This new spot for Swiss Tourism, created by Wirz Zurich, pairs South African comedian Trevor Noah with Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer as the unlikely pair get in something of a muddle while shooting a new commercial.

Oscar-winning director Tom Hooper is in charge of The Grand Train Tour, which is produced by TUNA in association with SMUGGLER, as the delights of Switzerland and it's stunning landscape (and obsession with timing) are laid out in this funny four-minute film.

The seemingly mismatched duo engage in some playful banter about why a tourism ad doesn’t need to be funny as they mistakenly board the wrong train, which is also headed in the wrong direction. They immediately realise their blunder but settle back to find they actually quite enjoy their unplanned mistake and, by the end, decide they might even make another one...
