ABOUT SWITZERLAND BY RAIL
This site is intended to offer an overview and guide to the rail travel
splendors of Switzerland, journeys available, tips and tricks, with culture
and experiences thrown in, cities and side trips. Order tickets, find
rail convenient hotels on your journey and direct you to other helpful
resources in your visit to Switzerland. Information you’ll find
is directed to visitors from North America, but visitors from Britain
and the rest of the world should find this site as useful. This site
has a marketing advertiser relationship with Rail Europe, in cooperation
with Swiss Tourism and the Swiss Transportation System, but other sources of ticketing and information is

Sure you can get around Switzerland by automobile, but Switzerland was
built on the idea of public transport. Where getting from one mountain
valley to another was a long distance chore, the network of tunnels,
boats and rail lines made getting around convenient for locals and now
offers the most exciting and relaxing mode of transportation for tourists
and visitors. Whether you're heading for the tops of the Alps, visiting cities, or
traveling off the beaten tourist track - in Switzerland, trains, buses
and boats are always ready and willing to take you to any dream destination
you can think of.
