Hi Annika,
Thanks so much for you quick reply. Yes I had found the rail pages but I got a bit confused with the children. Specifically, with the Swiss half fare card it says if I buy one for me, then the children can then get a family card for free, and can then travel for free if they are with me. Does this mean that if I get 50% off say the Jungfrau train, or a cable car, the children will be free on that train/cable car? Or will they pay 50% like me? Is the family card just free anyway, no matter what rail tickets I buy?
With the VIP pass, when I tried to purchase one and tried to add on 2 children, it offers me a choice of child without family card but no option for child with family card. Does this mean there is no discount for having a family card? It just seems to be a cheaper price. So my question would be, if I were to go for VIP passes, is there any point in getting a family card as it wouldn't give me any additional benefits to the VIP pass?
Finally on the Swiss travel pass, it gives details about % discounts on some of the cable cars but I can't find details on the funicular to Harder Kulm, unless this is called something else?
Many thanks again for your help, apologies if I have failed to understand the differences between the passes.
