Bravo Olivia. Everything - right to the point. For whatever reason - hardly any other blogger finds it important to inform tourists that in the Swiss Retail business, and that includes Gasoline stations - there are "lights out" on weekends.

Hi Olivia, I really enjoyed your video on the top mistakes to avoid when traveling to Switzerland! Your tips on budgeting and bringing Swiss Francs are particularly helpful for those planning a trip. I also appreciate your suggestion on using local languages to show respect and receive better service from the locals. Your insights on transportation and avoiding touristy spots like Interlaken were also very insightful. Thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge with us! Fully watched and subscribed. Best wishes!

Ascona, Lugano Locarno Bellinzona … and much more!

Buying food on Saturday for Sunday is so important! And not spending too much time in Interlaken. Thank u!

[essentialtravelitems]

Great video, Ali! Thanks for sharing these valuable tips on the top mistakes tourists make when visiting Switzerland. Your advice on budgeting, bringing Swiss Francs, and being mindful of Sundays is crucial. I also appreciate the insight on not eating out too often, choosing the right travel pass, and opting for train travel. Your video is a fantastic resource for anyone planning a trip to Switzerland. Keep up the excellent work!

I just came back from a short trip to Luzern, Grinderwald and Zurich. A couple of days is definitely too short to explore the beauty of this country! But my biggest mistake is not realising that my phone couldn’t roam. I had signal, but no data. I had no problem with this when I was in Italy and it was then I realised that Switzerland is not part of the EU. So a travel tip from me is to get an E-Sim (app) or a Swiss sim card in advance!

Regarding Interlaken it is not that much that it has value itself, I think its popularity is mainly because it is used as starting base to reach the real hotspots such as Jungfraujoch, Grindelwald First, Schilthorn or Lauterbrunnen which are all really great spots (very expensive though...)

Very informative video. Thankyou so much.

Super helpful tips - Thanks so much!! Btw, for everyone who's saying to slow down, just select playback slow x2 on your video controls. I find the pace perfect (but I'm from Singapore). Thanks again!

[tinahindi]

Thank you for mentioning Interlaken. I was wondering why so many people were wanting to there. 😞 I am so glad you mention this.
