Overview

This full-day bus and train tour starts with a pickup in Milan, where you meet the tour leader before leaving the city. You'll travel by coach through the Lake Como region without stopping, then pause in Piantedo for a 30-minute coffee break (not included). Next, you reach St. Moritz, Switzerland, where you have two hours to explore the town at your own pace. You can stroll along the main street, shop, or try sweets from local pastry shops. After St. Moritz, you board the Bernina Express panoramic train for about two hours. The train travels on a UNESCO World Heritage route, climbing to 2,253 meters at the Bernina Pass. Large windows provide views of snow-covered mountains, glaciers, and Alpine valleys. Along the way, you pass notable sites such as Lake Bianco and the Brusio Spiral Viaduct. The route offers photo opportunities at places like the Morteratsch Glacier and views of Piz Bernina, the highest peak on the journey at 4,049 meters. The train ends in Tirano, Italy, a small town near the Swiss border known for its Basilica and relaxed atmosphere. From Tirano, you return by bus to Milan, traveling through the Valtellina valley. The tour lasts about 13 hours and includes round-trip bus transport from Milan, a guaranteed second-class panoramic carriage on the Bernina Express (if selected), travel insurance, and an English-speaking assistant onboard. Meals, tips, and seat upgrades are not included.
