Grand Train Tour of Switzerland «Top Attractions» (for international guests)

With the world's slowest express train, the Glacier Express, across the Alps and with the Luzern-Interlaken Express and the GoldenPass Express on the royal route through the Bernese Oberland to Lake Geneva.

This train journey combines two panoramic routes: The GoldenPass Line and the Glacier Express. Experience unique moments on the GoldenPass Line and magnificent views of a beautiful Swiss landscape. Whether in a panoramic train or in a Belle Epoque carriage of the GoldenPass Line, your emotions will be running high.

With the Glacier Express - the slowest express train in the world - you will travel through breathtaking landscapes, past rugged cliffs and culture that is several hundred years old. This is what makes the Glacier Express so unique.

Admire the unique Matterhorn in car-free Zermatt, explore Interlaken, the gateway to the three majestic mountains Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau and nestled between Lakes Thun and Brienz. Lucerne is the perfect city with an impressive combination of water, mountains and the city. With an almost Mediterranean climate, the small town of Montreux is a beautiful location on Lake Geneva. You will not believe it but the lake promenade is lined with pines, cypresses and palm trees.
