The best pass/ticket/card for us in Swiss

Welcome Ziela! Which pass is best, depends on your travel plans. If you plan to use public transportation quite a lot and prefer unlimited traveling, without having to buy tickets for each trip, I'd say you should look into a 4 day Swiss Saver Pass. If you'll mainly be making short trips and don't mind purchasing discounted tickets, consider the Swiss Half Fare Card. Which pass is most economical for your trip, should be calculated.

You can plan your trip to Paris with the aid of the timetable. You can leave from any Swiss town; the timetable will tell you how the trip should be made. As you'll see, the trip is a bit shorter if you leave from Lucerne. A Swiss rail pass will be valid up to the border town of Basel, so you'll need an additional regular ticket for Basel-Paris.

Hi Ziela,

1. & 2. To compare, please find full details & downloadable maps on the Eurail Global Pass page and the Swiss Pass page. In short: Eurail does not cover trams and buses, and it covers less mountain transport than a Swiss Pass.
3. I would advice to book hotels at walking distance of the train stations, as that's most comfortable and close to many attractions too. You can find such hotels here. If you do need a tram or bus which is not covered by your pass, then just buy a regular ticket.
4. Eurail is the most comfortable solution, as most of your transfers will be included in one pass, and also it's indeed 1st class traveling. Whether it's the cheapest option can only be determined if you know all of your trips in advance and make the calculations (see Annika's first reply).

I'm glad I could help Ziela! I don't expect that same promotion to become available for Asia too. Anyway, if you buy now you can use these promo codes to get a discount.
