Milan to Zurich via the Glacier and Bernina Express Trains

Independent Milan-to-Zurich rail journey on the Bernina and Glacier Express

Railbookers operates this independent rail package running 9 days and 8 nights from Milan to Zurich. The trip opens in Milan with a visit to see the Last Supper, then heads into Switzerland on the Bernina Express, described by the operator as one of the world's most scenic train journeys. After a night in St Moritz, in the heart of the Engadin valley, travelers continue on the famous Glacier Express to the mountain village of Zermatt for two nights before the trip continues on to Zurich. Because it is independent rather than escorted, travelers move between these stops on their own schedule rather than as part of a guided group. It suits travelers who want a scenic rail route through the Swiss Alps built around two well-known named trains.
