Frequently Asked Questions

Switzerland eSIM

Switzerland has excellent 4G/LTE coverage in cities, valleys and along most train routes. Zurich, Bern, Geneva and Basel are very well covered. On high Alpine peaks and in very remote mountain areas signal can weaken, but on almost all inhabited routes it works well.

After purchase you’ll get a QR code by email. Go to your phone settings, tap ‘Add eSIM’ and scan the code. Done in two minutes. Best to set it up at home — so you land in Zurich or Geneva already online and can use the SBB app for public transport straight away.

Zurich has Zurich Kloten Airport (ZRH), Switzerland’s largest international airport. Geneva has Geneva Cointrin Airport (GVA), the main gateway for western Switzerland. Basel has the EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse (BSL/MLH), operated jointly as both a Swiss and French airport. Bern has a smaller regional airport (BRN).

Switzerland uses the Swiss franc (CHF). Card payments are widely accepted but Switzerland is one of Europe’s most expensive countries. A simple lunch costs 20–30 CHF, a beer 6–8 CHF. Tipping is not expected — service is included in the price, though rounding up is considered a friendly gesture. Cash is still common in rural areas and small mountain huts.

Summer (June–September) is ideal for hiking, cycling and visiting mountain lakes. Winter (December–March) is peak season for skiing — Zermatt, Davos, Verbier and Grindelwald are world-class. Spring and autumn are quieter and cheaper, especially beautiful in Ticino and around Lake Geneva. Zurich and Geneva are interesting year-round.

Travel Tips

Switzerland — Useful tips for your trip

Switzerland’s rail network is itself one of the sights. The Glacier Express between Zermatt and St. Moritz and the Bernina Express between Chur and Tirano are among the world’s most beautiful train journeys. The Swiss Travel Pass gives unlimited travel on the whole public transport network — trains, buses, boats and many mountain railways. Expensive but it pays for itself.

Switzerland is beautifully expensive. To eat cheaper: picnics from the supermarket (Migros or Coop), lunch menus (cheaper than dinner), and fondue or raclette are actually better value than many other restaurant dishes. Tap water from the taps or public fountains is excellent — Swiss tap water is mountain-pure and most city fountains have drinking water.

Switzerland has four official languages — German, French, Italian and Romansh. Zurich, Bern and Basel are German-speaking. Geneva and Lausanne are French-speaking. Ticino is Italian-speaking. Switching between language regions in a one-hour train ride is a slightly surreal but enjoyable experience.

Visiting Zermatt: the village is car-free, which makes it exceptionally peaceful and beautiful. Take the train from Visp or Tasch. The Matterhorn is clearest early morning (6–8am) before clouds gather. Even if you don’t ski, the mountain railways up to the Klein Matterhorn station (3883m, highest railway station in Europe) are breathtaking.

Fondue and raclette are more than tourist food — they are deep cultural traditions. Real Swiss fondue is made in a caquelon with Emmental and Gruyère, and the bread is always stirred in circular motions. White wine or kirsch traditionally accompany it. Raclette is eaten with boiled potatoes, gherkins and small onions. In a genuine mountain restaurant these dishes are unforgettable.
