    Hi ..Its best to buy the Swiss pass online from India itself . You should get it within a week

    The Swiss pass covers your trip to both Titlis and Jungrauch

    1. Mt TItlis ….Train from lucerne to Engelberg and cable cars onwards . you will have to pay for the cable car trip from Engelberg (not covered under Swiss pass).

    2. Jungfrauch ….Lucerne to Interlaken (hourly Express ) ..From Interlaken you can take the train to Grindewald …and the mountain train onward to Kleine Schendegg ..and Jungrauch . The trip from Grindelwald is not covered under the Swiss Pass.

    You may also consider going to Schilthorn (covered under the swiss Pass) . Lucern – Interlaken – Latterbrunnen – (cable car upto Schilthorn via Murren).

    Trust this helps

    Suggest you contact Rail Europe offices in India . Last year , when i had a similar predicament I picked it up from their mumbai office.
