We were in Switzerland for only 9 days but the half fare card saved us some dollars as we visited 3 cities via train and made bookings for sightseeing. It was very much worth it.
Easy to use. Loved it. Had no issues at any point
Beautiful, but less expensive would be better

What a AWESOME one fit pass - it made travelling in Switzerland affordable and allowed us to enjoy all of the boats/ferrys/cable cars/vaniculars/trams and incredible train routes........Switzland is an incredible country full of great transport options and this pass gave us the ability to use all of these. Even the bernina express tickets were included. You can't go wrong with this pass.
Through the window, the Swiss landscape was a treat for the eyes and heart. The view shifted from snow-capped peaks to lakes. Along the way, the wooden house in the greenish landscape was a pictoriq view.
So efficient, did not check our passports against the rail card once.
Very easy to use , definitely recommend every one.

Considering train travel is not common for us in the US, everything was well marked, and the ability to flash our QR code was VERY convenient!Not sure if we will travel enough throughout Switzerland to have the math work, but the conscience is overwhelming! Eager to hit some museums on the pass as well.
Very easy to use. Single purchase and travel stress free during the valid days.
The ease and transparency of purchase and use... Very good. I recommend it...

The opportunity to use it on boats, cable cars and metro travel was a real.plus
I could not sync with my SBB account. Which is what I thought this was. I never used it and asked for a refund
This pass was such a great investment! I would recommend it to anyone who likes to make spontaneous plans. It is a little pricier than the continuous pass, but it is worth the money. The only thing you should remember is that seat reservations for panoramic trains cost extra.
Like the name says, this pass really was super flexible and fit my loose itinerary perfectly! I could pick my travel days as and when I was up to travel and I never felt the pressure to travel fast. It was awesome to have unlimited access to trains and buses on the days I needed too.
I was nervous before purchasing it, but it is totally worth the buy. It was a relief to not plan everything about my trip in advance. And it worked out very well for me because I wanted to spend some extra time in Interlaken. The flexibility was perfect for my sometimes spontaneous style.
Easy with the app.

Easyly adding new destinations and tickets from the app
It was a little difficult to figure out how to make seat reservations for bernina express. But I got it sorted out. Apart from that, the Interrail Swiss pass was very easy to use. I did not have to stress about buying tickets at all. It is also a mobile pass, so that was also convenient.
This pass was such a great way to explore Switzerland. I used it to visit the Alps, Zurich, Interlaken and Geneva over six days. Sometimes the app was a bit confusing, but the unlimited travel time and money saved more than made up for it.
Buying online was easy but the app was difficult to select your specific trains. I even asked employees and they didn't know but did make every effort to try to help me figure it out. Same case with Glacier Express and Bernini Express when I was loading the tickets, it was a multiple step process and finally got it done but it wasn't simple.

Booking was easy. Typical Swiss efficiency and punctual, wonderful railway and cablcar. I would definitely recommend to go on the first train up as it gets extremely busy .
The trip up to the Top of the World was magnificent- Gondola 🚠 & train was efficient and easy. Once up there- the views are gorgeous- winter wonderland . With lots to keep you inspired- snow cave , restaurants & shops
Everything from the gondola ride to the train ride to the top was magical. Once you step outside and see the view, it was absolute wonder! Everything from snow tubing, to zip lining, to the crystal palace was so awesome. I can't wait to be there again!
The booking experience was easy and helpful. Got tickets beforehand for seamless travel and easy access to all the included venues
The experience was great, although very crowded and touristy. The gondola was broken, so paid for that feature, but did not get in either direction. It was disappointing. The train was filled with large tour groups, so standing room only on the train going down. That being said, I still would recommend.
Very good organized. We enjoyed the visit. Amazing views
Great arrangement. Nowhere to wait in the crowds. Superb surroundings with beautiful views.

It was breathtaking POINT The first view over the glacier, the view from above, simply overwhelming. The experience on and in the glacier was simply surreal.

