The Ultimate Swiss Panorama and Lake Como from Milan

14-day Swiss rail circuit from Milan via the Bernina and Glacier Express

Railbookers operates this 14-day, 13-night independent rail package that starts in Milan and travels through Switzerland and Italy, visiting St Moritz, Zermatt, Montreux, Interlaken, Lucerne, Lugano, and Lake Como. The operator's description centers the trip on named scenic trains, the Bernina Express, the Glacier Express, and the GoldenPass Express, along with a visit to Mount Pilatus. As an independent rail package rather than a guided tour, travelers move between these eight destinations on their own schedule. This suits independent explorers who want to string together several of Switzerland's well known scenic rail routes in one long trip, with photography opportunities built around the alpine and lakeside stops.

What to know before you look closer

  • The operator does not publish a day-by-day itinerary for this package. The order the destinations are visited in, the trains connecting them, and how many nights are spent in each of Milan, St Moritz, Zermatt, Montreux, Interlaken, Lucerne, Lugano, and Lake Como are not detailed; confirm these details before booking.
  • No specific hotels, meals, or train class levels are named in the description, so comfort level and inclusions cannot be judged from what is published here.
