Stunning Italy-Switzerland Bernina Express Train, Hotels & Flights

Think of the Alps and you will be forgiven for picturing snowy ski slopes, cable cars and people walking around in colourful snow jackets and salopettes, but the Alps and the country’s they are in have much more to offer than après bars and log cabins. So why not embark on the train journey of a lifetime through the mountains, crossing borders and discover the stunning towns and cities that call the Alps home.

We’re offering you a three-night Italy and Switzerland break including scenic Bernina express train and flights from just £299pp, saving you up to 35%*.

You could experience cosmopolitan cities, fresh mountain air and spectacular natural views for an unforgettable trip away. The three-night trip we have planned is packed with amazing experiences that turn this mini-break into something much more…

Day One

You'll fly to Milan to spend your first night in this magnificent Italian city. You will be given a room at Hotel Berlino, which includes Wi-Fi, an en-suite bathroom and flat screen TV. Exploring the centre of the city you will experience a sophisticated city at the forefront of art, fashion, food and design, but also boasting a grand gothic Cathedral and a rich sense of history.

Day Two

In the morning, you will board the fascinating Bernina Express. This railway will take you across the Alps offering spectacular views along the way. You will see glistening glaciers and negotiate nearly 200 bridges high up in the mountains. You will arrive at Chur, which is a charming mountain top town offering fresh air and a thriving small town. Here you and your lucky guest will stay at the Hotel Post Chur or ibis Hotel Chur, situated in the heart of the old town near museums, restaurants, cafes, shops, a cable car and biking opportunities.

Day Three and Four

Next you will travel to either Zurich or Geneva on the Rail Europe train. Best Western Hotel Spirgarten awaits you in Zurich, and Ramada Encore awaits you in Geneva. Both cities offer their own flavour of Swiss magic, so choose wisely as you will have day four to revel in all they have to offer. Zurich offers natural scenes of beauty against fantastic culture, fine dining experiences and shopping. Geneva also offers spectacular views of natural beauty, and is known as one of the most cosmopolitan, and prettiest cities in the world. Both cities should be experienced at least once in everyone’s lifetimes. After exploring to your heart’s content, you will then get a flight back home, filled with lots of amazing memories of this globetrotting trip…
