Great video to watch - so much information! 👍

[BatmanHQYT]

So informative, thank you so much you guys! Doing a Europe trip this August where we're gonna mostly be in cities except for Switzerland, where we mainly want to see the Alps. Looks like getting both a Eurail Pass and the Swiss Travel Pass might be the ideal option here.

Muito obrigada pelas dicas, foi muito difícil encontrar um vídeo que comparasse os dois passes tão bem. Parabéns!!!

Hey guys.. great video giving clear information with example. You made it very easy for us to decide which pass to use while visiting Switzerland.. Keep up the good work :)

theres also half price cards and others.. its very confusing

hello @TheTravelingSwiss; question should I buy 1st class Eurail pass if I do reservation for Bernina Express or can it be 2nd class? There is not choice in the webpage only Eurail pass thats it.

Hi i just want to know if i board on sleeper trains and used eurail pass from point A to B. So it will be like using the pass at night it will use the next day pass? Because night time is until 12 only and it changes the day 12:01 so how does it work on night sleeper train?

Does SBB train serves me to travel from Vienna to Interlaken West Station? If not, what is the alternative train to take ? On SBB mobile, it says it takes 4 transfers and 10 hours 😢

I am planning a family trip from London to paris, Switzerland and Italy planning for a Eurorail pass only as planning to travel swiss mostly by train will I require any other pass?

I would appreciate some advice. My wife and I are traveling to Switzerland in September 2023. We will be on a guided bus/train tour for eight nights beginning and ending in Zurich. After that, we want to take a train to the Berner Oberland region, staying five nights in Wengen. We will not need passes to travel to any other region on our own other than the Berner Oberland region. We will see the rest of Switzerland on the guided tour. I need some advice please on whether we should get from Zurich to Wengen (through Interlaken?) using the Half Fare Pass AND Top of Europe Pass or Half Fare Pass AND Berner Oberland Pass. We want to see Jungfraujoch, Schilthorn, Grindelwald, Gimmelwald, Murren, Lauterbrunnen and perhaps go on the Interlaken lakes. Thank you.

Hi. Anyone can advice if a German Eurail Pass be used to cross over the border to Lucerne in Switzerland? Or do I need to buy a Eurail Global pass to do so? Thanks in advance!
