Q 7: Lastly , will swiss pass also help us in entering switzerland at geneva or do you have any other suggestion for travelling on that route?

Hello Kumar

For the Swiss Rail Passes persons of 16 years and older are considered to be adults. The offer you mention is for persons traveling together and their relationship is of no importance.

As you will be traveling in April you can use the 2 for 1 offer of the Swiss pass. Follow this link for all the relevant features of the Swiss Pass. Ordering can be done on the right (Where to buy your Swiss Pass). You’ll find a PDF-overview of the network on which the Swiss Pass is valid.

The Swiss Timetable may be helpful planning your trips.

Enjoy your stay!

Hello anoopdaga! You can order your tickets this way:
– 1 2 for 1 offer for the two adults of the 1st family plus a free STS Family Card for the children. Depending on the reseller, the STS Family Card can be ordered along or obtained for free at a Swiss railway station upon showing your Swiss Saver Flexi Pass;
– 1 2 for 1 offer for another two adults of the 2nd family plus a free STS Family Card for the children;
– 1 2 for 1 offer for the two adults of the 3rd family plus a free STS Family Card for the 2 children;
– 1 2 for 1 offer for the two youths in de 3rd family. They’ll be considered adults if they’re 16 or older. Buying them this offer too is cheaper than buying two Swiss Youth Passes.

You should fill out your country of residence in the upper right corner of the Swiss Flexi Pass page, select the appropriate reseller and click the button to get to their website. You’ll be able to fill out the right amount of adult travelers there (8 in total including the 2 youths, so you’ll get 4 2 for 1 offers).

As for your itinerary: the timetable allows you to find details on all connections, including the time required to change trains at Chur or at any other railway station. Of course you can also choose to take a later train from Chur to have more time. The quickest and most direct routes from Zurich to Venice are either via Brig and Domodossola, or via Arth-Goldau and Lugano. The latter is a bit more scenic (the connection via Brig includes a rather long tunnel ride). The Bernina Express option is a detour (enter Chur and Pontresina as via-stations to achieve this information in the timetable), but absolutely beautiful.

The coverage of the Swiss Flexi Pass can be reviewed by clicking the link to the downloadable map at the Swiss Flexi Pass page. Depending on your connection, the pass will be valid up to Domodossola, Chiasso or Tirano. The trip to the Rhine Falls is covered too.

Lockers are available at most railway stations.

Hello Wandermann,

But when i searched the site it is saying person between 16-26 is consider as youth. I am really confused that whether i can get 2 in 1 promo offer or not.
As my age is 26 and my wife age is 24. could you help me to clarify my doubt whether i can take the above offer by selecting both as adult.
when i am selecting 2 adults i have to pay only for 1. But when i am selecting 1 adult and 1 youth i am not getting other free. Can you please help me to guide which one to select either 2 adult or 1 adult and 1 youth?

Thanks
Shashank

Hello Wandermann,

Thanks for your valuable suggestion.

Don’t worry about your ages. (Sometimes the age of 16-26 may be of importance for other reasons, but certainly not in your case!)

To benefit from the 2 for 1 offer of the Swiss Pass, just select two adults and everything will work out fine.

I hope this helps. Good luck ordering your 2 for 1 offer.[/quote]

Hello Sean,

Will you be traveling alone or with one or more persons? If you are traveling alone there’s no point in ordering the 2 for 1 offer of the Swiss Pass, otherwise it is indeed an excellent deal.

Yes, the Swiss Pass can be used without additional charges to reach the destinations you mention. If you follow the link you can check where you will be traveling for free, downloading the PDF overview of the network on which the Swiss Pass is valid. Using the normal railway system there’s no need to make reservations.

If you want to visit Jungfraujoch it’s free to Wengen or Grindelwald with your Swiss Pass. From there to Kleine Scheidegg and Jungfraujoch this Pass will give you a 25 % discount.

The timetable can be of help planning your trips.

Enjoy your stay!

Do i require to make a reservation for the trip to Wengen or Grindelwald?[/quote]

No, that’s not necessary! (Reservations are required for train rides with scenic trains, like the Golden Pass, Glacier Express, Bernina Express, etc.)

In the first email A Swiss Saver Pass and the flex pass are referenced both with a2for 1 offer.on the web page only the flex pass is an option . Where do I find the 2 for 1 saver pass at the lower price referred to?
