Stunning scenery along this trip to St Moritz - This ride takes you through portions of the same path. The glacier express takes. I mean it’s a train ride through the Alps. The Alps just have to sit there and they’re awesome. The views of the mountains of the villages and everything else are stunning. Special kudos to our guide, Victor, who provided an excellent summary of historical geographical and human context to compliment the many spectacular views along the journey. Strong recommend.

Once in a lifetime - Arranged this trip as part of my 70th birthday celebrations with three family members. Fantastic day, we booked 1st class which I would recommend. The views and scenery were quite unbelievable. I also recommend combining it with the Interail train pass.

Glazier Express - Zürich to St Moritz - We travelled from Zurich HB mainline station with our guide Lorenzo who met us as under the big clock just at the right time. We travelled by train to St Moritz following the picturesque and scenic Glazier Express route. Lorenzo was a very knowledgeable guide pointing out all of the key landmarks annd buildings along the way and the best photo opportunities. Even when we experienced a little change in the planned return journey he promptly found an alternative route even allowing enough time to grab a drink and snack for the journey home.
