There is option to switch it from terminal:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source "['Alt_R']"

You can do that via Tweaks -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Additional Layout Options -> Switching to another layout.

Note 1: The gnome-tweaks package needs to be installed.

Note 2: Right Alt for that purpose is not advisable if any of the layouts you use includes 3rd and 4th level symbols.
