Our driver Alberto was the best driver we’ve ever had in a tour. Ot was a very safe and comfortable ride. Our tour guide Giulia @inviaggioverso was awesome. All the information she provided was very helpful and she was super fun and friendly.

Great experience. Incredible views and wonderful guide. Well worth the full day. From palm trees to snow capped mountains all in the same trip.

OMG!! If you have the chance please do this. This tour has some sneaky tips that make the experience all the better and a whole lot easier. Our guide Sylvia was a great hostess and her sense of humour made the trip even better. She makes sure everyone is comfortable and includes some bathroom stops which believe me are most welcome and necessary as it is a full day. The scenery and trip are everything you expect and more

Had a very personalised tour with Paola. The highlight of the tour is definitely the Bernina express where the train literally arrives in the alps. Would reccomend this :) The town of Varenna is also charming.

Our guide Paola, was phenomenal. I'm visiting from Ocala, Florida in the U.S. and was blessed to have such a knowledgeable and very well educated guide like Paola. This tour will remain etched in my memory and heart ❤️ forever. What an amazing experience.

Super thankful that we took the Bernina Express Train Tour with Luca from Italy. Their excellent organization, extremely easy communication with Luca through WhatsApp and especially the incredibly professional and friendly guide Giulia plus the sunny warm weather all contributed to a most spectacular train tour. We were met by Flavia at Bar Centrale inside the Milano Centrale train station at 8 am sharp. Luca sent us a picture of Bar Centrale through WhatsApp, which was very helpful to locate the meeting point. Flavia helped us board the 8:20 am local train to Varenna and met our tour guide of the day Giulia at Lecco enroute. Giulia was super friendly and provided us with fantastic details of the surroundings and some history of the area. We were met by our driver at Varenna train station, had a short walk along the lakefront of Lake Como to our breakfast place near the Church of St. Giorgio. We then visited the cellar of the Ciapponi family in Morbegno and tasted different kinds of cheese there. Lunch was at the station square near the Tirano Train Station where the Bernina Express departed at 1:40 pm. The Bernina Express was amazingly spectacular. Sceneries kept changing as we elevated. After about 15 minutes from the start of the journey, we reached the famous Brusio spiral viaduct. Giulia pointed out numerous scenic points along the train ride for 1 hour 50 minutes before reaching the Bernina Diavolezza Station where our driver was waiting to take us to St. Moritz in Switzerland by car, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful Swiss Alps through the extremely winding Bernina Pass. One unfortunate event was that a family in our group missed the Bernina Express, so Giulia had to make numerous phone calls and exchange messages to help them get on a later train to meet us at St. Moritz. Again, Giulia displayed awesome capability, efficiency and professionalism with incredible competency to the travel profession. We took the 7:15 pm train from Colico and arrived at Milano Centrale at 8:40 pm. That marked the perfect end of an awesome train tour that we would highly recommend to other visitors.

Wonderful day! The Alps were amazing. I didn’t realize when I booked this trip that we crossed into Switzerland. It was a great surprise. Lake Como is beautiful. The train is comfortable and provides great views. Thanks Luca!

The person who suppose to meet you at the train station show up late, and not on schedule, meeting location was changed the day before. Stopped at wine shop and restaurant which is not on the list of the location, rushing the entire trip, do not have enough time to spend after we get off the train in the train station to take pictures, and waste half hour in the wine store, and half hour in the bakery. It would be better if you just give more time in other locations to slow down and take pictures and look around and a real location store to buy some local products. Totally not organized. On the train, there are other empty seat which he organized us sit in a one full of people. This tour cost more and suppose to have more stop and spot to see. I don’t consider my money is well spent. Do not recommend. The wine store, if you want to taste you have to buy a cup and is around 7-9 euro, buying an entire bottle is cheaper. Totally rip off. No free tasting, how could you buy something before you try, and if you try you have to pay for trying it. It would be better to join another tour cost less and less stop. Just go to the major spot. Most of the spot is a waste.

Luka is a very nice tour guide and personable. He made a point of getting to know everyone’s name and something about them.
