The Bernina Express, or “Bernina red train” because of its red livery, runs from Tirano, in the upper Valtellina, Italy to Sankt Moritz in Switzerland.
This train crosses alpine landscapes, climbs peaks (it reaches 2,232 m. a.s.l.), runs through tunnels and suspended viaducts that cross the Alps between Italy and Switzerland. The view is breathtaking and a great experience both in summer, when everything is blooming and in winter, when the train makes its way through huge amounts of snow.
During our tour you’ll be able to taste the local cuisine of Valtellina, one of the most curious and peculiar food tradition all over Italy: discover the local wines, some of the best in Italy, local cheese and the pizzoccheri, the most bizarre kind of pasta you’ll ever taste!

Do you know that you can stop on the way for an amazing excursion on chariots or sledges (when the area is covered by snow) pulled by horses along the charming Val Roseg? Try an experience impossible to forget!
