Travel on the famous Glacier Express - one of Switzerland's most iconic train rides across the Alps from St. Moritz to Zermatt. The breathtaking journey takes around 7½ hours, crosses 291 bridges, passes through 91 tunnels and climbs to over 2,000 metres high.
Fly to Zurich and take a scenic rail transfer to St.Moritz; from here you will be driven 15 minutes to the Waldhaus Sils where you will stay for two nights in the picturesque Engadin Valley.
