Switzerland Alps Amazing Train Ride

This experience was a bucket list item and did not disappoint! St. Moritz is beautiful and the mountains are amazingly beautiful. Our guide, Christina (sp?) was awesome and kept us all on schedule. Her knowledge of Italy and Austria is fascinating. Would go on this tour again without hesitation.

Nice tour

Our guide, Barbara, was very helpful and the tour was great. The only improvement would be to provide a map of St. Moritz. I got lost on my way back to the meeting point.

Great trip!

The trip was really easy to book in the first instance. All the tickets and details of the trip were clear and easy to understand. The trip itself was spectacular! The views on the way to St. Moritz were stunning and Mariachristina was brilliant in sharing key information on the way. Salvatore was an excellent driver, especially on the windy climb to St. Moritz. The Bernina train was amazing. Stunning views of the mountains and glaciers as we made our way to Tirano. Overall a great trip, would definitely recommend.

Worth it!

Our guide, Mariacristina, was very knowledgeable and kind! The tour is very beautiful and the views are gorgeous. The train can be quite hectic and busy with many tourists attempting to take photos, but it was still enjoyable. Make sure to pack plenty of water and wear comfortable clothing as the tour is a full day. We went in june so it was cold in the morning but incredibly hot in the afternoon, so make sure to check the weather in both italy and switzerland.

Beautiful scenery….with a long bus ride

There is a lot of good things about the tour…..Sal the driver and Francesca the guide were outstanding. I would wish that it be made more clear that of the 12=hours of the tour about three hours were on the train…..the rest was free time in St Moritz , about two hours and the rest was a long bus ride to/ from the train. The scenery was great…..I just wanted more train for the cost…..please be more specific in the ads.
