    Just wanted to say a personal thanks to our driver-guide for all their help while on this amazing tour. The communication with STC during the trip was fantastic. Really felt supported throughout the holiday. The quality of the hotels and the train journeys were sensational. Highlights include the Matterhorn in Zermatt and Jungfrauhoch. We’d certainly recommend people to book this tour.

    Found this website and booked the Grand Train tour of Switzerland, as we had always wanted to go on the Glacier express. Jose was so helpful and answered all our questions. It was a brilliant trip and all the accommodation and train travel was fantastic.
