Which Swiss Travel Pass and Bernese-Oberland pass

Hello! I am trying to choose the best Swiss Travel Passes for my upcoming September trip. Here's our itinerary:

Arrive in Zurich
Zurich to Lucerne and stay 4 nights
Lucerne to Zermatt and stay 2 nights
Zermatt to Wengen and stay 4 nights
Take train from Wengen to Colmar, France

We plan to do all the big tourist stuff that costs money such as Mt. Rigi, Mt. Pilatus, Gornergrat Railway, Schynige Platte, etc. We are not that interested in the Jungfrau railroad.

I was thinking of getting the Swiss Travel Pass for 6 or 8 Flex Days and the Bernese-Oberland Pass for 4 days. Does this sound like the best option? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That is probably a good combo. Note that the mountain transport in and around Zermatt is 50% with the STP Flex as is Mt.Pilatus. The Berner Oberland Regional Pass will be great for your time in that region. Note the BO pass validity starts at Brig so bear that in mind when deciding how you want to use your Flex Pass days.
