Frommer`s Switzerland

Most know Switzerland for its alpine scenery, its outdoor sports opportunities, its precision watches, and chocolates. But this is also a country with a rich history and many artifacts of that past on display-a 14th century cathedral here, a medieval town square there, castles, cogwheel railroads, museums rich with old masters paintings and more. To discover the wonders of Switzerland, both classic and new, takes a bit of planning and that`s where this book will help. It`s written by experts who are all based in or near Switzerland, who have spent months roaming the country to find the Switzerland very few outsiders get to see. – Full colour photos throughout and color maps, including a handy pull out map- Detailed itineraries geared towards long and short stays and different types of travelers- Opinionated, no-punches-pulled reviews so you can decide what`s worth your time and what isn`t (and thanks to the Frommer`s star rating system, you can easily scan the book)- Exact pricing so there`s never any guessing- Smart tips on saving money, applicable whether you`re a backpacker, or traveling in the lap of luxury- Compelling text on culture, history and art so that you`ll understand the context of what you`re seeing and experiencing
