| saffron183423:00 UTC30 May 2011 | Hello everyone :)
I have been looking through my LP book, www.swisspasses.com, and other websites that seem to sell train passes for Switzerland. I am planning to arrive to Zurich airport on friday, and feel baffled if I should buy this 500 USD unlimited pass or just pay individual fares. I will be travelling around Switzerland for about 12 days. So far I have planned airport to Zurich, Zurich to St. Gallen, St. Gallen to Vaduz, Vaduz to Chur- and here is where I would like to take the Bernina train (but could not find a real price on the ticket anywhere), and eventually make it to Bellinzona (the castles), Bern, Aletsch glacier, and possibly Geneva before heading back for my departing flight on June 14. Maybe that's too much for that number of days, I'm not sure, but I am currently stuck on the train question. One website suggested I enter in a multi-city plan, but provided no link anywhere on the website to this fare engine to compute the price.
Any information or website links would be appreciated. It will only be my second time to Europe, so train travel is a bit new to me. Thanks so much for any help in advance!
