Nationwide public transport access

The Saver Day Pass gives you full-day access to Switzerland’s GA (Generalabonnement) travel area. This includes all SBB trains, most private railway lines, local buses and trams, PostBuses, and boats on major lakes such as Lake Geneva, Lake Lucerne and Lake Zurich.

Scenic train routes

Travel on world-famous panoramic lines like the GoldenPass and Luzern–Interlaken Express. While seat reservations and supplements may apply for services like the Glacier Express or Bernina Express, the Saver Day Pass covers the base fare.

Urban transport

You can use your pass on trams, buses and metro lines in major cities including Zurich, Geneva, Basel and Bern all included for the day of validity.

Family benefits

With a free Swiss Family Card, children under 16 travel at no cost when accompanied by a parent using a Saver Day Pass.

This pass is the perfect choice for:

• One-day explorers: Perfect if you're planning a high-value day of travel whether it’s across the country or a full round-trip alpine adventure.

• Budget-conscious travellers: If you want maximum savings for a single day of travel, this pass is hard to beat, especially when booked early.

• Families: Enjoy cost savings with free travel for children under 16, making it great for parents planning day-long excursions.

• City-to-city hoppers: Take full advantage of intercity trains and local transit to explore multiple destinations in one day.

Saver Day Pass vs. Swiss Half Fare Card

These two passes serve different travel styles:

• Swiss Saver Day Pass: One full day of unlimited travel across the GA network. Best for intensive day trips.

• Swiss Half Fare Card: Valid for a month with 50% off individual tickets. Better suited for long stays or light, occasional travel.

Saver Day Pass vs. Swiss Travel Pass

Both offer unlimited travel, but with different durations and use cases:

• Swiss Saver Day Pass: One-day pass, great for flexibility and savings on short trips.

• Swiss Travel Pass: Offers multiple consecutive days (3 to 15) of unlimited travel, museum access and more so it's better for multi-day, cross-country itineraries.

Purchasing your Swiss Saver Day Pass

Buying the pass:

• Purchase online via Rail Europe

• Choose your travel date and class (1st or 2nd)

• Book early to get the best price as fares rise closer to departure

A note on cancellations and seat reservations

• Seat Reservations:Not required for regular trains, boats or public transit. But they are required and charged separately for popular panoramic trains like the Glacier Express, Bernina Express, or GoldenPass Express.
