Thank you so very much for clarifying this Swiss Pass. I'll be in Switzerland next month exploring and I found the choice in trains quite stressful. But you both made it easier. Thank you for your smiles and easy explanation. I've binge watched all or most of your vids and i learned something new each time from you both. Thank you again

[@shaivalchokshi3424]

I recently purchased a Swiss Travel Pass (second class) and have a few questions about using it: 1. For travel within major stations, like going from Lucerne to Kriens, do I need to purchase a separate ticket through the SBB app or at the station, or can I hop on the train with my Swiss Travel Pass? 2. When booking through the SBB app, do I select “GA Travelcard, 2nd class” under the "Travelcards for Switzerland" section in the passenger info? Is that the correct option for the Swiss Travel Pass? 3. For journeys where reservations are mandatory, like the Glacier Express, do I need to buy the ticket separately in advance? And if my reservation is in first class but my Swiss Travel Pass is for second class, can I upgrade to first class through the app or at the boarding station? I’d appreciate any insights or advice from those who have experience with this! Thanks!

[@Bananannable]

Hello! Just wanted to thank you guys for all the videos you posted about the travel passes and which trains to choose. While planning our trip to Switzerland, we knew we wanted to travel by train and we were so overwhelmed with all the different passes and had no idea where to start. We took notes during your videos and were able to find the 2 passes that made the most sense for our trip. The Swiss half fare and the Jungrau pass. Saved us so much money and it was so easy to navigate. We had a wonderful trip and loved traveling by train. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

[@TheTravelingSwiss]

So glad to hear it!

[@atiyaanis]

One question, with half price card, did u purchase the rest tickets on spot for teams, busses or trains, or you booked these in advance. I am not sure if I buy half fare card and later when I arrive in Zurich and buy train tickets, won't the prices of trains and busses will be high? Also additional info- I will take not more than 3-4 trains and few team or bus ride (I guess cities will be mostly walking).

[@kathewright5619]

We are SO happy we found your channel. We are planning our second winter trip to Switzerland and your videos offer the clearest, most easily understood explanation of the Swiss Travel Pass and Half Fare Card. We will be watching all of your videos-you guys are great!

[@Panda-hh8uv]

Thank you SO much for.the info about 1/2 price cards and Berner Oberland travel passes. We had a wonderful trip to Grindelwald and enjoyed the free gondola rides included in our pass plus all of the regional trains and buses. Jungfraujoch tickets were half price - it was just all so helpful!!!🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭

I went to Switzerland to stay there with my mom for 10 days last September and visited so many places.

Thank you two for the amazing work!

Thank you very much! It's really helpful for my family to travel in 2 months' time though it's not my first time to Switzerland. I agree the best pass to get will be Swiss pass compare to other options.

[@nikoexplores]

Thank you so much for this! We're traveling for 6 days this summer, and this is so helpful.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

It is very unfortunate that public transport becomes so pricey in Switzerland which defeat the purpose of using it randomly and put off many to travel to this beautiful country. A visitor cannot plan whether they decide not to travel on a particular day but instead spend time in a town area as some people do make on-the-spot decision but the flexi pass is more pricey and the swiss pass is determined by days(durations)...so it feels like visitors are "trapped" by this system introduced by SBB.

[@hugobazin8052]

Actually, you totally don't get the situation, since the SBB has indeed "trapped" gullible tourists like yourself... the irony in all these videos on YT informing people how to travel Switzerland is they all have one big common mistake: Swiss Travel Pass is not the same as a GA or SwissPass, but effectively they're exactly, and I mean that with very few exceptions, the same... GA is however if you buy it valid for a whole month and is cheaper than even the 6 day Travel Pass. Also, even the travel pass isn't expensive by swiss standards, since you tourists won't blink an eye when it comes to splashing the cash for a 100.- return trip up the Gornergrat which no matter what pass you get, you'll get ripped off, when just 200m down the road is a completely free funicular up to the most sought after photo spot in the country and you all just blunder past it... I guess my dear colleagues at the SBB do have some sense in keeping wine-bag tourists away from the real swiss treasures, oops!

[@Harry_Stylus]

I'm fairly certain you can visit Domodossola in Italy from Brig with the Swiss Travel Pass. (I think it has to be the train from Brig specifically) Also, Bernina lets out at Tirano and is covered but you may need to buy a return ticket? Please don't take my word for it, but I remember those things being true lol. Also, the buses in Liechtenstein are covered with the Swiss pass. You can take a bus into Vaduz from Chur, and any bus within Liechtenstein.

