Swiss Flexi pass and travel to Italy

My family is traveling to Switzerland for 6 days in April. I will be purchasing the 4 day Swiss Flexi Pass as I believe that is our best and least expensive option. We will be staying with a friend in Zurich, but traveling to other parts of Switzerland and into Italy. The first day we arrive we will be in Zurich, exploring and would like to visit some museums, etc. If I understand the way the pass works, I will not be offered free entry to museums, etc until I use my first free day of travel. Is that correct?

Also, we are planning to travel to Lugano and then on to the Como/Bellagio area of Italy. Could you please tell me how/what I need to do and purchase for that portion of the trip. We will be spending one day in that area.

Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated! thank you!

Hi Annika,
Thank you so much for your reply. Yes, I know about the special on the 4 day pass! That is a great deal and I will purchase it!
Do you know the quickest way from Lugano to Bellagio? I think it may be by Bus to Mennagio and then ferry to Bellagio. I think the other option is train to Como and then bus to Bellagio.
Thank you again!

Hi kathyp115,

You can best use the timetable I linked to. It will automatically show the quickest options to travel.
