For anyone taking a holiday to Switzerland, a journey on one of the Swiss iconic trains is an absolute must. Here we include a journey on the breathtaking Bernina Express railway from Filisur, high into the alps, past lakes and glaciers to travel across the border to Tirano, Italy. Also included is a 'Davos/Klosters Card' providing discounts on local transport, cable cars and mountain railways – always a bonus and perfect for the tour driver's day off!
Take the short Channel crossing and on for dinner and an overnight stay in the Metz area before continuing into Switzerland to the popular high Alpine resort of Davos or Klosters for a five night stay.
Start your stay with a day at leisure, taking advantage of the included 'Davos/Klosters Card'. Why not take trip on the Schatzalp Mountain Railway for lunch in the panoramic restaurant followed by a visit to the Alpine Garden?
We travel to historic Chur. The oldest city in Switzerland. Explore this charming town at your own pace to discover the cobbled streets, secret courtyards and imposing cathedral.
Take the local train or drive from Davos or Klosters to board the Bernina Express Railway and travel to Italy. See lakes, gorges and glaciers, experiencing a series of loops and tunnels that make this one of Europe’s greatest train journeys. In Tirano rejoin the coach to return via the Bernina Pass. Please note: Due to availability, this journey may be booked in reverse, with an afternoon train from Tirano to Filisur and onwards by local train to Davos or Klosters, arriving in time for dinner at the hotel.
