Illustration of Crash Landing on You in Switzerland

Magic Switzerland's Crash Landing on You in Switzerland is an eight-day self-guided package designed for fans of the Korean drama series retracing the show's Swiss filming locations. The tour begins in Interlaken and ends in Zurich, staying four nights in Interlaken and three in Zurich at four-star hotels with breakfast included. You travel independently using the Swiss Travel Pass 2nd class for eight days and a custom itinerary with hotel directions and activity suggestions. The route combines rail journeys, boat cruises on lakes Brienz and Zurich, a walk across the 340-meter suspension bridge in Sigriswil, and a ride on the Jungfrau Railway to Jungfraujoch at 3,454 meters, where the Sphinx Observatory from the series is located. Day 5 takes you to Lake Lungern, another filming location, before continuing to Zurich's historic old town. Each day offers optional activities, from paragliding and canyoning to museum visits and shopping. This tour suits independent explorers comfortable navigating train connections and choosing their own pace, as well as couples following the drama's romantic journey through the Swiss Alps.
