Need help! Which tickets are the best option for this route?

mellyndc

Hi,

We plan to explore the following areas in one day (in sequence)
Interlaken > Lake Thun > Sigriswil Panoramic Bridge > Wilderswil

When looking at the tickets on the app, I see an option to buy a Libero Individual Ticket for unlimited travel depending on the zones covered. Do we need to buy a Libero ticket to get to each destination or will some areas/zones already be covered when buying one Libero Ticket?

Note: We will have an Interlaken Guest Card as well. We just don’t know which areas it will be covered.

Any help or information will be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello mellyndc

See the information on the guest card here; it only grants free travel in Interlaken (in the town):

The Libero Day Pass is not valid on the Lake Thun & Lake Brienz boats, only for train & busses.

There is no need to bother with tickets in advance, simply go to the counter in Interlaken and tell the ticket agent from where to where you want to go.

Alternatively, you could purchase a Saver Day Pass far in advance. It starts from CHF 59 and is valid for a day for all public transport in Switzerland including the boats on Lake Thun.

Or, if you stay longer in the Interlaken area, the Berner Oberland Pass is another great offer, especially if you have the Swiss Half Fare Card in addition.

Having provided a lot of ticket advices, I must say that it is always a challenge to suggest best tickets if only fragments of a trip are known, instead of knowing the entire journey. It may lead to wrong advices and wrong (more expensive) ticket suggestions as I miss the complete picture.

Kind regards,
Roland
