Fantastic tour and guide - Heading up into the mountains on the Bernina Express was incredible - a truly memorable experience which we'll never forget. And Lina, our guide, was so helpful. We saw her the following day when we were looking round Como and she was still willing to give us tips and advice even though we weren't on her tour! Thank you Lina.

Great View - The scenery along the way is very beautiful.
Although the tour guide is not very proficient in English, it does not affect the itinerary.

Long, long tour on a bus, a little on the train, which was wonderful - Very, very long ( 13 hour) trip, largely in a bus. The train portion ( 2 hour in Switz.) was wonderful. However, the balance, 10 or so hours between excursions and the bus was too long.
