We’re glad you enjoyed it.

We are with you. Their chocolates are the best, creamy but not too sweet. We try to buy a year’s supply if we can.

@kristine8509, This is just a standard room. We were there during the winter. I am sure they had a heater, but I can't remember if they had AC. We usually book Expedia for our hotel needs. While planning our summer visit to Europe this year, we made sure all our hotels had AC. If you look at the amenities tab on their website, if it shows a snowflake icon, that room has AC.

@@happyshellfilms Thank you so much for the reply to my query. Appreciate it.

ET IN ARCADIA ,EGO !!!!!!!

@ebiofoto, My answer is contingent on what activities you want to do, if you are driving or using public transportation, and the timing of your visit. For example, Zurich is more convenient for public transit because almost everything converges there. Interlaken is more centrally located, and getting to places like Bern, Lauterbrunnen, Grindelwald, and even Jungfraujoch is easier and faster. Zurich is already festive, and the Christmas markets are open as early as the last week of November. Interlaken starts their festivities around mid-December.

@@happyshellfilms thanks for the info sir. we are takin the train from paris and we plan to be in switzerland for christmas. is Interlaken festive enough ? or you suggest we celebrate in zurich ? am just worried interlaken might be quite and private hehe

@ebiofoto, We have not been to Interlaken during the Christmas season. At best, we were there on December 1, and there were no festivities yet, as Interlaken is a small town. As for Zurich, as early as the last week of November, there are already Christmas activities until probably December 24 (the last day of Christmas markets). If you have never been to Switzerland, you should start in Zurich; then, you can go on side trips to Interlaken, Lucerne, and Bern if your schedule permits. There will definitely be more activities in Zurich as it is their biggest city. Note that shops are mostly closed on Christmas Day itself. I have linked here our video of our Christmas Market tour in Zurich in late November 2023: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gCstIPQaQPc.htmlsi=QK1Y81I2jTTGhYjk

@@happyshellfilms ahhhh thank you for the detailed info sir. perhaps ill have Zurich as homebase. then just do daytrips to the mountaints as you suggested. thank you so much.

Thanks for the tips! We will definitely consider your suggestions.

@svetlananersesyan8231, When you get out of baggage claim, you exit the terminal and cross a small street to enter another building. From there, you can find signs for the hotel, and it will take you 5 minutes or less to get there. The hotel is outside the terminal area, i.e., you must go through immigration to stay in the hotel, so you must have the proper visa. It is not a transit hotel located within the terminal area.

@larrymacavinta7331 Thank you very much! The voice is from an AI voice generator; recording our voices is more challenging, and ours is not as pleasant. The sites in Copenhagen were close to each other, and as long as our walk between sites is less than 1 mile or 15 minutes, we'd rather walk. While walking, there were many exciting things to see, adding to the experience. Frederik's church and Gefion fountain were not part of our itinerary, but we chanced upon them while walking.

Where? Switzerland or Germany?

@@happyshellfilms I'm not from Konstanz directly, but from near Singen. But that's in the same county. I was there from time to time at the border and did the same as you (Germany-Switzerland). However, until about the year 2000 there was still a border fence between Constance and Kreuzlingen (Switzerland), so in the past you could only do it directly at the lake, there was always a gate open.

I am sorry to hear about your mother's passing. Losing someone we love is always difficult, but I am glad this video reminded you of happy memories with her.

Thank you 🤗

Stay well rooms have an air purifier, shower infuser, and cleaning protocols. A regular deluxe king room will not have those amenities. Everything else, like room size and other amenities, is the same.

@kaymagno23, the stops are only several minutes long for passengers to board and deboard. If you want to stay in a particular place, you can get off the boat and take the next boat. The ferry is more of a passenger service on a schedule.

We had cheap economy tickets and we were at the back. I’d say the seats were tight.

We'll see you there, too.

Indeed, Iseltwald is always beautiful, whatever the season may be.

Glad it was helpful! We put as much information on our videos for those interested in traveling to the same location. There is a part one of this video which has the Zurich filming locations: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-87rQozjuUE0.htmlsi=mzEBg3LJXX2iW7-v

No. It didn't come with HDMI cable. That will be a separate purchase.

@luisdiegohidalgo, That risk exists depending on who will strictly impose the rules. However, the risk may be lower than getting a stamp from a tourist location instead of a real country. If you think about it, Liechtenstein is a bonafide state; if not for the Schengen area, our passports may have been stamped if we enter the country. We intend to get stamps from other European microstates like San Marino, Andorra, etc. What we won't do is get stamps from non-state tourist spots, e.g., Checkpoint Charlie. We have been back to Europe and traveled to Asia several times and have been fine so far.

Definitely worth a visit. Try mo rin ang Mama Helen’s 😄

Yes, this hotel is located airside after security near the F gates. If you are connecting from one international flight to another (non-Schengen) on Schiphol, all you need to present to the front desk is your passport and ticket for your same-day or next-day flight.

