Hello,

I am visiting with my family on 24th of May from Aalen (Germany via Karlsruhe, Basel , Bern) to Interlaken by train. I will stay in the region for 3 days until 27th of May. And return on 27th by train via Basel to Germany.
During my stay in Interlaken, I will be visiting Schilthorn by Cable Car and will visit Jungfrau (Or some other Mountain Train) if time permits and I would also be taking the Golden Pass Panaroma train Once. Will use the Boat ride in one of the lakes in Interlaken.
I am very much confused between Swiss Half fare and Berner Oberland pass. Which one would you suggest me? It can also be a completely different pass.

Thanks

Hi Udhaya,

Welcome to MySwissAlps.

Thanks for sharing your plans.  We have guides to both the passes you mention. Do take a read, you’ll probably find all the necessary information here, if not feel free to reach out:

• Swiss Half Fare Card:  https://www.myswissalps.com/travel-ticket/swiss-half-fare-card/
• Berner Oberland Pass:  https://www.myswissalps.com/travel-ticket/berner-oberland-pass/

As for which one would be better, the only way to sure, is to carry out some maths.  Take a look at our “how to choose a rail pass” link below, it’ll guide you through the process:

• https://www.myswissalps.com/travel/tickets/compare/

Thereon, your best pass option(s) will be displayed.

All details for a ride on the GoldenPass route can be found in the link below. If you are intending to travel in Prestige Class, you’ll need a seat reservation, this is independent of your ticket or rail pass.

I hope this gets you started.

Kind regards,

Yolanda
