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?

I bought a Swiss Half Fare Card from Headout. I made the right decision to buy this card as I could save a lot of money for transportation fare. I recommended you to buy this card if you plan to visit Switzerland. Even if you visit Switzerland for 4-5 days, it is worth buying as you need to take different types of transportation to get to your destinations.

Excellent product - no stress in a que in front of a cash desk and saves money. As it saves even time, this is again about saving money, because time is money. Double profit for one price, which is lower than for individually bought tickets.

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.

Take a look at this table to understand the different benefits of the Swiss Travel Pass, the Swiss Half-Fare Card, and the Interrail Switzerland Pass.

Is the Swiss Travel Pass worth the investment?

  • If you’re aiming to ride the iconic Glacier Express and other scenic trains like the Bernina or Gotthard Express, the pass offers great value. Individual tickets to these panoramic routes can be quite expensive, and this pass offers huge savings plus stunning views!
  • If you’re planning to move between cities every few days using the public transport system, then the pass can save you a lot. With this, you can hop on trains across the country without being tied to rigid schedules.
  • If you tend to plan trips at the last minute, the pass is a great fit. It lets you book travel just a few days in advance, giving you maximum flexibility.
  • If you dislike sticking to a set plan and want the flexibility to travel on a whim, then the pass suits you perfectly. 
  • If you’re keeping your mountain excursions to Rigi and Stanserhorn (both free with the pass), then you’ll appreciate the savings. These iconic mountains are easily accessible and offer sweeping views, so you won’t need additional passes for scenic peaks.
  • If your main focus is exploring the cities but not necessarily the mountain railways, you’ll still find the pass useful. The pass offers unlimited travel on trains, buses, and boats across Switzerland, making it easy to hop between cities like Zurich, Lucerne, Geneva, and Bern.
  • If you’re set on completing all five panoramic routes of Switzerland, then the pass will make your journey more affordable and straightforward. Instead of buying separate tickets for each leg, you only need to book seat reservations.
