Railbookers · Independent rail package

Salzburg and Munich from Zurich

Rail loop from Zurich through Salzburg's musical history to Munich

Railbookers runs this 8-day, 7-night independent rail package that starts and ends in Zurich, with train travel through Switzerland and Austria to Salzburg and Munich. In Zurich, the trip opens with a city tour covering the city's historical and natural sights, along with a tasting of Swiss chocolate. From there, the train continues to Salzburg, a city the description ties to musical history, with a visit to Mozart's residence among the highlights. The itinerary also includes time in Munich before the train returns to Zurich to complete the loop. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers plan their own sightseeing in each city and make their own way to the train for each leg. The night-by-night schedule across the three cities is not detailed beyond the total of 8 days and 7 nights. It suits independent travelers who want a mix of Swiss city sights, Austrian musical history, and German culture on one round-trip route from Zurich.
