5.00All very good - collection from Como, joined up with the main bus and met Monica who was excellent all day. Few hours in St Moritz good but main attraction the Bernise express train. Very good day out

5.00Wonderful ride on the Bernina Express with beautiful views. Made more magical by the fact it snowed in June! Monica the guide was lovely. The coach trip from Como took around 3 hours, which wasn’t a problem except for the lack of toilet stops. This made it extremely stressful for those of us who are older. Please take this into consideration in future. It somewhat spoiled a lovely day.
Breathtaking Scenery

5.00This trip is well worth doing. Early start from Como where we got a minibus transfer with 3 other wonderful people to the coach pick up point. The coach was very comfortable and our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. The coach took us to St Moritz. The scenery en route St Moritz was just phenomenal and photos do not do it justice. Unfortunately, we found St Moritz a bit of a disappointment. It’s nowhere near as beautiful as Garda and Como and actually felt quite sterile. All of the shops (which are all designer) were closed as the season has not started. That said, I’ve no doubt it would be beautiful in winter. An hour is more than long enough in St Moritz. We then boarded the Bernina Express to Terano. More stunning scenery and photo opportunities. Although you can buy food and drink on the train we took our own. Best to sit on the right hand side of the train for scenery although it is gorgeous both sides. The train also has WiFi. We were advised to put our phones on airplane mode as Switzerland not part of roaming and very expensive. Once in Terano, we spent an hour before getting the coach back to Como. NB The train takes you one way and coach back) The trip is all about the scenery. It’s a long day but very worthwhile doing. The icing on the cake was meeting fabulous people.
Outstanding trip

5.00It was a beautiful trip. Be prepared for a long day, but the guide was wonderful and you never had to worry about getting from the bus to St. Moritz to the train and back to the bus again. Very professional and knowledgeable.
Bernini Express Beautiful Alps. Tour guide could have been nicer!

4.00The Alps are beautiful, St. Moritz was basically closed except for a few stores. Our tour guide acted like a bully at times, telling us to stop talking or not to sit in a certain spot. He acted like we were children! I’m no child at 68, a lighter mood from him would have made the trip amazing.

5.00The tour guide was really great. Energetic, knkowledgable, and provided a wonderful experience. We enjoyed beautiful scenery while also learning a lot about the area around the Italian/Swiss border.

Clear Weather is Critical

3.00Unfortunately, inclement weather (rain and clouds) made it very difficult to see the bigger mountains (why, I'm guessing, most sign up for this excursion.) I understand the tour operator can't control the weather, but everyone should be aware of this before they book. The bigger disappointed was how the tour company handled the bus transportation. Unprecedented flooding in Lake Como made the travel bus 45 minutes late. It would have been understandable if they notified us via the same text messaging platform they used that morning reminding us to be on time. As a result, we waited in the rain wondering if the trip was cancelled. The van driver that finally picked us up offered no explanation or apology. The delay also shortened our stop in St. Moritz to less than an hour (versus 2.) Again, I realize the travel company can't control the weather, but I feel like things could have been handled better.
A must do!!
