Switzerland - Alpine Classic

The year is 1930. The planet Pluto has just been discovered in the dark outer reaches of our solar system. Al Capone is busy conducting shady deals in Chicago. And the magnificent art deco Glacier Express starts running through the Grisons/ Graubünden, with the inaugural journey from St. Moritz to Zermatt taking place on 22 June 1930. More than seven decades later, the legendary Alpine Classic Glacier Express is now running once more. The saloon cars, with their perfectly restored drawing-room armchairs, teak inlay, observation windows and tables are just as they were in their early heyday. An enchanting tribute to the restorer’s art. Enjoy a ride in the “Orient Express” of the Alps. Relax in the elegant sumptuousness of the historic Pullman cars, or indulge in a gourmet meal in the nostalgic dining car.
