I also don't want to drive directly from the airport to Zermatt, but I have no choice. The hotel I have my eye on is only available for booking at this time. I will arrive in Zurich at 6:30 am on July 19th. I originally planned to stay in Gersau on the 19th, and in Zermatt on the 20th and 21st. However, the hotel I like in Zermatt is only available for the 19th and 20th. So, I have no choice but to drive that far on the first day. I think I have enough time, and I can take it slow, stopping to rest and enjoy the scenery along the way. I wonder if there are any suitable places to stop for food and sightseeing along the way. I saw on the map that Fronalstock seems nice, and it's said to have a fjord-like scenery ? Switzerland Q&A

We are two adults and one 10-year-old child. This time we will drive all the way for 8 days, which has been confirmed. Now we are considering whether to buy a half-price card or a 4-day or 8-day pass. I would appreciate it if you could give us some advice from friends who have been there. Thank you ? Switzerland Q&A

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A
