App to organize trip

Good Morning Everyone
Recently I joined EF as I was searching some stuff on Google. I must appreciate the developer and organizer of this forum as it contain really great content.

I am looking for app/ website containing information to plan your trip for Europe and specially Switzerland. Normally we spend significant time by exploring plenty of website to extract information of sights, activities, Parking, restaurants. My interest is followings:

1. If I choose any trip from Basel to Grindelwald via car, app should recommend sights (attractions )all the way from Basel to Grindelwald. Optimal way to organize trip by selecting route, parking, grill points and activities.

2. Similarly if I choose public transport ,get the recommendation of trip itinerary according to attractions and activity of that route.

3. Offline audio guide will also enhance the productivity of app.

Hope I was clear to illustrate.


Thanks again to all members for sharing your valuable experience regarding every day topics

Re: App to organize trip

I don't know an app that does exactly what you need, there is the Grand Tour which has quite a lot of information on it.

And a couple maps of grills in Switzerland:

https://www.schweizerfeuerstellen.ch/

Of course, there are many more grills that you may find by walking a bit or asking the locals.

Re: App to organize trip

A lot of the fun is finding out for yourself as their is plenty to do in Switzerland and plenty to see.



We don't necessarily all want the same, the Charlie Chaplain museum in Vevey does not necessarily interest me, but the fortifications in Chillon, which are 10km away do, but my daughter would prefer the Cailler museum in Broc about 25km distant.....

I am not really into movies and had precisely zero interest in visiting the Chaplain museum: how can they make an entire museum about some slapstick guy who made silent movies? But I went because some visitors wanted to go.

It's actually one of the coolest museums I've ever been to. The guy was a bit of a genius and revolutionized the movie industry. As I mentioned, I didn't think it would be my thing, but I ended up really, really enjoying it.

I don’t think an app like that exists. The amount of information and research it would need would be phenomenal.
