Hello travel2011,

For starters you could check the timetable, where you can see how long every leg will take and how you should travel.
I think a couple of hours will be enough for a city tour and the same goes for viewing points, but that's an average, as you will probably spend more time at Jungfraujoch than at Schilthorn and Titlis.

A four day Swiss Pass might be convenient as you plan to travel quite a lot, especially if you plan to travel to Rome by train. It will cover the entire Swiss leg of this trip.
