The GoldenPass Express, and Swiss Mountain Peaks from Zurich

9-day Switzerland rail trip via the GoldenPass Express to the Jungfrau

Railbookers operates this 9-day, 8-night independent rail package that begins in Zurich, where the evidence pack describes exploring the Old Town and visiting a chocolate factory. From Zurich, the trip continues by train to Montreux, with a visit to Chillon Castle, then aboard the GoldenPass Express directly to Interlaken. From Interlaken, the itinerary includes a trip to the Top of Europe at Jungfraujoch, and the description mentions a final scenic train journey, likely on to Lucerne, before the description is cut short. Because it is sold as an independent rail package rather than an escorted tour, travelers make their own way between stops. No hotels are named in the evidence available to us. At $2,699 USD per person, this suits travelers who want named scenic Swiss train journeys, a castle visit, and a mountain excursion in one independent trip.

  • The evidence pack's description is cut off after mentioning a final scenic train journey, likely on to Lucerne; it does not confirm the order or number of nights at each stop.
