It was an incredible experience from start to finish. From the ease of purchasing tickets on the app to finding the train at St. Moritz station (they are the last trains from left to right, red and unmistakable). The trip is even more enjoyable thanks to the panoramic windows that can be opened. The landscapes are wonderful and unforgettable, and the route is very well designed for enjoying and photographing every moment. It was a tremendous experience and we are very happy to have had it.

I took a trip from Chur to Saint Moritz to Tirano on the Bernina red line - not the Bernina express but from what I can see, equally as impressive. The train was 10-15% capacity in January and I had so much space to move around the train. The windows lowered from inside the cabin to capture pictures and take in the breathtaking views. Staff were friendly, train was clean and the world heritage accreditation is an understatement. What an incredibly journey and experience.

We are very happy traveling as a family on the train🚃 it's very pleasant and enjoyable. For our next trip, we will take the Bernina Pyramid Express train. I hope you will give our family a special deal. We will return with our family and advertise your Bernina Express train. See you soon. Best regards❤️😘

I liked the trip on the red train much more than on the panoramic train, as you can open the windows, and despite the cold, the views and the photos are breathtaking. I traveled on it by chance on the way to St. Moritz because there were only tickets available on the panoramic train for the return journey, and I would definitely choose that trip again. I recommend traveling in first class and dressing very warmly with gloves.

This was a wonderful experience. Well forth the visit. Travelling on the red train was superior to the bernina express.. views from train excellent and stops at more locations allowing you to hop on and hop off. Plan ahead and stop along the journey and take a cable car from one of the request stops Excellent experience done hesitate to book

No words to explain the experience u get travelling on the Bernina! Certainly lives up to the hype of traversing through the alps on the iconic train! Gives u the opportunity to get down and play in the snow or indulge in winter sports!! Tickets to travel on the bernina get exhausted very fast if u don't book it in advance!! While the parent website and many other sites did not show availability, I was able to secure tickets for my family through Headout!! Many many thanks for this and made the trip wholly memorable!!
