Help with passes and what is open
-
Good day everyone,
I’m new here and would like your precious help please. Yes I have a swiss pass question. I have tried, believe me, before asking, but I am still confused.
Will be in Switzerland from May 20 departing any time on May 24 to Paris. Here is what I have so far:
Friday May 20, 2016 hubby and I will be arriving from Germany. I’m planning on buying in advanced a $29 train ticket that covers from Freigburg to Tirano on the Bernina Express. (I know BEX is from Chur to Tirano) So the $29 should cover from Basel to Zurich (we are spending that night in Zurich)
Next day – Saturday May 21 – Zurich to Chur to take Bernina Express. So on this leg of the trip would be per person 29 plus reservation 14 = $43. On the way back, we wont take the BEX. will take regional trains. Tirano to Zurich Flughafen. $47 per person
Night of Saturday May 21 spend night in Zurich.
Sunday May 22 train from Zurich to Murren. $45.80
From here on…. I am lost because I am confused about what is open what is not, so I don’t know what passes I have to buy to enjoy cable cars and entrances, etc. Also, I am not sure if the cable car from the station getsme to the hotel in Murren. If I’m doing this math correct, as from May 20 to the 22 we would be spending approximately $135.80 per person. And that doesn’t include any activities on the 22 or 23 or 24.
The half fare card is $120. So it would be $120 + everything else half price with the exception of the $29 coming from Germany and the reservation on the Bernina. So: 120 + 23.5 +22.9 + whatever else. Am I doing this correct? Sorry I am the worst when it comes to numbers.
We are interested on looking at beautiful nature, prestinewater, biking, hikes, cable cars,suspension bridges (would love to do the Murren Via Ferrata but according to what I have seen online it will be close on our dates). Not interested on cities or museums. Don’t want to spend time on a cruise either.
Thank you!
Kat
