Bernina Express Trip - Awesome!
Reviewed by: Sarjeet, 2020/02/29It's a memorable journey, what we remember now is the ride of Bernina!!!
No words can describe the experience, you have to be there to feel and just take it for rest of your life. We were fortunate to have sunny day on 22nd Feb starting from Milan to Tirano and from Tirano to St. Moritz - The Bernina Express. Snow clad mountains on both the sides and you are enjoying the ride inside Bernina express. from frozen lakes to the lakes with blue water - awesome landscape.
overall experience can be excellent, please improve the time at St. Moritz. Customer is paying so much for the day outing so he should get the maximum out of it. Quality time of 30mins at St. Moritz out of 13hrs is not justifiable. Please see if you can look into the request.
The guide made the long/tiring journey to a enjoyable. He was excellent with his humour, knowledge and experience.

Good day overall
Reviewed by: Amy, 2019/03/31We enjoyed the day and the scenery was breathtaking! Tour guide was very professional.
At first stop for coffee and a pastry, we did not have enough time as the line was long and there wasn’t enough help to accommodate everyone. We needed 15 more minutes.
Appreciated the time we had in St Moritz. Tour guide discouraged group from seeing/eating at Badratts Palace hotel. So glad we ventured in anyway. The lunch and view were amazing!!! So well try it!
Bernina Express was wonderful and soo beautiful!
Trip back to Milan was fine. Needed more time at the break stop/restroom stop.
Overall, a great experiment to nc!

A must do tour if you are in Italy - Milano for few days !
Reviewed by: AlexA, 2019/02/02I booked few days in a hotel for Milano. I did not search what to do in Milan for few days. After I saw that Milano is not a city to be sightseeing for more than 4 days I started to search other things to do in the north of italy. This is a tour you must do if you are in this area. Someone said you are going for a tour on the top of the world.It is guite true. The view is breathtaking. The only regret is that the tour is only few hours.

LOVE! An absolute must-do!
Reviewed by: Kdizzle, 2019/01/04Easily the highlight of my trip. Anyone going to Milan should do this tour. The views are stunning, purely unbelievable. Make sure to upgrade on the Bernina Express to first class and pack your own wine, bread, and cookies. You'll never get a better view!

An Amazing Trip on Bernina Express
Reviewed by: C O Chan, 2018/04/28We went on the Bernina Express on 4 April and it was certainly an amazing experience. Though we started very early when they pick us up at 6.00am, the guide was very knowledgeable and very caring. Though she had a frozen shoulder she carried out her duties excellently.
The view up to St Moritz was awesome, Though we were on the coach for two and half hours from Milan to Tirano and then lunch at Tirano before boarding the train up to St Moritz it was well worth it. The scenery was splendid all covered with snow. I believe in summer it would even be more beautiful.

Memorable journey through the Swiss Alps
Reviewed by: Han from Singapore , 2017/12/21Sat down 80% of the time in the bus to St Moritz as well as the train ride from St Moritz to Torino. Tour guide was pretty good. Wifi on bus was working but not all the time. For those with motion sickness, the bus ride up the alps may not be comfortable. The lunch is own expense, has at least 50 CHF per pax as St Moritz is pretty expensive

Train trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed by: TravelingArtist, 2015/10/09I had heard of the Bernina Express on a PBS special about famous scenic train rides and started my research on the tour. During the research, I ran across tours offering the trip and decided to book. I am so glad I did! I had hoped to capture a few shots to paint along the way and ended up with so many it will be hard to choose from them all. After a quick trip by bus ( which was also very scenic through the famous Lake Como), the bus took us to Torino where we stopped for lunch and did a bit of local shopping. We then boarded the Bernina Express and started our journey through the Swiss Alps. The tour was led by Andrea who did a fantastic job preparing us before we approached key sights so we could prepare our cameras. The challenge was what to pick from...my camera couldn't take the pictures fast enough to capture all the eye candy! After we arrived in St Moritz and enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa at a local restaurant, we headed back by bus and experienced even more exciting views. One of the thrilling pics I got on the way back was when we drove down thousands of feet in just a few minutes. The road twisted and turned back and forth. Then onward to even more great pics! This was by far the highlight of our trip to Milan! I wouldn't hesitate to do this again as I imagine each time you go...in any season, the scenery would change based on the weather conditions.

Bernina Express
Reviewed by: Ron Gipson, 2015/10/09This was our first time to Italy and this excursion was one of the most exciting evens. The views are amazing and our tour guide Andre made the event much more interesting with his discussion about the areas as we passed through. Since we were not experienced with travel methods in Italy it made this outing stress free since all of the activities were organized for us. The view of the countryside was breathtakingly beautiful and early October seems to be a good time to do it as the weather was perfect. I was amazed that we were able to do the entire trip through the Alps with the windows down! Now that's fresh air. In addition to the fantastic train ride the bus portion of the activities was also very comfortable and interesting. The combination of both the bus and train on this route made for a great day.

Wonderful trip
Reviewed by: Anonymous, 2015/01/26It was very nice. The weather was good and I enjoyed the spectacular scenery of the Alps. The tour guide was good as well, although it was quite a tight schedule for a one day bus tour.
All the shops were closed as it was Sunday, so you wouldn't be satisfied if you want to do shopping there.
In addition, I booked my lunch through the tour since I hadn't known where to go, but I think it could have been better if I'd found a good place by myself without a booking. I know it would be different depending on the date and how much busy the place is with tourists, the period, when I joined the tour in the beginning of April, there were not many people eating in any of the restaurants there.

A series of superb views
Reviewed by: Anonymous, 2015/01/26I joined this tour because I wanted to ride the World Heritage Bernina Express. It was a great day blessed with a fine weather. Everyone opened their window, taking pictures from left to right. I would recommend wearing warm clothes though. St. Moritz is also a beautiful place. We had a time to get some cake at the store Audrey Hepburn loved. I had a wonderful time there.
