Hi all,

We are planning a 22 days trip to Europe (16 days)  & Switzerland (6 days) in November starting from Frankfurt and ending in Switzerland. We plan to cover Frankfurt (day trip to Heidelberg) > Dresden > Prague > Budapest > Bratislava > Vienna > Salzburg (day trip to Hallstatt) > Munich > Innsbruck > Lucerne (might go to Mt. Rigi or Titlis) > Interlaken (day trips to Lauterbrunnen, Jungfraujoch, Grindelwald) > Zurich (day trip to Rhine Falls). Should we get both Eurail Global Pass & Swiss Pass?

Hello the Eurail Pass is valid on all trains in switzerland with some exceptions like Jungfraujoch.

The Swiss travel pass is valid on the same trains, but also all other public transport (like bus, tram, ...).

If you don't need public transport in Switzerland, just buy an Eurail Pass for the full period.

Do you have any questions? Feel free to ask in the community! Known languages: Deutsch, Italiano, English.

A single pass is enough. Eurail should be good value, especially with the current 20% sale. You get 25-50% on Swiss mountain peaks (Jungfraujoch, Rigi, Titlis).

Please only buy Jungfraujoch tickets on the morning (fixed price, cannot sell out). In November you'll end up in the fog most days. Hundreds of CHF lost...
