Hi Kedar, It's nearly impossible to cover all the DDLJ locations in Switzerland efficiently within 4-5 days, especially if you want to include Zurich and Interlaken. Here's why: The DDLJ locations are spread across various towns and cities in Switzerland, requiring significant travel time between them. Trains and buses are the primary mode of public transport in Switzerland, and while efficient, they can add to travel durations, especially with connections. Here's a more realistic itinerary that covers some of the iconic DDLJ locations while incorporating Zurich and Interlaken within a 4-5 day timeframe: Day 1: Arrive in Zurich Airport and take a train to Interlaken (around 2.5 hours). Check in to your hotel in Interlaken and explore the town at your leisure. Interlaken is a beautiful resort town situated between Lake Brienz and Lake Thun, offering stunning scenery and a relaxed atmosphere. Day 2: Head to Grindelwald, a car-free village accessible by train from Interlaken (around 30 minutes). This charming village served as the backdrop for the song "Mere Humnasafar." Enjoy the mountain views and fresh alpine air. Day 3: Take a scenic train journey from Interlaken Ost to Zweisimmen (around 1 hour), a village featured in the iconic "Mehadi Laga Ke Rakhna" train scene. In Zweisimmen, you can visit the shop where Kajol buys the cowbell and recreate the train scene (although the platform might have slightly changed since the movie's filming). In the afternoon, continue your train journey from Zweisimmen to Gstaad (around 30 minutes), the charming village where the song "Zara Sa Jhoom" was filmed. Explore the village's car-free streets, upscale shops, and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Optional Day 4: If you have an extra day, you can consider a day trip from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen, a beautiful valley showcasing cascading waterfalls and meadows. This location was used in the song "Tujhe Dekha Toh." While not featuring any specific scenes in the movie, the valley's scenic beauty makes it a worthwhile detour. Day 5: Depending on your departure time, explore Interlaken further or relax before heading back to Zurich Airport for your departure flight (around 2.5 hours by train).
