The Ultimate Swiss Panorama

13-day Swiss rail circle through Alps, Bernina, Glacier Express, and lakeside towns

Railbookers' 13-day independent rail package The Ultimate Swiss Panorama circles through seven Swiss destinations, beginning in Zurich and visiting St Moritz, Zermatt, Montreux, Interlaken, Lucerne, and Lugano. You travel on three celebrated scenic trains: the Bernina Express, the Glacier Express, and the GoldenPass Express. Itineraries also feature ascents to Jungfrau, Mount Pilatus, and a crossing of the Gotthard Pass. The package suits independent explorers who prefer to navigate between cities on their own, as well as experienced rail travellers seeking Switzerland's celebrated Alpine routes. Accommodation and all named train journeys are included in the price. This trip works well for photographers and those drawn to mountain scenery, lakes, and charming Swiss towns visited over a leisurely two-week span.
