Swiss Half Fare Card combined with museum pass
-
We (two seniors) and will be in Switzerland in two weeks. We are on an tour with transport for 9 days then we will be based outside Lucerne for 9 days.
First, we are thinking about purchasing combination of a half fare pass and a museum pass not knowing how many trains we will use as we will have a car near Lucerne when the tour is over. A full Swiss pass flex or consecutive day pass (8 day version) appears to cost several hundred dollars more than the half fare/museum combination. BUT might the half fares we will make up for any savings in this difference. I know it depends on the amount of public transport we use. Tough to balance with out a definite schedule for the Lucerne stay. We might use the museum pass while on the escourted tour and surely during the Lucerne stay (18 days total.)
Second, am I correct that there is no particular advantage in buying any of the passes available for Switzerland while still in the USA, but rather buying at the Zurich airport or the Bern main station (first night) will be essentially equal in cost.
What might I be missing here?
