    We are traveling from Zurich to Interlaken on September 1 and returning to Zurich September 6. We will travel by rail to and from the Zurich Airport. We will stay in Interlaken the entire time and travel to local attractions via rail, boat, mountain funicular and trains. We are interested in seeing Brienz and Brienzersee, Meiringen, Thunersee, and Kleiner Scheidegg. We may also go to Lauterbrunnen. Can you please suggest the best pass for this itinerary?
    Thank you!

    Hi Jak2jak99, and welcome! A Swiss Half Fare Card would be a good pass for your travel plans. A Swiss (Flexi) Pass would probably be too expensive, since you haven’t planned on making long and expensive train journeys. The Swiss Half Fare Card offers 50% discount on nearly all trips and often proves to be the most economical solution for itineraries with local trips mainly. Does that help you decide? Best regards,
