Another rail-pass question

Hi! We will be in Vitznau for three days (Sunday-Tuesday) and doing Rigi/Pilatus/Titlis on those three days (hopefully weather will cooperate!) is the Tell-Pass Summer the right one for us? (We are 2 x Adults, 1 x 21 year old and 3 kids (2/4/6)
Follow up question - on Wednesday morning we will be going to Venice via a half day stop in Milan. Whats our best ticket option for that trip?
Thanks so much for your help. (did a ton of reading on the options and just got more confused lol)

Where are you coming from and how are you getting to Vitznau? will you be in Switzerland for any time before you get to Vitznau?

Thanks! We are getting in Thursday afternoon and hopefully will do a Super-Saver fare to Luzurne after getting something to eat in Zurich. Staying there in the city (touring old city / museums etc.) till Sunday morning when we go to Vitznau and drop our bags on the way up to Rigi.

If you manage to get all that in, the Tell Pass will be a good value at 210 CHF for 3-day per adult plus 30 CHF for the child.

For Vitznau to Milan, you can buy the connecting ticket plus a "Smart" fare for the EC train to Milan connecting at Arth-Goldau. This will be a nonrefundable ticket. The normal fare is 91 CHF, but the advance purchase ticket will get you some reduction from this depending on how far ahead you buy it.

Buy separate nonrefundable tickets from Milano Centrale to Venezia Santa Lucia at Trenitalia at http://www.trenitalia.com/tcom-en, or from Italotreno at https://www.italotreno.it/en
