Tip for those who wish to save money on this stretch: cut your journey in 2 pieces in 2 subsequent days, using local (express ) trains only on the same route: First take the RE (Regional express) via the Albula route from St.Moritz to Chur about 2 1/2 hr ride running every hour. This is a regular train and you pay the regular price. In Chur stay overnight, Next morning thake the regular train (runs hourly) to Disentis/Muster where you have to change (direct correspondence) to the Matterhorn Gothard Bahn which takes you (mostly direct, but with many stops) via Andermatt to Brig and Zermatt.

I have done this from chur in first class. The benefit was you can always open the windows. (the "Express" was full) And it did not take longer! And when you taking more train rides think about swiss travel pass.

I must go book this trip - absolutely stunning. One word of advice I had learnt from my brother when he was at university. I had noticed when he returned that from time to time he would wear his tops inside out when I went to moms house. Never thought anything of it but discovered he did it to so that if spelt food down it wouldn't matter because he just reversed it the right way when going out and no one was none the wiser. So if your daughter messes her top again just turn it inside out.

I've been on the Bernina express 2 weeks ago, right around the time you released your Bernina express video. And I really enjoyed the beautiful train ride. 😍 I think I have to return for the Glacier express in the future! Another money saving tip for Switzerland: buy a Interrail/Eurail pass, you can use it for all trains including Bernina and Glacier express and the Golden Pass. You still have to book your seat separately but you'll still save TONS of money.

That fondue looked amazing, probably it's weight worth in gold. How much did Hunter enjoy her favorite food group,cheese? To be honest, in this absolutely beautiful place and at such altitude, any piece of bred and cheese would probably taste amazing. Thanks again for a deLIGHTFUL video. Loving every bit! ♥️
