Did you know that there is hardly any other country where public transport is as well developed as in Switzerland? The networked cycle schedule creates a continuous transport chain across all modes of transport (train, bus, tram, ship, cable car). This makes traveling with Swiss public transportation comfortable and easy. Therefore you can easily do your business trip without a car.

An overview of the public transportation system in Switzerland:

1. Railway: Two thirds of the Swiss railway network belongs to the SBB (Swiss Federal Railways). The remaining railways are called private railways. In the mountains, mostly narrow-gauge railways are in operation, for example the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB). There are important border stations with a connection to the Swiss rail network in Basel (France, Germany), Buchs (Austria), Chiasso (Italy), Brig-Glis (Italy), Geneva (France) and St. Magrethen (Austria, Germany).

2. Bus: The most important bus company in Switzerland is the "Postbus", which is owned by the Swiss Post and thus indirectly owned by the federal government. The Postbus mainly drives in rural regions, while private companies or urban transport companies operate in urban areas.

3. Trams: In Basel, Bern, Geneva, Neuchâtel and Zurich, trams have been running in part since the middle of the 19th century. They are mainly used to move around larger cities.

4. Mountain railway: There are many mountain railways, especially in the Alps. While the new systems are mostly cable cars, there are still numerous rack and pinion railways from earlier times.

5. Shipping: Shipping companies offer scheduled connections and excursions on many lakes in Switzerland. Depending on the location, these offer impressive panoramas and landscapes. So you can also see something of the country on a business trip.
