Train fares and tariffs / INTERRAIL,SWISSPASS OR SWISS HALF FARE CARD?
« on: November 18, 2016, 11:39:08 pm »
Hello,
I am going to take a trip to Switzerland next February. I am going to stay in Vevey,a city close to Lausanne, and it's my first time travelling abroad. I would like to explore Switzerland as much as I can, in the 9 days I will spend there. I am currently searching for the cheapest way to travel by train inside Switzerland, and I can't decide whether Interrail,Swisspass or Swiss half fare card is the best way to do that. Buying tickets at every station I am is not the best way,that I know for sure. I am most interested in visiting Geneva,Lausanne,Bern,Zurich and Lucerne. Does Interrail connect them? Interrail for 8-days travel in 1 month is 141 euros for me, Swisspass for 8 days is 289 euros and Swiss half fare card 112 euros. Should anyone here knows something about these "long-term tickets" or has traveled using them, it would be extremely helpful. Of course, any new suggestion is always welcome!
