Your experience on the Glacier Express

Enjoy a legendary Alpine journey

Step aboard the iconic Glacier Express and experience the serene beauty of Switzerland. This legendary train is famed as the world’s slowest express, offering a one-of-a-kind panoramic journey between Zermatt, Chur and St. Moritz. Whether you begin your adventure in the car-free Zermatt or the historic town of Chur, or set off from the exclusive resort of St. Moritz, the Glacier Express promises unmatched Alpine views and a luxurious onboard atmosphere.

Spectacular views through the heart of the Alps

Marvel at the Swiss Alps through wide panoramic and skylight windows. Glide past remarkable landmarks such as the massive Matterhorn, the ever-changing Valais landscapes, and the dramatic twists of the Rhine Gorge, often called the Swiss Grand Canyon. Throughout your journey, you will traverse the 2,033-meter Oberalp Pass, cross the famous Landwasser Viaduct and see glacial rivers carving through pristine valleys. Each window reveals endless vistas of snow-capped peaks and postcard-perfect villages, providing unforgettable photo opportunities with every turn.

Travel in comfort and style

Choose your preferred class. Relax in the quieter atmosphere and spacious legroom of 1st class, or enjoy the comfort and value of 2nd class—both ensuring a reserved seat for every guest. The Glacier Express coaches are designed for maximum comfort, featuring air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi and USB charging at every table. Optional onboard catering delivers regional flavors right to your seat, letting you dine as Switzerland’s best scenery unfolds outside your window.

Embrace Swiss culture at every stop
