We looked at booking the Bernina express train ourselves but looked a little complicated and tight on time so this tour was perfect! You get good views from both sides but the glacier & lakes has the best view from the right It was a great way to have a taste of Switzerland and something a bit different to your usual tourist spots when in Milan

The scenery in Switzerland was beautiful but I felt that it would have been nice to have a little more time to look around St Moritz. A very long day was spent sitting down most of the time. The guides were nice.
