Hi there! Im planning a 2 week trip through Switzerland next may and recently purchased a 3 month continuous eu rail pass. Im going to Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen & Zermatt. Will it be worth it to purchase the Swiss rail pass as well or should I save money with discounts.

Thanks ahead of time 🙂

Hello JAB and Welcome to MySwissAlps,

The Eurail Global Pass coverage is explained at http://www.myswissalps.com/eu railglobalpass/validit y.

Whether it makes sense to buy additional pass for Switzerland depends entirely on your plans. Probably unlikely.

Based on your personal itinerary you should read “How to choose the best travel pass” (http://www.myswissalps.com/tr ain/ticketspasses/prac tical/chooserailpass), download the handy spreadsheet calculator and do the math. The spreadsheet also includes links to the “Where it’s valid” page for all available passes. Be sure to check those pages for each pass you are considering. Study the map AND read all the text on those pages to fully understand what is covered by the respective pass.

“Will it be worth it to purchase the Swiss rail pass as well or should I save money with discounts.”

I’m not quite sure what “discounts” you have in mind but they are few and far between without some sort of pass.

Hi JAB99,

use the link with the spreadsheet, Rockoyster gave you. If you stuck, let us know.

These pages might be useful for you too:

• Zermatt: http://www.myswissalps.com/ze rmatt
• Lauterbrunnen: http://www.myswissalps.com/la uterbrunnen
• Grindelwald: http://www.myswissalps.com/gr indelwald
• Jungfrau region: http://www.myswissalps.com/ju ngfrauregion/activitie s

Some Swiss rail passes give you extra discounts (not just for traveling in Switzerland), like if you have Swiss Travel Pass you can enter most of the museums for free: http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isstravelpass/details.
