Eurail pass (10 days) vs Swiss Travel Pass 15 days
-
Dear all
I would like to thank you guys for your great website, as it really makes easier planning one’s trip to Switzerland.
I wanted to know which pass will suit me the best. This is my second time in Switzerland (last time in April 2017) and I have already done the Bernina express tour, lived in Lauterbrunnen; done with the Jungraujoch tour and some hiking in Wengen and Kleine Scheidegg.
This time I would like if I can fit the Glacier Express tour in my itinerary? I wanted to explore more of the east and the south of Switzerland also cutting some costs. My current plan:
(a bit flexible and please suggest if I have some other options also)
- Jan 5: Arrive in Geneva, take train to Bern (spend the night)
- Jan 6: Travel to St. Gallen (explore and then spend one night there) (library and museum visit)
- Jan 7: Go to Appenzell, explore and spend the night back in St.Gallen or Appenzell
- Jan 8: Back to Bern and explore the city or some other alternate plan you might suggest??
- Jan 9-12: Rest and explore the city (are there any day trips from Bern and back??)
- Jan 13: Go to some town near Zermatt (Ernin or St.Niklaus?) explore it
- Jan 14: Explore Zermatt in the day and back to Bern by night (~2hour journey)
- Jan 15: Work trip to Lausanne and back to Bern
- Jan 16-Jan19: staying in Lausanne for work (just some city travel)
- Jan 19: Train back to Geneva and fly back to Singapore
As I understand most of my travel is covered by the 10 days Euro-rail 2 country pass?? And which is around 150CHF cheaper than the Swiss travel pass 15 days. Also I am assuming the train to Appenzell is covered by the EU rail pass. The only thing not covered is the city travel (will it be more than 50 for my plans??)
Kind regards
