    Hello Everyone again,

    Is it cheaper and guaranteed admission to buy tickets to the attraction sites like Glacier 3000, Matterhorn Glacier Paradise and Gornegat Observatory if I buy the tickets once I am there or avail of the tickets sold on the Viator website?

    I have read somewhere that I can obtain discounted tickets to these attraction sites just by showing my Swiss Travel Pass. True?

    I did get a discounted online Glacier Express fare just by acknowledging that I have a Swiss Travel Pass Flex. 🙂

    Just be aware that the Swiss Travel Pass Flex is only of any value for getting discounts on days which you nominate/use as a travel day.

    From Viator you normally get a voucher which you will need to exchange for a ticket at the local ticket office.

    The Gornergrat train and the Klein Matterhorn(Glacier Paradise) cable way are both discounted 50% if you use a travel day on your Swiss Travel Pass Flex. See http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isstravelpassflex/vali dity.

    Hi,

    In addition to what Rockoyster mentioned, you can buy tickets online in advance or on the day depending on what you prefer.

    Prices are equal or very similar, and availability is not an issue.

    Have a great time!

    Maria.
