I purchased the Kindle version of this guide to use during my Swiss travels. I returned it within ten minutes. Unlike the print edition, there is no index. I want to be able to look up a town quickly on my iphone. Without an index, I have to go through the contents which gives regions and "turn" through pages to get to particular towns. Very tedious and defeats the purpose of a digital book with hyperlinks. I can't recommend the digital version of this book.

I used this guide and the Rick Steve's guide for a trip to Switzerland. This guide if far better than Frommer's or Fodor's but I agree it needs to be updated for current restaurants and lodging.

I purchased this guide along with the Michelin guide. The Michelin guide was useless, I primarily used this guide for my trip. The only gripe I have is that it needs to be updated as a number of the restaurants were no longer open. Other than that, I highly recommend it for Swiss travel.

This Switzerland guide book was adequate for my two day trip in Geneva and Lausanne. I didn't use it extensively, as a two day trip is rather quick. It was informative for telling me about trains between the towns, the most important activities, good restaurants, etc.
