Stunning scenery - The entire day was absolutely breathtaking and incredibly well organized, from our pick-up in Milan to our arrival in St. Moritz. Luca is not only a fantastic guide but also a wonderful person. Throughout the journey, he highlighted key landmarks and introduced us to some of the most beautiful spots. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour and Luca; I’d jump at the chance to do it again! Thank you for the amazing experience, Luca!

Brilliant trip, beautiful views - This was the second time we had travelled on the Bernina Train. But the first time in a small group and this was so much better. We took the train from Milan Central and got off at Varenna at Lake Como, had a walk through the town and took photos before boarding our minibus up to Tirano where we had time for lunch and then our own carriage on the Bernina train. The views are spectacular and in St Moritz you get another short visit before taking the minibus back to the train home. Very well organised. Great guide. Excellent value

Excellent Tour with Paola - Our experience on the Bernina scenic train ride was made truly unforgettable thanks to our wonderful guide, Paola. From start to finish, she was incredibly helpful, joyful, and full of enthusiasm. Her deep knowledge of the history and fascinating facts about the route, the landscapes, and the engineering marvel of the railway added so much depth to the journey. Paola’s storytelling made the breathtaking scenery even more special, and she was always ready to answer questions with a warm smile. She ensured that everyone felt comfortable and engaged throughout the ride. Her passion for the region was evident, and she went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable for all. If you're taking this journey, I highly recommend having Paola as your guide. Her energy, expertise, and kindness made this trip one to remember! Thank you, Paola!

Best day of our 9 day trip to Italy! - Amazing experience! If you're considering this day trip, do it! I read reviews of many companies that offer a trip like this, and I have to say I am THRILLED we chose to go with this company. The meeting point was easy to find and every thing was well planned and explained! We started at the train station in Milan. We had stops in Lake Como and St. Moritz. Luca was our tour guide and extremely knowledgeable about the people, places, cuisine, shopping, and more. He will guide you to fantastic views, satisfying food, and great shopping. Literal breathtaking views of the Italian and Swiss Alps. Very clear directions on what to do during the trip. Safe and comfortable journey through several mountain towns with insight into local products and culture. I highly recommend this trip. By far, our favorite day of a 9-day visit to Italy.

Well organised Bernina tour - I was glad to book this tour. There were only 4 of us and the tour still went ahead. Everything was organised well, Luca was great with his guiding and driving. He was quiet but he made sure we were looked after. Don't hesitate to book with LucafromItaly.
