일정 옆에 두는 여행 노트
보고, 이해하고, 쉬는 법
날짜별 일정에 이미 나온 내용을 다시 나열하지 않고, 여행 중 여러 번 꺼내 볼 기준만 모았습니다.
먼저 알고 가면 좋은 맥락
Pass through Zurich, a commercial hub; Lucerne, by the lake; Bern, with its medieval old town; and Lausanne, on Lake Geneva. Then discover the Renaissance in Florence and the history of Rome and Assisi.
Leave your luggage in Rome and visit Assisi for the day. The hilltop town is some distance from the station, so check local bus times along with the round-trip train schedule.
놓치지 말아야 할 장면
- Bern Old Town지도
Bern is the base for 3 nights, with train trips toward Thun and Interlaken.
- Lake Brienz지도
Visit Interlaken and Brienz on the same day, but choose your return train to Bern first.
- Uffizi Galleries지도
Schedule this for the morning of your second full day in Florence.
- Colosseum지도
Visit this on the same day as the Roman Forum.
- Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi지도
Take a bus from Assisi station up to the old town. Allow for uphill and downhill walking to the Basilica of Saint Clare.
먹고 쉬는 법
In Switzerland, mix supermarket meals with hotel breakfasts. In Florence and Rome, keep dinner on travel days within a 10-minute walk of your accommodation to save money and energy.
Don’t set aside a long lunch in Assisi. Have a meal somewhere between the basilica and Piazza del Comune. Don’t prioritize a restaurant reservation over your return train.
작은 팁Set aside a day during your Rome stay for a round trip to Assisi. It’s simpler to leave from Roma Termini and choose a direct train or one transfer in Foligno than to squeeze Assisi in from Florence, since you won’t have to change hotels. Keep a Rome rest day as a backup in case of a strike or rain.
How to fit it in
Book 2 nights in Zurich, 1 in Lucerne, 3 in Bern, and 1 in Lausanne. Then spend 4 nights in Florence and 6 in Rome, counting Day 18 as your departure day from Rome.
Reality check
Travel between Zurich, Lucerne, Bern, and Lausanne on regular SBB trains, and take round trips from Bern to Thun and Interlaken and Brienz. Check seat requirements separately for the international train from Lausanne to Milan and the Italian high-speed train. From Roma Termini to Assisi station, choose a direct train or one with a transfer in Foligno.
Count Zurich to Lucerne, Lucerne to Bern, and Bern to Lausanne as full days for travel and sightseeing. Leave 11–13 hours for the Interlaken and Brienz day trip, including around 5 hours of round-trip train travel. Set aside a full travel day for Lausanne to Florence as well.
Accommodation and restaurant prices vary by date, party size, refund terms, and city tax. For travel within Switzerland, compare pass, Saver Day Pass, and point-to-point ticket prices on the official sales site for the same dates, then choose one way to buy. Add international and Italian high-speed train fares and any required seat reservations to calculate your total transport cost.
Keep your phone and wallet in front of you at busy stations in Zurich, Florence, and Rome. For the Interlaken and Brienz day trip, leave at least two train options for returning to Bern. In Assisi, leave a spare departure for both the return bus and train.
If plans change
Replace Day 6 with Bern museums and an arcaded walk, or swap the Day 5 Thun itinerary with the Day 6 itinerary. Don’t try to fit in a lake boat trip.
Move the day trip to Day 16 or choose a smaller town closer to Rome, such as Orvieto. Cancel the long day trip on a strike day.
Make Day 11 in Florence and Day 17 in Rome market, park, and neighborhood stroll days.
Final check before departure
- First book accommodation that allows cancellation for 2 nights in Zurich, 1 in Lucerne, 3 in Bern, 1 in Lausanne, 4 in Florence, and 6 in Rome.
- Compare the cost of a Swiss Travel Pass and individual tickets using the SBB fares available for each date, including the two day trips from Bern.
- Check the Trenitalia schedules and seat requirements for Lausanne to Florence, Florence to Rome, and the Rome–Assisi round trip for your travel dates.
- Book timed entry for the Duomo, Uffizi, Colosseum, and Vatican Museums on their official websites.
- Save offline your connections between Assisi station and the old town and your return train to Rome, choosing a combination that avoids the last service on each leg.
Swiss intercity trains and Italian high-speed trains have different reservation requirements. Check the schedules, operating hours, and service notices for your travel dates on SBB and Trenitalia. Book timed entry for the Duomo, Uffizi, Colosseum, and Vatican Museums through their official ticket offices. For safety, keep border-crossing days focused on completing your final train connection and don’t schedule additional sightseeing.
