Buy a Swiss Pass and a Receive Free Roundtrip Rail Tickets to Paris
If exploring the snowy peaks, breathtaking views and alpine villages of Switzerland, paired with a free round trip ticket to Paris sounds too good to be true, guess again! This fall, Rail Europe Inc., the North American leader in European rail travel, in collaboration with Switzerland Tourism and the Swiss Travel System is making every international traveler’s dream come true with the Explore Switzerland and Paris is on Us promotion.
With this promotion, travelers purchasing any Swiss Pass from Sept.14 through Oct. 12 will receive a free round trip rail ticket to Paris*, good for use through Dec. 10, 2011. Travelers can enjoy Switzerland and for no extra charge, hop on a train out of town and enjoy the view as the Swiss Alps fade into the distance and the Eiffel Tower draws closer. A tranquil three and a half hour train ride on the TGV Lyria offers the perfect way to experience the best of both worlds as the train winds away from peaceful Swiss villages and into the glitz of Paris. Visitors taking advantage of this offer can also experience the annual Swiss Christmas markets; a picturesque time of year when the streets are decorated with lights and lined with stalls offering handmade holiday ornaments and foods.
Travelers on a Swiss Pass benefit from travel bonuses such as unlimited travel throughout Switzerland by train, bus and boat (including world-famous scenic routes like Glacier Express or Wilhelm Tell Express); free entry to more than 400 museums all over Switzerland and up to 50 percent discounts on select mountaintop excursions by mountain train or cable car.
Offer applies to first eligible 100 bookings purchased through Rail Europe Inc. and myswitzerland.com/rail. Prices for the Swiss Pass start at USD 422 (Prices are subject to change). Bookings can be made by visiting Rail Europe’s website at raileurope.com or myswitzerland.com/rail or by calling Rail Europe’s contact center.
