What are some good cites in Switzerland to visit?s?

Question

I want to go to a nice city that has nice people and will speak English. I heard it is beautiful there. What time of the year do you recommend going?

Answer 1

I've been living in Switzerland for 3 years. It is indeed a beautiful country and the landscape are just like a painting... They really have the four seasons over there, so it depends what you like to do and see, you haven't mentioned your age or so but if you like skiing I would strongly recommend you to go in the winter to: Gstaadt, St Moritz, Saas Fee or Zermmat, probably the best ski stations in the world, but be prepared, they are sophisticated and quite expensive. If you are not a big fan of skiing, then go in the summer: Zurich, Luzern, Rapperswill (very close to Zurich, you can even go by boat), Lugano and my favorite Ascona (it's a very charming place to visit in the summer, you can enjoy the lakes and the Italian flavour), if you decide to go around July then have a look for the Montreaux Festival, it's in the French part and it's very internationally famous. Have a good trip and lot's of chocolates....

Answer 3

I visited Switzerland in May many years ago and it was just wonderful.  While you'll find alot of English speaking people in the major cities (Zurich/Geneva), don't forego the other areas of Switzerland because it may be more difficult to communicate.  Geneva is a must see, but also try to get to Luzern, Interlacken, Gstad and Montreax.  I drove around for days and the drive from Luzern thru Interlacken and Gstad on the way to Montreax was breathtaking.  You can also take a ride in a cable car up the mountain in Interlacken...its a view you'll never forget.  If you want to be closer to the heart of the Alps, do Lugano and St. Moritz.  The Matterhorn is right in Lugano's backyard.  Enjoy!
