Lovely places to see/be in, but too much time pressure and stress during travel. Took days to recover. Better for the young/fit. Everyone was very disappointed as the actual Glacier express we were on, being I believe a special extra train due to demand, offered no buffet or refreshments at all, all the way. Much cynical laughter at the lavish videos.

Great train and journey. Disappointed and spoilt the experience as no food and drinks available and buffet carriage closed

Be careful booking this trip, our journey on the Glacier Express, which was six hours in total, had no services at all ! No Buffet / Dining car, no at seat trolley service and no availability to purchase any souvenirs of our journey, we couldn't even get a drink of water. We booked this for a very special occasion and were very upset and disappointed at what should have been the highlight of the holiday.

Fabulous way to spend Christmas. Tour Manager, Mark, was excellent. No need to worry about anything as he was there to solve any problems. About a third of the group were solo travellers. Some of the ladies were apprehensive as first time solo travellers but in the event were delighted with the relaxed and friendly nature of the group. Bear in mind that this is a rail based trip. There will be train connections involving transfers to another train so you need to be reasonable fit. Try to minimise your luggage. There are not words in the English language big enough to describe the scenery in Switzerland, especially the Glacier Express trip. Also check out the Bahnmuseum Albula on your free day. And finally I used no local currency at all, all payments were contactless.

An excellent holiday. The train journeys, the hotels and the mountain scenery were superb. The tour manager and the rest of the group helped make the holiday a complete success.
