Hi everyone,
I am Yap from Singapore. My wife and me will be travelling first time to Europe for twelve days and I need advice on the train pass purchase.
My itinerary is as follow: Fly to Rome (stay 2 nights), take train to Venice (stay I night), to Milan (1 night), to Zermatt (2 nights), to Interlaken (3 nights), to Lucerne (2 nights) to Zurich Airport back to Singapore.
In Zermatt, we will go Gornergrat. In Interlaken, we will go Lauterbrunnen , Jungfraujoch, Berg & Thun.
In Lucerne, we will go Engelberg & Mount Titlis.
Can anyone advice shall we purchase 8 days swiss travel pass? Or any other economical or cheaper option to travel around Switzerland based on above itinerary?
As for Italy (Rome to Venice to Milan then to Zermatt)? is there any train pass which is feasible or economical for us based on above itinerary?
Please help. Thanks very much to all.

Hi Yap, welcome to MySwissAlps!
Yes, the 8-day Swiss Travel Pass will fit your itinerary well. The only option that may or may not be cheaper is the Swiss Half Fare Card. The below pages provide all details:

We’re no experts on all the Italian rail options here, but often point to point tickets work well there if you do a limited number of city to city transfers: http://www.myswissalps.com/tr aintickets/italy. It looks like this applies to you as well. Additionally you may want to have a local public transport pass in each of the cities.
