Experience a legendary train ride with the "slowest express train in the world" on its magnificent journey across the soaring Alps of Switzerland. From the Matterhorn to the Bernina mountain range, it is the closest thing to a flight across the Alps. The 270-km journey from Zermatt via Brig and Andermatt, Chur to Pontresina or vice versa takes you right across the Alps, negotiating 291 bridges and tunnels along the way. Travelling in state-of-the-art observation carriages along the mighty valley basins cut by the Rhine and Rhône rivers, the Glacier Express passes through one of the largest Alpine regions.

Given that Glacier Express rides are in very high demand, we recommend early reservation of seats, especially for groups.
