3 days Switzerland, 2 adults, 2 kids. Which pass?

Thanks for joining MySwissAlps, Dar!

Either a 3 day Swiss Travel Pass or a Swiss Half Fare Card will probably work best.

• the Swiss Travel Pass will allows free traveling on trains, buses and boats throughout Switzerland, plus a 50% discount on the Schilthorn ride and a 25% discount on the Jungfraujoch ride up from Wengen/Grindelwald: http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isstravelpass;
• the Swiss Half Fare Card provides a 50% discount on all rides, but no free traveling. You’ll have to buy discounted tickets for each trip you plan to make: http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isshalffarecard.

You can compare the options using the links I just inserted. Detailed information on how the passes work, where they’re valid and how to use them can be found there. You’ll probably need to make calculations if you want to be absolutely sure which pass turns out to be the most economical option for your travel plans: http://www.myswissalps.com/tr ain/ticketspasses/prac tical/chooserailpass. Both passes can best be purchased as print at home passes in advance. Retailers can be found through the “Price” tabs of both pass pages.

Mind that you’ll also need tickets from Paris to the Swiss border: http://www.myswissalps.com/tr aintickets/france.

Hi Dar,

• Basel to Interlaken is free, please see the map under “Where it’s valid”, on the Swiss Travel Pass page Annika referred to.
• Yes, children travel for free, please see the “Price” section on that same page.
