Discount on buses & cable cars without Swiss Pass
-
Hello, I am planning on being in Switzerland from July 11 th to July 19th. My plan involves flying into Geneva, staying the first two nights on Lake Geneva near Montreux, the next three nights in Berner Oberland & the last three nights in Lucerne before heading back to Zurich for our flight back to Chicago. Because we have a total of eight travelers (two families), and nature of my travel noted above, I quickly concluded it would be too expensive and inconvenient (one elderly person) to not rent a car. Based on everything I have read so far, it sounds like everyone recommends taking the train. Here are my questions:
1) I will likely go to a number of towns & mountains. I understand that not having the swiss pass would mean I would be paying full fare for all the inner city trains / trams / buses / boat rides I would take as well as the cable cars. How expensive can this get?
2) Is there an alternative to swiss pass that would give me discounts on the cable cars, boat rides & buses?
3) I will most likely visit Mt. Titlis, Jungfraujoch & Matterhorn – (a) is it worth going to all three or do they offer similar views & (b) if I do all these three, should I go on the cog train up to Rochers-de-Naye?
4) Any tips on how / where best to park when we drive to these towns?
Apologies if I mis-spelled any of the names (tried to copy / past as much as possible!) Thanks for all your help.>>Ashish
