After hours of researching the best things to do in Japan in summer, these are the experiences I don’t regret — from hidden gems beyond the Golden Route to must-try local food spots.

✅ 20+ apps & resources for navigation, booking & payments

🍴 Make restaurant reservations in advance (especially for popular spots!).

🛍️ Create a shopping wishlist to save time & avoid impulse buys — or grab my Japan Shopping List Notion template.

✨ Honestly rating the places I visited in Switzerl ✨ Honestly rating the places I visited in Switzerland as a female traveller. ✨

I spent a week exploring Switzerland — from the well-known highlights to a few hidden gems that completely surprised me. 🇨🇭 There were definitely some places I wish I’d lingered in longer (and a few I can’t wait to revisit one day).

If I could redo this trip, here are a few things I’d keep in mind:

🚊 Get the Swiss Travel Pass — it made getting around by public transport so seamless and worth it. (Booking link in my bio!)

🏔️ Book experiences ahead of time, especially for early-morning slots like paragliding or popular scenic trains.

🌤️ Check live cameras and forecasts before outdoor adventures — it makes all the difference when the weather shifts quickly.

💭 What do you think of these ratings? Are there any places in Switzerland you’d add to the list?
