I would advise anyone travelling on the Glacier Express to St Moritz, to continue their journey the following day on the Bernina Express (or a regular Bernina line train) onwards to Tirano, just across the Italian border. Every bit as spectacular as the Glacier Express.
That’s. Good thing that we will consider. But can we do it in one day go and back on the same day to st moritz?
Absolutely true! As well in winter as in summer!
How much does it cost two ways one first class ?
I took this trip on the Glacier Express in 1980, on a 15 day Swiss tour with my mom and sister. Many thanks for the wonderful reminders.
I am officially jealous! 😊 How stunning this was. Thank you for taking us along. Your videos are so well shot and I can appreciate the amount of work that has to go into making them. Please keep them coming! ❤
Breathtaking scenery! Sure to be one of the most beautiful train rides! Thank you for letting us join in on your journey!
I just realised that I've been holding my breath for half an hour! Thank you for literally breathtaking journey and very helpful information!
😂
I have never seen such a beautiful train journey in my life ... Serene and calm beauty with Alpine greeneries, light blue Rhine river and it's source ... I am speechless... it's so beautiful ... thanks a lot ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely gorgeous scenery. The feats of engineering it took to build the bridges, the tunnels & railways were awe inspiring. Thanks fir bringing us along on this incredible journey.
Unbelievable! The Glacier Express is amazing! What an unforgettable journey! With absolutely beautiful & breathtaking scenery, charming & delightful homes & buildings! As well as, stunning Mountain Vistas, beautiful Valleys & Rivers & incredible Glaciers. All of this, along with such epic & brilliantly designed bridges. As well as, the intriguing tunnel entrances, which makes the Train seem to just 'disappear' into the Mountain. What a delightful & totally unique experience! Thank you for sharing this wonderful journey on the Glacier Express!.
thanks for taking us in the journey - I visited switzerland in march 23 - it is the most beautiful country I have seen so much natural beauty and I'm from Scotland !
Most scenic and wonderful rail travel I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with us.
aww more than 10 years this is one of my travel goals to hop on that train through Switzerland
Absolutely breathtaking. I am always impressed with your videos.
Ohh! What a beautiful memory video! I did the tour on the Glacier Express from Chur to Zermatt in 2016 and it was a breathtaking experience. I love Switzerland, it’s a beautiful country with the most beautiful nature.
So glad we stirred the memories!
Wow what a breathtaking journey, love Switzerland. Thank you for sharing xx
It's just beautiful and awe inspiring. The whole place filled with beautiful jaw-dropping sceneries as if I was just looking into the postcards!
Well what can I say....awesome as always, what a beautiful country! As a train fan I love watching these trips you take, as well as your other videos too of course. Every week I keep meaning to say how much I enjoy the backgrohnd music on your videos, it complements them perfectly without distracting from your commentry. Cheers Cheryl 🙂
we took the Glacier Express in february (snow) after a skeeing week in Zermatt. Ended in Zurich and back by sleeper towards the Netherlands. Great luncheon with nice wines and VIEWS in 1st
What a great capture of a picture book journey! Your skills in filming and editing are great. Really enjoyed this train outing. Thanks so much for your efforts. I am sure people really appreciate your painstaking research and explanation about the how to, costs and options involved too.
Yay! Saturday with Memory Seekers is so welcome. Thank you!
Absolutely wow
This is a marvellous video capturing stunning Switzerland and the Glacier Express perfectly, I really enjoyed it as with all your videos. I really look forward to your uploads for you visit beautiful places, and not just tourist attractions which I admire. I also speak on behalf of all viewers in expressing my appreciation for your ever informative commentary on the attractions and history of places, and for offering extremely helpful time and money saving advice, I really appreciate the time you put into that. Thank you again for blessing us with your videos, all the best and happy travelling both of you ♥
Yes Simon is a total professional!!
Absence makes the Heart grow Fonder
Absolutely gobsmackedly beautiful place. I was completely memorized by the stunning scenery and gorgeous villages. I have to say that the only place that could be capable of surpassing this country would be the South Island of New Zealand which has its own unique beauty and character. Thank you again for your excellent work.
Beautiful train journey seeing all the alps
What a magnificent video- did this trip in 1986 - carriages have really changed now- then there was no food that I can remember !!
Ah this was a great video and brought back memories for me. In 2017 I took the Glacier Express in the opposite direction, from St Moritz to Andermatt. The scenery was absolutely stunning, as in your video. Thanks for a wonderful experience sharing your journey.
This has to be one of your most professionally done videos yet! Well done!
WHAT A LOVELY TRAIN JOURNEY!

Beautiful Train Journey. Thanks you.
Tysm for the awesome view and video sir ❤
Fantastic video guys, the very best one I've watched for the Glacier Express. We've covered pretty much all of the Zermatt-St Moritz route over the past few years but have never travelled on the Glacier Express. I was due to travel on it in 1985 as part of a Kuoni 3 centre holiday. Stupidly I left London with an infection and by the time I got to St Moritz I could hardly breathe. so had to curtail the holiday. It's on the bucket list though.
Mesmerising...❤👌🏞
A brilliant video. Your camerawork and editing have become extremely professional. Thank you!
Супер!!!🎉🎉🎉❤
Wunder Schoen Danke❤❤❤
Fantastické video👍👍👍Švýcarsko je úžasná,pohádková země.Jízda Glacier Expresem musí být nezapomenutelným zážitkem 😯😲😲🥰😍🤩❤❤❤Díky,pozdrav z Česka, cz.
This is outstanding, absolutely outstanding presentation guys! Breathtaking upload!
Did this trip about 30-odd years ago. Myself and some Kiwi travellers were waving cameras and excitedly swapping sides as the journey progressed while the locals looked on stoically but nonplussed. On returning home I took the country rattler that still ran at that time up through the mountains to my home. And marvelled at all those tourists running about in the carriage. Haven't they seen a waterfall before?! 😈🙄😉
simply superb. a lifetime experience!! thank you very much
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best Glacier Express video on KZhead 👍👍Thank you! 😊
Wow, thanks!
That was amazing, the engineering of the bridges and tunnels and your photography, how the heck did you get a drone up when heading for a tunnel. Thank you as always. =-)
This was beautiful . Well done! Thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mesmerising view and great videography 🥰🥰👌👌
We did it the opposite way St.Moritz to Zermatt. Beautiful train ride but a little too long. We enjoyed the Bernina Express more but both have superb scenery.
Great tour❤
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography job!!! Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. As the train travels through cities/towns/country sides. Excellent coach accommodations/meals/fantastic views!!! 2nd best way to tour Switzerland with out riding the train. Viewing this professional work produced by the video crew😉
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations on the quality of the editing, particularly when entering and exiting the tunnels.
Beautiful ❤️
Beautiful, I love it
Thank you! 😊
Magnifique vidéo, parfaitement commentée.

Haya. Again, WOW. Those bridges are a feet of sheer engineering incredibleness 😀Breathtaking views. Crikey the process of getting the tickets was a little frazzling, thanku so much for your thorough & understandable explanation of this 😀Thanku so much for sharing 😀
