Munich, Salzburg, Switzerland – Eurail and Swiss Travel Pass combo?
-
Hi,
I’m planning a trip for my son’s HS graduation for my family on June 14 for my husband, myself, and our two boys, 16 and 17 years old. I need our trip to be somewhat active!
This is our tentative plan:
6/15 arrive Munich, Rathaus-Glockenspiel, Hofbräuhaus, etc.
6/16 to Salzburg, salt mine, etc.
6/17 to Fussen, Neuschwanstein Castle
6/18 to Lucerne
6/19 Lucerne–Mt. Pilatus Cable Car, Cogwheel Train & Lake Cruise (would some of this be covered under rail passes so I shouldn’t buy it through Viator?)
6/20 to Interlaken, then River Rafting in afternoon
6/21 Grindelwald first adventure-package then Chocolate class
6/22 Jungfraujoch
6/23 to Chillon Castle, then to Gruyeres
6/24 Gruyeres-Cheese, Chocolate, Castle (Gruyeres/Chillon might be in opposite order and start on 6/22 evening)
6/25 to Geneva and fly out Geneva early afternoon.
First, rail passes–should I purchase Eurorail flex tickets for 4 days for the first part of the trip and then the Swiss Pass for 8 days? Does that make the most sense?
Second, Staying in the Interlaken region with what we are doing…should I only be looking at downtown Interlaken, or is it easy to get to some of the further out hotels on the lakes like in Beatenberg or Grindelwald?
Third, anything you would change or add for an active family?
Many thanks for any insight you can provide!!!!
