5 9 Sep visit Mt Titlis. Proceed to Luzern (Lucerne).

6. 10 Sep visit around Lucerne.

Q (C) How many days Swiss Travel Pass would you suggest for above travel plans

Q (D) Which of Grinderlwald/ Murren/ Wengen have better views and is a better place to stay?

Hi Cupid,

A) D) Grindelwald, Mürren and Wengen are all in the mountains, so any of them will work fine for you. All are popular places. Grindelwald is the largest town. The other two are car free so quieter.

B) You need to buy a ticket for the Venice to Domodossola leg. The Swiss Travel Pass covers the rest of the trip. Please see here for where to buy:

C) A 15 day pass would work well. An 8 day pass would not work as it leaves you with 3 days without a pass, and a 15 day pass does not cost that much extra.

E) You’d better stay in one town. The Jungfrau region is small and you can easily see all towns on day trips.