[@rralhr]

Very useful information about the Swiss travel pass thanks so much

[@zelmoy]

Thank you for making it more clear! Ive decided to go with the half fare card bc i can save a little and bc i dont have a lot of big travel days that will ease my journey by having the swiss travel pass by not having to purchase tickets. The rest are all cable cars which 50% is already given with the half fare card..

Hi guys! Thanks for sharing such valuable information about Switzerland. Always so helpful! I do have some questions about traveling with someone with a mobility disability. In your experience, do you think someone with less mobility (cane, assistance to step up and down, and easier trails) is possible and most importantly, enjoyable in the Lauterbrunnen Valley? Our plan is to stay in Wengen as a base and do day trips. The time is April 2023. What should my relative be prepared for? Any suggestion and information will be so appreciated! Thanks again for your informative videos

[@mbonchonsky]

Great and helpful video. I do have a question. I have a Swiss Travel Pass. When I have looked at train schedules and ticket prices I see a lot of trains that I plan to use saying that there is LIMITED AVAILABILTY. Yet, if I don't need to get a ticket with the Swiss Travel Pass, how does the train operator know the demand? Will there be a seat for me when I show up?

Hi Alexis and Louis! Hello from Singapore and thank you for this really clear and informative video! My husband and I are planning for our very first trip to Switzerland (also our long awaited honeymoon since covid restrictions have finally lifted) and your video really helped to relay some of the anxiety we have planning as its our first time to Europe. However we are only able to go in Nov and not earlier, and I've read across different blogs and articles that the low season is abit tricky to plan as some attractions and rides are closed :( we didn't really know this beforehand but will now have to plan our trip anyways. Do you guys have any suggestions on where we can visit during 2nd - 3rd week of Nov? We have gotten the swiss travel pass - top of our list is to see the alps, take a scenic train, boat ide across a lake and visit a cosy town.. would love to hear from you!

[@heythave]

Get the half fare card before buying any pass. If you go to the Interlaken area, you want to get the Oberland Pass.

[@ad200554]

Thank you for this video- it make sense now why Swiss Travel Pass is better choice for us - we don’t need to validate it when u use it just like the FLEX but do I need to use/consume the Swiss travel pass for 3consecutive days - with in 3days (if we choose the 3days)? Is 3days means in Swiss travel pass is 👉🏾1st day I can use it In Bernina Express? The following day 2nd day I will use in Jungfrau? And the 3rd day which is the next day I will use it book the Lucerne? Is this how it works for 3days Swiss Travel Pass?

Dear Alexis and Louis, we just came across your video and found.it.very useful.

Day 1: airport to st moritz Day 3: Glacier express to Zermatt (Need a pass to go up maintains within this region ?) Day 7: zermatt to Grindelwald , (Need a pass like Top of.Europe or others?) Day 12: Grindelwald to Luzern Day 17: Luzern to St.Gallen Day 22: St Gallen to Salzberg For cities we stay longer than one day, we plan to take day trips to areas nearby, so we will take either train, bus or boat, ets. As our trip is around 3 weeks in Switzerland, we want to find ways to make it more cost efficient, especially transportation. Appreciate your advice on it. Thanks a lot.

Hi. I am going to Swiss from 31 Oct to 5 Nov. This are the three cities that I will be visiting which are Zurich 1N, Lucerne 2N and Interlaken 2N. I most likely will be going to Mt Pilatus, Jungfrau, probably 1 or 2 lake ride and 1 or 2 museums. On 5 Nov, I am going to travel from Interlaken to Italy, Milan. Base on above, which is better Travel Pass or Half Fare pass?

Hi I do not think you wanted to to mislead but you did. The Swiss pass covers all of the RHB including the Tirano terminal. One the best trips on Swiss rails is from Locarno to Domadosila almost all in Italy and covered by the Swiss pass. The trip to mont blanc in France is cover by the Swiss Pass. The bus ride from the Eurosport, in France to Basil is covered. The best bus ride in Switzerland is from Lugano to st moritz almost all in Italy and cover, less the seat reservation. A travel hack, you can ride local trains operated by the RHB and MGB that cover the same routes as the famous expresses without the VERY expensive seat reservations.

Hello there, thank you for the great video. Super helpful! We are a family of 3 adults and after comparison, we figured that Swiss Travel Pass will be the best option for our itinerary. But I have two practical questions that I hope you can help me with. Question 1: Do I have to install the SBB app to upload/show the ticket? Question 2: Can we load all 3 tickets on one mobile phone? Or do we have to use 3 phones for 3 individual tickets? Thank you in advance!

[@entalpa]

Question 1: You can add your ticket to the app or you can print it. Best way is to do both. For example if your phone battery die, then you will still have the paper version to show. Question 2: Yeah, this is possible, but not recomended. Best is that every head has his own ticket on mobile or print with him.
