Lovely 1st Day @ Lucerne

Switzerland, being one of the most expensive counties in Europe is often skipped over by budget travelers. Nonetheless, it's still worth staying longer to explore this beautiful country that is home to shimmering lakes, picturesque mountains, tiny walled medieval towns, soaring peaks and endless greenish fields. Everything runs on time here, people are friendly and most important, I felt safe, perhaps even safer than my hometown. Flying to this beautiful country from the tiny red dot took us a good 12 hours and there is no better way to fly than by SQ A380.   Depending on whether your itinerary is flexible, I personally feel that it is a good idea to purchase the Swiss Travel Pass that entitles you to unlimited train rides around 70 cities in Switzerland, free cruises, tram rides and museums. You will also enjoy discounts for mountain train to top of Europe, cable car or gondola. Remember, Swiss's transportation is not cheap and hence one can easily save a lot on transport
