I'm looking for info if anyone has completed a route that included France, Switzerland and Italy as looking to get a Toll pass to save stopping as one of the cars will only have one person and it'll be a pain to keep getting out to pay as RHD! I've seen individual passs for each country but wondering if anyone has found one that covers all the countries we'll be travelling through!

Thanks Ad

Drove to monte casino last year and spent about £150 on tolls. Didn't use a pass as I had a passenger smile

Was MUCH cheaper to st gotthard tunnel and pay the Swiss mway charge than use the Mt blanc tunnel.

Italian mway's have loads of speed cameras frown

There isn't one toll pass for different countries because basically they're different countries.
As above Mont Blanco is very pricey,unless you buy a return ticket which is 66% ,I think, cheaper than buying it twice,lasts 7 days.
Italian tolls are high too.
In 2016 I drove Lucca ovest to Aosta,for the aforementioned tunnel,cost over 50E.

tolltickets.com will let you "rent" tags for all the countries so no need to get out of the car. If traveling alone then I recommend taking one.
After a while is an absolute pita to get out of the car all the time.

I'd also consider revising the route if there's a lot of motorway involved. Do some autobahn into Switzerland and cross to Italy through the Alps.

Good point, did Mulhouse to st die over the Vosges and that was a nice change from the French mway's.
