Today you board one of the most famous trains in the world, the Glacier Express, for a panoramic trip through the Alps in the heart of Switzerland.

The Glacier Express travels a beautiful route between the sights of the Graubünden holiday region, central Switzerland, the sunny Valais region with its glacier landscape, and the beautiful regions of the South. Travel in comfort through the unspoiled natural beauty of a landscape rich in ancient, fragrant mountain forests, peaceful Alpine meadows, rushing mountain streams and mountain valleys, soaked in tradition and centuries old culture. You arrive in Zermatt at the foot of the majestic Matterhorn to find yourself in a world without cars as electric-cars and horse-drawn sleighs and carriages are the only transport allowed.
