We take the TGV Lyria train in first class all the way from Paris, France to Zurich, Switzerland. The journey takes 4 hours from Paris Gare de Lyon station to Zurich Hauptbahnhof stopping at Dijon, Belfort-Montbéliard TGV, Mulhouse and Basel along the way.
After we arrive in Zurich we check into our apartment called HITrental Niederdorf Apartments, they are in a great location in the centre of the City.
After resting for a bit we catch the tram to the Lindt World of Chocolate Museum in Zurich. On the tour you discover the history of Swiss Chocolate through interactive exhibits. The best part is the free unlimited chocolate tasting of all the Lindt Chocolate flavours. We really did eat so much free Chocolate at the Lindt Home of Chocolate we started to feel sick.
We then catch a ferry on Lake Zurich back to the City where we explore before having dinner back at our apartment.
Located next to Lake Zurich, at the foot of the Alps and in the heart of Europe, Zurich is a very cosmopolitan city.

Travelshorts’ Epic European Adventure is a family travel vlog about a father, son and daughter travelling around Europe over three weeks using only Trains, buses, boats and taxis. The plan was to see as much as possible whilst still reducing our carbon footprint. In this 22 episode series we visit France, Switzerland, Italy, Vatican City, Austria, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and of course the UK. The goal was to have as much fun as possible and create memories that will last a life time.

Most YouTubers will ask you to support them via Patreon (I did this as well so you may see some links on old video descriptions), I was always uncomfortable asking for money to make videos which I love doing, so if you do want to give anything I would rather it went directly to charity. For a number of years I have supported the Motor Neurone Disease Association, most people know MND as either ALS or Lou Gehrigs Disease. Here is a link to offer support:
