@jaycheladventure Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jaycheladventure/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@jaycheladventure Work with us - [email protected] ___________________________________________________________________ Music from Epidemic Sound - Intro — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/rIK7fJ2qry/ Backstory, Zurich, and Stoos https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/MZV1H4FZ9O/ St. Beatus & Jungfraujoch — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/iUFrtFTU1d/ Grindelwald First, Interlaken, Bern & Zurich — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/qa31oGFGyi/ Montreux — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/OiHw16ODbX/ Matterhorn Solo Day — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/b6psBnC8rU/ Matterhorn Glacier Paradise & Ticino Region — https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/QIjh7uBwgR/
