Coach / Cars

The Swiss Postbus services are excellent. The bright yellow buses take travellers off the beaten track to the remotest regions of the country. They are a familiar sight along 700 scenic routes across Switzerland. Their safety standards and record of reliability are unrivalled.

Train

Within minutes of flying into Switzerland, you can transfer from plane to train. Fast trains depart hourly from the airport railway stations of Zurich and Geneva. Hourly rail departures also operate between all major Swiss cities. Swiss trains are comfortable, clean and punctual. In addition to efficient inter-city travel, an extensive network of nearly 500 mountain railways (including aerial cableways, funiculars and ski-lifts) will lift you up to the snow-capped summits of the Swiss Alps.

Boat

Travel on Swiss lakes and rivers is an unforgettable experience. Nearly 170 vessels operate in well-organised fleets on more than 20 waterways throughout the country. Stately steamers and modern motorboats are equipped with restaurants, some with bars. Cruises provide an excellent opportunity to see scenic Switzerland from a different and delightful perspective.
