Which pass should I get?

Hi piglet! Since you're traveling in October, the 2 for 1 deal is applicable indeed (as long as you're not a Swiss resident). This is a bit more expensive than a Swiss Half Fare Card for one person, but it does offer a lot more in terms of free traveling. You could choose the 4 day Swiss Saver Pass for October 3 to 6 and use a Zurich Card for the two remaining days in Zurich.

Hi piglet. Purchase prices can be found if you fill out the right information at the Swiss Pass page. I mean that the 2 for 1 pass for 2 people is more expensive than a Swiss Half Fare Card for 1 person, but the 2 for 1 Swiss Pass allows both of you to travel for free during 4 days, whereas the Swiss Half Fare Card allows discounted traveling only. Even the Rigi would be for free with a Swiss Pass. So despite the price difference, the 2 for 1 Swiss Pass may in all be a more economical deal. You can calculate though to find out for sure. Point to point tickets wouldn't be economical at all. Purchase options are also listed at the page I mentioned. As far as we know, the 2 for 1 pass should be purchased online.


If you choose to get the Swiss Pass, note that you can best use your Half Fare Card for the trip to the Jungfraujoch (50% discounted with a Half Fare Card, 25% with a Swiss Pass). Your husband can use the Swiss Pass for this trip too.
