international trains.
Remarks:
Nestled in the heart of Europe, Switzerland is a country renowned
for its unparalleled beauty and cultural diversity. It also has some of the
most magnificent train routes in the world, and the Swiss Travel Pass allows
you to embrace them all.
With a Swiss Travel Pass you can travel on trains, buses, cable
cars and boats to reach popular cities such as Bern, Basel, Geneva, Interlaken,
Lucerne , Innsbruck, Zurich and Lausanne as well as the country’s greatest natural
highlight, the Swiss Alps.
The pass gives you flexibility in your travels as you can hop on
and off trains, buses or ferries at your chosen stops. In general, you can show
up at the nearest train station ready to explore a new destination. However, please
note that some scenic trains require a seat reservation in advance.
The Swiss Travel Pass also gives free access to local public
transits, museums, as well as discounted city tours. A very popular option for
families, the Swiss Travel Pass and accompanying Swiss Family Card, allows
children between the ages of 6 and 16, accompanied by at least one parent or
guardian, to travel free of charge. The Swiss Travel Pass can be used in
printed format or on mobile, with a barcode.
IMPORTANT: With a Swiss Travel Pass Flex, the attachment you
receive in your booking confirmation email is only a receipt and NOT a valid
travel document. With this pass, you need to activate your travel days on
activateyourpass.com and then you will be given valid tickets for each activated
travel day. These can be shown either in printed form or on a mobile device
when tickets are being checked. Activated travel days can be changed any number
of times up until the selected travel day.
Once the pass has been booked and issued, the start date on the
pass cannot be changed.
