Questions about Swiss Pass and advice on itinerary
-
Hi,
My parents and I are going to be in Switzerland for 10 days in September 2015. Having never been to Switzerland before I’d value any advice on my proposed itinerary below. (Just so you know, my parents are in their late 60s and we won’t be doing anything too adventurous – including any hiking excursions!). For example, is it worth spending two nights and 1.5 days at St Moritz? Or could that time be better sent elsewhere (eg. just a few hours in St Moritz and more time around the Interlaken area or a day down in Lausanne?)
I also have a couple of questions about the Swiss Pass:
1) Looking at the proposed train travel in the itinerary, would there be a significant difference between the 1st and 2nd class tickets (apart from price!)?
2) If we did buy 2nd class tickets, is it possible to upgrade them to 1st class for the Glacier Express leg for example?
3) There doesn’t appear to be any senior discounts – is that correct?DAY 1 – Fly into Zurich in afternoon and direct train from airport to Lucerne. Overnight in Lucerne
DAY 2 – Day in Lucerne. Overnight in Lucerne.
DAY 3 – Golden Pass Train from Lucerne to Interlaken in morning. Day in Interlaken. Overnight in Interlaken
DAY 4 – Day trip to Jungfrau. Overnight in Interlaken.
DAY 5 – Train from Interlaken to Zermatt. Overnight in Zermatt
DAY 6 – Day in Zermatt. Overnight in Zermatt.
DAY 7 – Glacier Express from Zermatt to St Moritz. Overnight in St Moritz
DAY 8 – Day in St Moritz. Overnight in St Moritz.
DAY 9 – Train from St Moritz to Zurich. Overnight in Zurich
DAY 10 – Day in Zurich and fly out in evening.Any advice you have would be very welcome! Thanks!
