Well conducted Tour and Great Experience

4.00This tour from Milan Central is well organized. The tour is less than 12 h, started at . 7.05 am and returned at 6.25 PM. The location of the tour assembly is next to Milan Central station in front of Excession Hotel Gallia bus stop. Seats are chosen first come first serve even if you are pre-booked. Host Checks everyone and starts the tour sharp 7.05. 1.5h into drive a short coffee break at a nice location. On the way you see glimps of Lake Como. A short 15 min stop in this area would have been nice to take some picks. The bus ride continues into beautiful mountains that has many hairpin curves. At 10:30 the tour reaches at St. Moriz. Here you have 2h for lunch and Shopping. St. Moriz is a beautiful town, but things appears expensive. If you are planing to get souvenir of Bernina exp maybe wait for Tirano. At 12.35, we have Berning red train, full reserved compartment for our tourist grom From st Moriz to Tirano. This train ride is an amazing must see experience. Beautiful Alps mountains with snow in February. After 2.5 h you reach Tirano and a short stop of 20 min there for a coffee. I wish we had a longer stop here to do some shoping. Around 3.30 bus back to Milan. 0n the way, bus goes through beautiful Valley that grow golden apple, grapes and a few lakes, About 3h you get back Milan Central. Overall this is a well conducted tour with beautiful sight seeing. Yes, ride is long, but worth. Also like to mention good guide and coach driver.
A great trip, well organised and excellent rep. Would recommend as worth every penny

4.00We enjoyed our trip to St Moritz. It’s a 12 hour day to be in St Moritz for about 2 hours and then the train takes another 2 and a half hours. The rest of the time you’re on a nice coach bus. Sabrina, our guide, was very good and kept the group together and Claudio, was an excellent driver.
12 hours sight seeing trip

4.00Very beautiful! I had never been to Switzerland so that was fun. Great chocolate! I would say I didn’t quite realize how long we would be on buses - 2 hours to train and back but the guide stopped for food and restrooms which was good.
Long day but very...
