Your holiday begins on the shores of Lake Como, where elegant waterfront towns such as Bellagio and Varenna set the pace. Spend time wandering narrow cobbled streets, watching ferries cross the lake, and lingering over fresh pasta, local fish, and a glass of Lombardy wine at waterside restaurants. Staying in nearby Lecco also gives you the chance to enjoy a quieter side of the lake, where broad promenades and mountain views create a relaxed atmosphere.

Next, you'll travel into the Swiss Alps and the stylish resort of St Moritz, long known for its grand hotels and beautiful mountain setting. Surrounded by crystal-clear lakes and dramatic peaks, it's the perfect place to stroll through elegant streets, stop for Swiss chocolate or coffee, and take in a completely different side of the region. The contrast between the peaceful lakes of Italy and the fresh Alpine scenery makes this part of the journey particularly memorable.

One of the highlights of this trip follows as you board the Bernina Express for a journey through spectacular mountain landscapes. The route climbs past glaciers, forests, rushing rivers, and charming Alpine villages before crossing the remarkable Brusio Spiral Viaduct, an engineering masterpiece that has become one of Switzerland's most recognisable railway landmarks.
