Great Rail Journeys runs this escorted New Year tour centred on Interlaken, Switzerland, in the heart of the Bernese Oberland. The package combines a ride on the Jungfrau Express, a mountain railway that climbs into the Jungfrau region, with a carriage ride departing from Grindelwald and a visit to Mürren, a car-free Alpine village accessible only by cable car or on foot. Guests celebrate New Year's Eve and Day in the Alpine setting. The exact itinerary day by day, duration, hotel names, and meal inclusions are not published in the operator's standard information, so confirm all details with Great Rail Journeys before booking.
