Practical tips for Switzerland
- Invest in a Swiss Travel Pass for seamless, unlimited travel across trains, panoramic routes, boats, and municipal buses throughout the country.
- Switzerland uses the Swiss Franc (CHF), not the Euro; while card payments are nearly universal, keep a few CHF coins for luggage lockers and public restrooms.
- You rarely need to buy bottled water, as the thousands of public fountains found in every town and village spout crisp, safe-to-drink mountain spring water.
Fun fact about Switzerland
Switzerland has enough underground nuclear fallout shelters to accommodate over 100% of its entire population.
