Milan to Bernina Express: Epic Swiss Alps Panoramic Train Tour

Bucket list trip through the snow covered mountains! Just fabulous. It is a very long day but worth every penny/minute!!

Everyone should experience this train ride at least once in their lifetime. The scenery is stunning with the snow caps.

Picked up the bus in Milan and we was off - beautiful scenery all the way To st moritz - then some free time to explore. Back to the station to experience a magical winter wonderland through the alps - it was the best day.

We got picked-up from our hotel at 6:00 AM. We appreciate that. We were dropped off on some corner ten/fifteen minutes later. There, we waited for the tour bus, which did not leave until 7:15 AM. From there, we went to pick-up more people at Milano Céntrale. Finally, we left Milano for Saint Moritz at 8:00 AM. Although it was nice to be picked-up from our hotel, it would have been more convenient to simply show-up at Milano Céntrale at 7:30 AM or 7:45 AM. A waste of time of about two hours. Frustrating. Our tour guide, Ana, was engaged, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and did a very nice job in both languages: English and Spanish. The weather did not cooperate; however, we intermittently got to enjoy the beautiful scenery. After everyone boarded the train and the ride began, some people started talking with friends and family overseas through FaceTime (loud telephone speakers), started to get up right and left to take pictures, opened the train windows to get good pictures, drizzle and cold air started to get in through the open windows, people rushed to get selfies and good photos. It was a mess to put it lightly. The tour guide is not responsible for people’s behaviors but it would have been appropriate (and necessary) for everyone’s enjoyment to set some boundaries for civility and courtesy. On top of the fact that the weather did not cooperate (no one’s fault), people’s lack of respect for the space we all share was appalling. It was a very disappointing experience. It was frustrating and annoying. As we have seen in other tours, it is the tour guide’s responsibility to foster and maintain an atmosphere of fun and adventure, and also mutual respect and consideration.

First pag pasok palang namin the ambience is soo good. then the rooms the foods also great and delicious.the rooms is so clean, also the staff are accommodating.

It was an amazing trip. My kiddo loved the Alps even more than Venice. We also had a very nice and professional guide who supported our group. I have only one recommendation: please add a restroom stop on the way back. The bus got stuck in traffic, and instead of 2 hours on the road, we spent 3.5 hours without any amenities.

It’s a really long day but so worth it! Easy hotel pick up on time. Dropped at the pick up point for the main coach. One other pick up then off to st moritz. Our guide Simone and driver davide were both great. Lots of info on the way, whilst in st moritz and during the train ride. How david’s got the bus around the hairpin bends I’ll never know. A must do experience! Even had a little surprise stop on the way back which was lovely.

Interesting, the guide was pmeasant and entertainig and the driver was very careful and drove us safely home

Monica was an excellent guide ! Javier our driver navigated the mountain roads with ease making us all feel comfortable
