I’m traveling to Switzerland with my 15 year old and 11 year old. Fly in to Zurich June 17. 2 nights in Mürren, 2 nights in Wengen, then fly out of Zurich.
Which rail pass makes sense In this case? I’ve been thinking the Swiss travel flex pass and free family card. With it, I understand I will be paying discounted fares above Wengen and Mürren. Will my kids travel for free on these legs to destinations above where we are staying? Or will I be paying the full rate or discounted rate for them?
If I am accessing discounted rates with my pass, does it count as one of my days of use of the flex pass?
Will I likely need to use my pass every day if we are staying in the region doing hikes and local excursions and adventures?
Wondering if it makes sense to buy 3 or 4 flex days for my 5 days in Switzerland, or if I need 6.
Should I book rental bikes and excursions (like paragliding and mount peak visits) in advance? Or can I be spontaneous based on weather and still find availability?
