Has anyone used this pass to travel through Switzerland? I got a quote for a 10 day
unguided rail trip from Zurich to Zurich which include several hotels along the way for $9,530 for two people. It did not include airfare. I thought this was a lot and wondered if we got the Pass we could do this on our own. Any suggestions? Thanks so much! Joy

The Swiss Pass would save you a lot of money-just use the SBB app for schedules and connections… also free boats, buses, museums, some cable cars
and discounts on others…

Or consider the half fare card if there’s not that much travel on trains…

My trip reports might give you some ideas for a “do-it-yourself” trip using the Swiss Travel Pass.

That is an outrageous price! Just go to the SBB office when you arrive in Switzerland, and they will sell you a half fare card ( if needed) with train tickets for every leg of your trip.
