The trip begins in Zurich with an overnight stay that gives you time to explore the city’s Old Town. Walk along the Limmat River, browse independent shops around Niederdorf, and settle into a café for coffee and pastries while watching daily life unfold.
-
Boarding the Bernina Express is the defining experience of the journey. Often called the ‘Little Red Train’, it winds its way through the Swiss Alps, crossing the Brusio Viaduct, skirting glaciers and passing alpine lakes like Lago Bianco before descending into Italy. With panoramic windows and a relaxed pace, it’s all about sitting back and letting the landscape change around you.
-
Arriving in Milan marks a clear shift in atmosphere. Italy’s fashion and design capital blends grand landmarks such as the Duomo di Milano with modern neighbourhoods full of galleries, aperitivo bars, and late-night buzz. Even a short stay here gives a strong sense of the city’s energy.
-
Florence rounds off the journey with a few nights to explore at a gentler pace. From the Duomo and Uffizi to quieter streets across the Arno in Oltrarno, the city has plenty of variety to explore. Accommodation throughout the trip is chosen for comfort and character, with well-appointed rooms and thoughtful facilities that make each stay feel considered rather than generic.
