The route between Interlaken and Montreux is sometimes called the Golden Pass Line. Sometimes the whole route from Luzern via Brünnig to Interlaken and then on to Montreux is called the Golden Pass Line. The most beautiful part of the route is the part from Interlaken to Montreux. Sit on the left hand side of the train when leaving Spiez for the most beautiful views. The route from Interlaken to Luxern does not have equally beautiful views as you are travelling away from the Alps. You don’t need to travel with a specific train. Oh Thank you. To be honest I’m now a bit disappointed about my plan haha. But I believe I can still have great views on my way to Luzern.
Zentralbahn (subsidiary of SBB) operates that route yes. "Golden Pass" is a marketing name, nowadays mostly used for Interlaken - Montreux. What do you want to do exactly? Seat reservations are not a thing in Switzerland: simply hop on and sit wherever you want. There is enough seats. If you want to look at timetables use SBB app. It's very reliable and covers the whole country (or actually most of Europe). There are hourly trains between Interlaken and Lucerne, all stopping in Brienz (+ a few extra services on weekends and in summer). Thank you. I want to take the Golden Pass Line. So I’m just confusing which one is the correct one? Luzern-Interlaken Express?
Additionnaly you can reach Colmar reservation free buy going through germany or via Luxembourg and Metz/Nancy without the super expensive reservation fees (30 € for Amsterdam Paris, minimum 10€ for Paris Strasbourg) Thank you for your response! But going through Germany or Luxembourg takes such more time than my plan can allow.
Since you seem to live in the Netherlands, you can't buy a Eurail pass, but you need an Interrail pass. Whether a pass is cheaper for you than regular tickets is impossible to say without details. Regular tickets often have dynamic prices based on demand. So you first need a plan with timetables and travel dates and only then you can check what the regular prices will be. Thank you!!!