Easy to book. Ticket worked well, amazing experience. Went early and it was not crowded. The gondola ride up was fantastic with incredible views. The discovery tour was informative and educational. It was all round an unforgettable experience. Would highly recommend.
it was a great experience. Once a life time. love to do it again. Wish to see some arrangement on top to walk in snow. there were but no enough. Like a coffee may be. :) Also wanted to see that eiger exprerss moves up and down with a view. tHIS WAS A NEGATIVE SURPRISE FOR ME.
The tickets were easy to buy and the excursion went very well. It would be important to note in your descriptions that it is possible to take the train even without a reservation. At the departure of the train there are 2 queues, 1 for tickets with seat reservations (which cost more) and one without. Despite this difference, it's perfectly possible to sit on a seat with a Headout reservation.

The experience was great. We took the trains all the way up and caught the gondolas on the way back. We almost skipped the Discovery Tour, but decided to go in right before we left. We didn't understand that this would be the best part of the experience. It has the best views. I would warn that when you book thru Hradout app you don't get a reserved seat on the train, so you will have to wait in line at certain times during the journey.
i had to look for an hour before I remembered that I downloaded an app for the tickets. A mail would have been much easier.
It was simply amazing - as the Swiss would say - perfect weather, much less crowds than I had feared despite the ultra high season, the whole thing was an overwhelming experience in the high alpine mountains, at the beginning of the great Aletsch Glacier, which will stay in my memory forever!

The view from the magnificent Gundelbahn was very impressive. The tobogganing was a highlight for our children. The chocolate that was handed out on the train on the way back was a welcome surprise.

This was an amazing experience. We got really lucky with the weather as it was clear day. Tickets worked fine no issues at all. This will be memorable experience.
All good. Only one little flaw: it is not clear that the round trip should be taken on the same day. We had little trouble because our tickets didn't go through smoothly the next day. The kind personnel let us through promptly, though.
Booking was easy. The app worked if there was network, but without network the app crashed (iPhone). The instructions were a bit unclear: time to return was either 2 or 3 hours and no exact time given. Instructed to go to the "booking point" but there is no such thing. You go to train or scan the code at the gate.
Awesome to get onto plateau and look around at beautiful mountain peaks with snow. Needs to be clearer on which tickets to be used on gondola vs train.
The day we booked was a total white out when we got to the top, but the weather cleared for about 15 minutes and we got some great photos. Amazing experience.
The trip was fun. Perhaps indicate more clearly that you have to get off at Grindelwald Terminal, i.e. not stay on until the last stop. However, I did not know how to get a time for the time slot. Also, the app did not work after we got off the gondola, so I could not show the scan code.

Fabulous journey from start to finish Well organised.views Fabulous all of which where accessible by wheelchair however if should state somewhere that the icecave and glacier are not accessible by wheelchair which was a great shame .
Absolutely loved the views at the top, gondola, restaurant, ice palace - everything was amazing, except the clarity of the information. Our return descent booked for 2 hours later it says, we had no clue when this 2 hours started from. Reservations end at a certain time apparently (couldn't find this information online anywhere either). Time slots? Reservation information? We were so confused so we just went straight up without taking our time, and when we got up, it was packed and then we did take our time. We stayed longer than 2 hours and thankfully the queues and the whole journey down wasn't too delayed when we didn't have a reservation.

The freedom to choose paths and times. Kleine Scheidegg very beautiful. The Jungfraujoch, on the other hand, was a check-in facility, as we didn't actually want to buy watches, but wanted to learn something about the railroad and the area. Who made the statue of the railwayman there?

Stress free! No waiting to buy at the ticket kiosk everytime you want to ride within the region. 99% of the gandolas and cable cars included except the the funicular in Murren. But very happy I purchased it.
On the 2nd day, the Headout app displayed "no connection" and the ticket could no longer be retrieved, even though it was explicitly advertised that the app could also be used to retrieve tickets offline!☹️ Fortunately, I had taken a screenshot of the barcode, which was also recognized by the ticket readers. Nasty glitch!
