The Bernina Express is a scenic train journey that takes you through the stunning landscapes of the Swiss Alps, connecting Chur/St. Moritz and Tirano in Italy. As you ride along, you'll pass by glaciers, lakes, and picturesque towns, making it one of the most spectacular ways to cross the Alps. With its iconic Landwasser Viaduct and breathtaking views, this train adventure offers a unique and unforgettable experience for travelers looking to soak in the beauty of Switzerland and end up in italy to get a gelato for the way back!

Important note: You don't necessarily have to book the expensive Bernina Express itself. You can also just buy a train ticket from Chur to Tirano and go with the regional train where it's cheaper, there's less people AND you get to put the windows down!

Note that most definitely you're going both ways on the same day, which makes it a very long train journey. So taking the regional train will allow you to leave the train if you want to get out for a sightseeing, say you want to get out at Bernina Pass or Diavolezza.
