Hi Olivia! Sadly I chanced upon your channel only after I planned a trip to Switzerland in Nov next year. (BTW I have liked and subscribed!) You mentioned nov is likely the worst period to visit due to rain and many outdoor activities are not operating. However there is short you did on what to do in nov (looks similar to oct). I am wondering if i should shift my trip to sept (at least the glacier express will be running too). I do want to see autumm colours and visit the mountains though wont be skiing nor hiking. Rain is a deal breaker and will be a shame. Will be visiting for 2 weeks. Should i shift my dates to september? (Airfare redemption availability is much lower). Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Please do not come in November it will be such a shame. It’s much better to change ur trip to September and there are a lot more harvest activities going on, and u will def deal with less rain.

Unfortunately it’s not a very good time for both! Winter activities end by Easter Sunday (next week) for most mountains which then close for maintenance, unless you go to mountains with year round snowing like Zermatt, Saas Fee etc. as for lush green valleys, since this is transition season, the trees are still growing. I feel that May would be a better time.

@Olliechinny

It’s not expensive considering it’s for 3 couples and over 7 days. Each couple is only paying £1200 which averages out to £85 per day per person. If you only get one base: for the places u appear to be visiting I think u will end up doing very long daytrips and wasting ur time on transportation back and forth (Lucerne to Zermatt is very far by the way) so not advised. If you like more travel tips and recommendations considering booking a consultation www.Buymeacoffee.com/olliechinny and I can look through ur itinerary and give advice.

Hi, I’m from Mendrisio and I DO NOT RECOMMEND visiting Ticino during August, on the average week you get five days of hell (35-40 degrees Celsius) and two of hail… If you plan to visiting Switzerland including Ticino, the best months are May, June and September. Also if you visit Ticino don’t sleep over the Mendrisio area (Mendrisiotto) and check the two best Mountain Views over the Lake Lugano gulf of Monte San Giorgio and Monte Generoso. The local wine production and gastronomy are also well renowned in the country. 😉
