MY SWISS ADVENTURE: DISCOVERING THE MAGIC OF THE LAND OF MOUNTAINS AND MEADOWS

Ever since we started dating, my now-husband and I always talked about going to Switzerland for our honeymoon. Now that we finally married after all these years of being together, it was time to make our dream a reality. My husband had left the charge of planning the honeymoon to me. I knew that we both wanted something beyond the usual when it came to Switzerland, something that added a touch of excitement.

As much as I love organising trips and having done it so many times before, this time was different. Getting back to our regular lives after the wedding events had barely left us with any time for planning a vacation. It was also another reason why my husband handed me the charge, as he knew I needed everything perfect – no matter the situation.

PLANNING WITH THRILLOPHILIA

It was at this stage that my bestie recommended travelling with Thrillophilia. She had gone on several trips with them before, and each experience had been flawless. Hearing about the positive reviews of Thrillophilia and looking at my jam-packed schedule, I decided to speak with their team. From the moment I started browsing for Switzerland packages, to the point where I connected with their destination experts – everything was so quick and easy.

I chose the Best of Switzerland with Matterhorn Glacier Paradise Day Tour package as it matched exactly with what I wanted. It was offbeat yet it covered the charm of Switzerland in the best way. Having found the perfect package for us, I was then supposed to finalize everything else. But I didn’t need to do anything except tell the team my preferences, and they did everything for us. After worrying about the trip for so long, I was suddenly so stress-free it was overwhelming.

THE MAGIC OF SWITZERLAND

While my husband had guessed we’d go to Switzerland, the itinerary was a surprise. It had been his wish to see the Matterhorn, and now that it was happening, he just couldn’t believe it.

One of the first things we did after we landed in Zurich was activate the Swiss Pass. It gave access to all public transport, which was essential for a smooth trip. The best part was how their services were just the way Thrillophilia switzerland reviews had mentioned – the team was ready to help us out with any issue. Their dedication to our comfort and convenience was truly admirable, and it made our journey truly a bliss.

Our first day took us to Interlaken from Zurich, where we were to spend the first three days. Interlaken was super-charming as it had so much to offer. We enjoyed heading out on a boat tour across Lake Thun, which was memorable. The team had also recommended a picnic at Hohematte Park, where we enjoyed some time at leisure, watching the sunset.

The second day was for a Grindelwald First day trip, and it had us both incredibly excited. Much of our craze came from the name itself, which has inspired some sections of our favourite Harry Potter series. But Grindelwald is so much more than its name. We rode the gondola and it was hands down one of our most memorable experiences. My husband also tried paragliding, while I immersed myself in the adventurous First Cliff Walk.

For our third day in Interlaken, we headed to Jungfraujoch. The rail ride was one of our favourite experiences in Switzerland, as it offered panoramic views all around. The mountain lived up to our expectations and the hype it carried. The photos we took from the observation deck turned into memories we’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Our next two days were for Zermatt and my husband’s favourite – Matterhorn. The views from Zermatt felt like they had come right out of a postcard. We literally jumped at the first skiing opportunity there, and then spent the rest of the day exploring the shops at Bahnhofstrasse. But the highlight of our honeymoon was definitely the fifth day when we rode to Europe’s highest cable car station. If you are in Switzerland, you cannot miss Matterhorn. I’m so glad my husband suggested visiting the mountain – it was an experience we’ll reminisce about for years to come.

We didn’t want to get down from Matterhorn, let alone heading to Zurich. But the next day brought just that, and off we went to our final honeymoon destination. We spent our day strolling around Lake Zurich and exploring the Old Town. We went to cafes, bought tons of chocolates, and spent an amazing time together. These days had been some of our most memorable ones together, marking the perfect start to our happily ever after. Switzerland was always our dream, and now it’s become our favorite holiday destination!
