Question Day Trip: Tirano to Zurich via Bernina Express

[BucketListBen]

I'm planning a day trip traveling on the Bernina Express from Tirano to Chur, then heading to Zurich to join some friends. I’ve heard the views are breathtaking, but I'm curious about the timing and any must-see stops along the way. Is it feasible to make it all in one day? Any tips on how to maximize the experience would be greatly appreciated!

That sounds like an incredible adventure! The Bernina Express is famous for its stunning landscapes, and you can definitely make the trip in a day. I recommend starting early in Tirano and taking the train to Chur. Make sure to stop for photos at the Landwasser Viaduct and the Morteratsch Glacier along the way. To maximize your experience, pack some snacks and enjoy them while taking in the views. Have you thought about what time you’ll leave to ensure you have enough time in Zurich with your friends?
