Day 2: Excursion Bernina Express Tirano/St. Moritz<br />

The Bernina Express is the only train who rides without cover over the Alps – on adventurous<br />

and historical trails. No wonder the UNESCO rated this legendary railway as a world heritage.<br />

landscape of Switzerland has harmonized with the surrounding nature and technology for more<br />

than 100 years.<br />

Day 3: Glacier Express from Chur to Brig<br />

A fascinating rail journey with the slowest express train in the world starts in Heidiland and ends<br />

at the foot of the Matterhorn. It is a spectacular alternative to a flight over the Alps. During the<br />

4 ½ hours from from Chur to Brig, you cross several bridges and go through many tunnels while<br />

traversing the Alps. Through the impressive Rhine gorge, over the Oberalp pass (2,033m/6,670ft)<br />

and along the deep valley of the Rhône, the Glacier Express travels through an incredibly fascinating<br />

and impressing part of the Alps. Short walk from Brig railway station to your hotel and<br />

overnight in Brig.<br />

Day 4: Excursion to Zermatt<br />

Board the train and enjoy an entertaining train ride through the Vispa valley to the world-famous<br />

holiday destination of Zermatt, which lies at the foot of the Matterhorn. Leisure time. We highly<br />

Return trip by train to Brig and overnight in Brig.<br />
