About this guide
This website is an independent guide for visitors from the UK planning rail holidays in Switzerland. It is not run by a railway company or a tourist board.
How we work
Prices and conditions on these pages are taken from the published price lists of the Swiss Travel System, Swiss Federal Railways and the mountain railway operators. Where an operator's figures could not be read directly, we use a secondary source, say so, and give the figure as approximate. Each page states the month in which its facts were last checked. Fares change, usually in December, so confirm the price for your own dates before you book.
Amounts are given in Swiss francs. Figures in pounds are our own conversions and are only a guide.
How the site is funded
Some links lead to booking partners. If you buy through one of them we may receive a commission, at no extra cost to you. This does not affect our calculations, which often conclude that a cheaper product is the better choice.

Corrections and questions are welcome at info@swiss-travel-pass.co.uk. We cannot issue, change or refund tickets. For those, please contact the seller named on your booking.
