Please clarify does a "train travel day" only count for a train? and not the smaller associated stuff: lifts to peaks that are included or discounted on the swiss pass, boats, cable cars, funiculars, museums, etc...
family of 4 buying Swiss Pass w Swiss Family Card (kids 6/8) Spending 7-8 days in Switzerland. trying to figure out how many days we will actually be on a train:
train day 1; cross german border from Munich. swiss train into lauterbrunnen (3 nights)
train day 2; day trip on train from Lauterburnnen to interlakken for boat rides on lakes
train day 3; leave Lauterbrunnen by way of Golden Express passing thru Montreux to sleep in Chamonix. (3nights)
train day 4; leaving chamonix for zurich (overnight prior to flight) (1 night)
do I only need say 4/5 of 7/8 on the Swiss Pass (one extra for gruyere or some other cool place along the way?) i have an extra night
i can throw in before, or in between the booked hotels at lauterbrunnen, chamonix.
Also go first class not second , yes?
thanks!
