    I’m traveling from Boppard to Interlaken via Basel with a Bernese Oberland pass (no pass for Germany). I believe I read that I only purchase a pass through to Basel since the rest of the journey is covered. How does that work? Do I have to change trains? How do I inform the necessary party of my pass? Should I book the fair in advance? I’m traveling October 9. Thank you in advance.

    – Regionale Pass Berner Oberland is only valid in the Berner Oberland. In you case from Bern to Interlaken.

    – You must buy a ticket Boppard to Bern. Boppard is a very small station, with no ticket office. The best you can buy the ticket on line or at a greater station in advance.

    Thank you. I’m in Boppard now…beautiful place. When I purchase the ticket from boppard to bern, do I just show my body pass once I’m on the Train? I am going to Bingen tomorrow. Maybe they will have a staffed train station. I asked at the train information window in Cologne, but he had no information.

    Hi Darlinnan,

    Sorry, I am not sure what you mean by “body pass”. Can you explain please?

    Thanks! Upon request, you need to show the pass after Bern, and your ticket before Bern. Enjoy the ride!
