*Please note: seats on the bus are allocated, but seats on the Bernina Red Train are not allocated, but our agency has an entire carriage for the whole group, so don't worry about seats on the train: we will all be seated!

IMPORTANT NOTE: 

 -> Our carriage is the "Bernina Red Train", NOT the "Bernina Express". What's the difference?

** "Trenino Rosso del Bernina" (ours) - -> Panoramic windows that open, allowing you to breathe the mountain air. You can lean out the window to take all your "Instagrammable photos" (example : second photo gallery)

** "Bernina Express" (NOT ours) - - > Windows slightly larger, but NOT openable. You will sit throughout the journey, taking pictures through a window. If the sun reflects off the windows, the photos will be blurry and will NOT be a good memory. (Not recommended)

 - - > In conclusion : our carriage of the "Bernina Red Train" is much better!!
