Why visit Bern?
Bern combines historic streets, covered arcades and views around the River Aare with places to pause between visits. Business travellers can also make time for a walk in the centre during a short stay. Plan your first outing around your accommodation and arrival time.
From the railway station area, you can explore the Old City and its squares and historic buildings. The Zytglogge clock tower and Parliament Square offer different stops along the way. Match your sightseeing plans to your flight schedule, the weather and the time available.
Whether you are travelling with family, friends or colleagues, consider suitcases as well as passenger numbers. Allowing some flexibility after your flight leaves time for baggage collection and possible delays on the road. Keep any first-day appointment realistic rather than relying on an exact arrival time.
When booking a Zurich Airport to Bern transfer, distinguish Bahnhofplatz from your hotel address. The reference destination for this route is Bahnhofplatz in 3011 Bern. For a hotel drop-off, check the full address entered in the form and the destination shown in your booking summary.
