Regional Pass (Geneva-Alps) vs Swiss Travel Pass
-
Hello,
My family and I (2 adults and 4 children age 17, 15, 12 and 10) will be travelling from Gevena airport to Chateau-d’Oex on 23/12/2016 and leaving on 1/1/2017. We intend to buy Swiss Travel Pass – 2nd class (and Family Card) but chanced upon the broucher on Regional Pass – lake Geneva-Alps; and now wondering which is the “best” pass suitable for us.
Itinerary is as follows:
- 23 December – Arriving in Geneva airport. Take train to Chateau-d’Oex (where we will be based until we leave on 1 January 2017). Taking train to Montrexu (to visit Christmas market in Montreux) after leaving luggage in apartment. Taking train back to Chateau-d’Oex in the night.
- 24 December – Ski at La Braye & region, depending on ski instuctor. Train to Montreux/Veyvey in the afternoon and back to Chateau-d’Oex.
- 25 December – Ski at La Braye & region, depending on ski-instructor. Train to Montreux/Veyvey in afternoon and back to Chateau-d’Oex.
- 26 December – Chateau–d’Oex – Broc & Gruyere – Chateau-d’Oex (Not taking the chocolate train / Visiting Maison Caliller at Broc)
- 27 December – Morning – Ski at La Braye. Afternoon – Chateau–d’Oex – Montreux (visiting Chillon Castle) – Chateau-d’Oex
- 28 December – Chateau–d’Oex – Montreux and Veyvey (visiting Alimentarium & Chaplin’s Museum) – Chateau-d’Oex
- 29 December – Morning – Ski at La Braye. Afternoon – Chateau–d’Oex – Rochers–De–Naye – Chateau–d’Oex
- 30 December – Chateau–d’Oex – Glacier 3000 – Chateau–d’Oex
- 31 December – Ski at La Braye & region, depending on ski instructor. May also take train to Gstaad.
- 1 January – Take train from Chateau-d’Oex to Geneva airport (one way)
Question: Based on our itinerary, my initial thought is it might be more economical to get Regional Pass (7 days) but now unsure which is more economical for us, based on our itinerary (skiing at sight-seeing). There is a promotion for Geneva-Alps Regional Pass now (3 full + 4 days’ reduction) .
Appreciate your advice on this. Thank you.
