Thank you for your prompt reply.
The Luzern Interlaken Express is cheaper and absolut scenic, one of the most beautiful train lines we have in our country.
The journey via Bern is taking more time and is, what concerns point-to-point tickets, almost double the cost of the Luzern Interlaken Express.
Great!!! Thank you so much 😊
