Booked airfare and hotels, now I need to decide on train passes and I am not sure what is most cost effective. I don't have any activities planned yet, but i expect my husband and I will go on a bunch of cogs, funiculars and boats - obviously depending upon weather. Traveling October 1 - October 16, 2024.
Itinerary:
Land in Milan
Milan to Locarno - 2 nights
Locarno to Zermatt- 2 nights
Zermatt to Montreux - 2 nights
Montreux to Wengen - 6 nights
Wengen to Lucerne - 3 nights
Lucerne to Zurich for flight home
Are the Oberland pass and 1/2 fare better than swiss pass? Also how many days should I buy the passes for?
Also any recommendations for stops along the train routes for a few hours of sightseeing.
Thanks in advance for any advice!!
