Trip with Half Fare Card vs Swiss Travel Pass
-
Hi guys,
I will be
travelling with my wife to Switzerland for 8 days in the first half of June. I would like to get your suggestions regarding the utility of swiss half fare card vs Swiss Travel Pass.I will be
travelling to Zurich and doing the sightseeing by walk, then taking the cruise on Zurich lake, using trams/buses/trains liberally for two days. I will also be visiting theRheine falls.Then I will be
travelling to Luzern to do localsigntseeing , Pilatus, and Titlis over 2 or 3days.The next two days I will be
travelling to Interlaken mainly forJungfrauhoch and Trummelbach falls. Will do the lake Brienz/Thun cruise if time permits. Again two days in Interlaken. AddSchilltorn ifi reduce one day from Luzern.From there
i will be going back to Zurich for the last day and my flight back to India.Considering that I travel so much within a city and also to mountain tops I am in a dilemma to choose between the passes. For within city travel and using the trams/buses/trains I feel the STP will be way more helpful because I
dont have to buy tickets anywhere. But for Jungfrauhoch I feel Half fare card is better and for Titlis both offer 50% offer.If anyone can help me
reagarding how to use my swiss half card to buy 50% reduced tickets on trams and buses it would be very helpful as I feel the tram stationsdont have ticket stalls. If buying tickets everytime I board a tram/bus is not a big headache then I would prefertravelling with a Swiss Half Fare card as it is valid for 1month and cost CHF330 lesser than STP for 8days for two people.