@@happyshellfilms okay thank you. So I have around 17 hour lay over, do you suggest going to any lounge or the mercure hotel ?

There is really little to do in the hotel. As you've seen in the video, it's the front desk, then the rooms. The hotel has little entertainment except the TV in your room. But if you want to lie down and sleep, the hotel is perfect. You can spend the rest of your time walking or shopping in the terminal.

No. This room was 'comped' as a benefit for being an MGM Rewards holder and was reserved from their booking website. The Elite King room is the smallest of the suite rooms they offer. mandalaybay.mgmresorts.com/en/hotel.html

@Renato Sio. The family day pass is suitable for two adults and up to 4 children and is only available online. However, buy a Lake Brienz Day Pass for 60 Swiss francs each. With the day pass, you can make as many journeys as you like on scheduled boats. You can buy the day pass from this site: bls.trekksoft.com/en_GB/activity/311978/day-pass-lake-brienz. I am unsure if you can buy the day pass at the station. To give you an idea, a round-trip ticket to Giessbach from Interlaken Ost will cost you 50 Swiss francs. You can explore the BLS trip planner here to show you how much the ticket costs. www.bls.ch/en/fahren/fahrplan I have also linked here the boat schedule so you can properly plan your trip. It lays out all the stops and the departure times. Look at page 10 of the brochure, as that will be the period that you will be in Interlaken. The brochure is in Swiss-German but is fairly understandable. I suggest making stops at Brienz, Giessbach, and Iseltwald. www.bls-schiff.ch/sites/default/files/2022-12/Fahrplan_BLS-Schifffahrt_2022-23.pdf

We'd recommend you stay in Interlaken as there are more hotel and restaurant options and it is more centrally located. There are also two train stations about 1 mile apart. We do not have enough experience staying in Grindelwald as we only made two separate day trips. We stayed in Hotel Interlaken during our first time in Interlaken; on the subsequent visit, we rented an AirBNB place because there were 6 of us, but we drove to the sites instead of using public transportation. If you use public transport, you'll be better off staying in one of the hotels near one of the two train stations.

@@happyshellfilms much thanks for your recommendation. In your other video you went to the valley of waterfalls, Lauterbrunnen. Pls advice how to do this using public. Another question is which other places do you recommend we visit while in First. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences.

@Renato Sio, someone drove us to the village when we went to Lauterbrunnen. However, using public transportation, a train from Interlaken Ost (RE62) runs every thirty minutes and can take you to Lauterbrunnen. It is about a 600-meter walk from the train station to the village and about a kilometer to Staubbach Falls. You can do a waterfall hike in Lauterbrunnen to see other waterfalls. Still, we do not have much experience to tell you exactly what to expect. At Grindelwald First, you can get to the top station and do the cliff walk or hike to Bachalpsee (a mountain lake); the hike is about 2 hours round trip, so we opted not to do it during our last visit. If you are in Grindelwald, you can also go to Kleine Scheidegg and Jungfraujoch (this was in our other video). Just be prepared if you are going to Jungfraujoch that the air is thin, and we had difficulty adjusting to feeling dizzy the whole time we were there. If you are staying at Interlaken, just right behind Victoria Jungfrau Hotel is a funicular that takes you to Harder Kulm, the top of Interlaken. If you want a more relaxing experience, you can do a Lake Brienz cruise that begins behind the Interlaken Ost train station with stops at Iseltwald and Giessbach. I have linked a time-warp video of our cruise here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xy0Ps1c_Glc.html

@@happyshellfilms Thanks much. Your time warp video of lake Brienz looks so beautiful. We will most likely do this. How much is the fee to go up Harder Klum? Is the funicular the only way to get there? You have given much much help in our planning for July visit. Thanks

@Renato Sio, the funicular is the only to get up Harder Kulm and will cost 40 Swiss francs round trip. Here is the website for more info: www.jungfrau.ch/de-ch/harder-kulm/

It’s in Appenzell, Switzerland.

We traveled in November and it was rainy in the afternoon. You should have better weather in July.

You are welcome.

Thank you.

Thanks. If you’ve seen part 2 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tNClOYEcEQw.html, you will hear the English version of those k-pop songs.

@angge The prices will vary by the day of the week and the season. Usually, it starts at P 3,000++ per night. The hotel's website is linked in the description if you need more information.

Sorry, we don't usually reply immediately in our comments section. The only thing I can think of is an Indian fast food counter at the food court inside the airport public area. Other than that, I don't recall any Indian restaurant within the airport or in the immediate vicinity (i.e. The Circle). We haven't been there for a year so things may have changed. www.flughafen-zuerich.ch/en/passengers/shopping-and-enjoy/eat-and-drink/fast-food/india

Any time!
