An excellently organised day trip to all the beautiful places mentioned in the description. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided very valuable insights about the places - and recommended some good spots too. In my experience this was the best day trip ever for our family :) Don’t think twice, ho ahead and book it - you’ll have a great time.

The tour is well paced and you have a good opportunity to see Lake Como, Bellagio by boat, from Varenna. The highlight was definitely St. Moritz by the Bernina express train and the beautiful road trip down by coach! Very friendly tour guide and great driver too!

Amazing, full day. A beautiful contrast to the great days we have had in Milan city. Would have loved more time in St Moritz but all in all a special and very worthwhile day. Guide and driver superb

Fantastic day out. The guide was excellent and the bus driver made the trip safe and comfortable

Excellent organized day activity. It worths to follow it, rather to do a solo one.
