On this excursion , lasting around 13 hours, you’ll have the opportunity to travel from Milan to the town of Interlaken, situated in the Swiss Alps. Throughout the trip, you’ll be accompanied by an expert guide, from whom you can learn about the history, culture and geography of one of the most beautiful regions on the planet.

On a high-speed train, you’ll travel from Milan to the border town of Domodossola. There, you’ll board the famous Green Train of the Alps, which will cross the Swiss mountains and valleys on its way to Spiez. The route includes a journey over the Simplon Pass, a mountain pass that winds its way through the Alpine mountains and valleys, linking northern Italy with southern Switzerland.

Once in Spiez, you’ll have free time to have lunch at your leisure and visit this beautiful Swiss town, situated on the shores of Lake Thun. Afterwards, you’ll board a state-of-the-art steamboat, bound for Interlaken. From the ship’s deck, you’ll be able to take the best photos of the town, the lake and the immense mountains surrounding the region.

In Interlaken, you’ll once again have free time to stroll through its quiet streets, explore the town’s picturesque architecture or marvel at the views of the snow-capped Alps rising above the blue lake. You can also enjoy a traditional Swiss hot chocolate, prepared in the town’s many specialist chocolate shops.

Once the activity is over, you’ll take a train back to Domodossola, where an air-conditioned coach will take you back to the original starting point in Milan.
