Best Swiss rail pass for 7 days
-
Dear Swiss experts,
Hello once again! After december that i visited engadin valley now i have chosen again Switzerland for my summer holidays. Your help to choose engadin valley and finally stay in pontresina was of significant importance! This trip was one of the best for us so far!
To the present now, i am coming with my husband for 8 days (9-16 of august), airport of arrival and departure is zurich. I have read A LOT to plan this trip and choose which places to visit, however the most difficult thing to do, still remains the choice of the best “pass”. I have done the math in your recommended excel for the option of swiss travel pass for 8 days and the swiss half fare card, as well as with some other passes with the cost to be approximately the same high (around 500 euro pp)!!! We are going to stay in lauterbrunnen and we are going to visit murren, wengen, interlaken, harder kulm, mount pilatus and mount rigi, lucerne, bern, do the golden pass to montreux, jungfraujoch, schilthorn plus the route to and from zurich airport to lauterbrunnen (just to give you an idea of the area of interest).
I am also thinking that the days of travelling will be 7 full days so buying an 8 days pass will not be used to the best of it! I have also taken to consideration tell pass, jungfraujoch pass and bernese oberland pass as well as a combination of them (3 days and 4 days from 2 different passes) without being a less expensive option. All in all,i am of the opinion that the best choice is the swiss travel pass for 8 days because it provides us with the freedom of unlimited travelling with no need to have tickets.To sum up, i would like your opinion on this based on your experience, in case i am missing something that may be a cheaper option. We are travelling from Greece but as far as i can see there is no available promo.
Once again thank you for the great job you do!
Sofia
