    Me and my wife would be travelling to Switzerland in the month of June. My complete itinerary is :
    1st day in Zurich with Rhine falls – stay in Zurich for the night.
    2nd day in Lucerne – Excursion to Titlis/Rigi/Pilatus and then some sight seeing in Lucerne. Stay in Lucerne for the night.
    3rd day in Interlaken – Excursion to Jungfrauch and then sight seeing in Interlaken. Stay in Interlaken for the night.
    4th day in Zermatt – Sight seeing arnd Zermatt, Montreux etc. Spend the night there.
    5th day in Geneva – Sight seeing and leave for Paris.

    Keeping the above itinerary in mind, we do not want to spend on Swiss Pass, and looking at the Point to Point tickets, we are thinking whether it would make more sense in getting a half fare card. We are on a budget and want to save as much as possible in our travel expenses.

    Hello rahulagrin,

    There is an overview of all possible passes, to be found here. Just click “More information, prices and ordering” for more specifics. I think any pass will be better than buying point to point tickets, as your itinerary has some travelling and excursions. You can use the Swiss timetable to plan your trips and to find prices. Please note you will have to uncheck the half fare option to get a non-discounted price.
    This link about how to calculate your trip may be of use too.

    I hope this helps, have a nice trip!
