    Hi there,

    Can any share experience – on purchasing tickets from Geneva to Annecy (France), and back?

    I do have 8-Days Swiss Travel Pass but ended as this is my last Day trip in Switzerland. Also making trip to Colmar (during STP validity) from Lucern/Basel SBB, which I should be fine reading other threads posted.

    Thanks in advance.

    When will this journey take place?

    If it is after December 15 2019, then Geneva – Annecy rail service will be revolutionised and there should be no need to get the slow smelly bus!
