Assemble at the airport and depart for Zurich, Switzerland’s financial centre.
Upon arrival, drive to St. Moritz, one of the
world’s most famous holiday resort at an
elevation of 1856m. St. Moritz first became
famous due to its mineral springs, which
were discovered some 3,000 years ago,
and established the town as a summer spa
resort early on. Embark on an orientation
tour of the city with your tour manager and
view the unique Leaning Tower of St.
Mortiz, which is vying for the title of the
‘most inclined tower in Europe'.
Note: St. Moritz will be replaced with Davos if hotel
accommodation is not available and the Glacier Express ride will
begin from Davos on the following day.
Get set for an incredible ride onboard the
Glacier Express – the world’s most famous
panorama train. Travel in comfort as you
traverse from the eastern to western Swiss
Alps by train, a scenic 8-hour journey from
St. Moritz to Zermatt. The route brings you
through 91 tunnels and across 291 bridges,
bringing you panoramic views of snow
-capped mountains, breathtaking rivers,
peaceful alpine pastures, magical castles,
and charming villages. You will then enjoy a
three-course lunch onboard the train.
Arrive in Zermatt, where you will spend the
night.
After breakfast, board the world’s first fully
electrified cog railway – the Gornergrat
Bahn – which starts from the village centre
in Zermatt, through verdant forests and
lovely meadows up to the Gornergat
(3,089m). Here, you’ll find Switzerland’s
highest hotel, the 3100 Kulmhotel
Gornergrat. From the observation platform,
you’ll be treated to magnificent views of the
Monte Rosa massif with Switzerland’s
highest peak (Dufourspitze, 4,634 m); the
second-largest glacier in the Alps, the Gorner
Glacier; and a total of 29 mountains above
4,000 m, including the Matterhorn in all its
glory. Afterwards, continue your journey
down to Rotenboden station for a
15-minute gentle downhill trek that leads you
to the lake of Riffelsee (2,757m). The placid
waters of the lake reflect the majestic and
jagged Matterhorn, one of nature’s finest
spectacles. In the afternoon, visit the
Matterhorn Museum for a deeper insight
into the history and development of Zermatt.
Note: The walk to Riffelsee Lake depends on the conditions on
the ground, if it is covered with thick snow, it is not possible to
walk to the lake.
Travel to Saas-Fee by bus, a resort village
that is also known as ‘’The Pearl of the
Alps’’. Located at an altitude of 1800m
above sea level and surrounded by 13
Travel to Saas-Fee by bus, a resort village
that is also known as ‘’The Pearl of the
Alps’’. Located at an altitude of 1800m
above sea level and surrounded by 13 four-thousand-metre peaks, its breathtaking
landscape of beautiful mountains and
glaciers is simply amazing to behold. Go for
a ride on Metro Alpin, the highest
underground train in the world to reach the
Mittelallalin (3456m), a summit on one of
the most famous peaks of all, The Allalinhorn
(4027m). Take a breather as you sip a cup of
coffee or enjoy a glass of champagne at the
highest revolving restaurant in the world,
3,500m above sea level. Aside from the
sumptuous cuisine, Restaurant Allalin offers
glorious views of seemingly endless
mountain peaks that transforms as the
restaurant revolves 360-degrees hourly. After
which, get your hearts and cameras ready
for an endearing animal encounter where
you’ll get the chance to feed the marmots
of Saas-Fee. Marmots are a protected
species in Saas-Fee with no natural
predators, thus they are extremely friendly to
the point where you can feed them and
even pat them.
Note: Feeding of Marmots is only available starting end-April
2020 to mid-October 2020. There will be no replacement for
departure outside this timing. Marmots are wild animals, there is
no guarantee of seeing them despite the high chances of seeing it.
Spend the morning free at leisure to
explore on your own, or you may wish to
join an optional glacier walking tour with a
guide to enjoy the marvellous nature that
Saas-Fee has to offer! Not to worry,
professional equipment will be provided,
and the terrain is pretty flat so it won't be
too strenuous. In the afternoon, visit Barryland – home to the famous St.
Bernard dogs! You’ll get to explore the
history of the Swiss national dog, watch
the dogs frolic around in the park grounds,
stroke a St. Bernard and even have a
picture taken with them! Thereafter, travel
to Montreux to rest for the night.
Optional: Glacier Walking Tour
Enjoy the best leg of the Golden Pass Line,
which starts with the Mediterranean
ambience of Montreux before the train
begins its climb above the lake and passes
through a tunnel. Coming out at the other
end, you’ll find yourself among alpine
forests, bubbling mountain springs and
picturesque mountain villages. The train
then continues to Zweisimmen,
transporting you through fairy-tale
landscapes. After which, board the scenic
cruise ride on the clear, blue waters of
Lake Thun, the largest lake in the Bernese
Oberland entirely located in the Canton of
Bern. Admire stunning vistas of green
meadows, forests, majestic alps as well as
the eternally white peaks of the Eiger,
Mönch and Jungfrau beyond. Continue on
your journey by train from Interlaken up to
Grindelwald – a well-known mountain
village which lies at the foot of the iconic
north face of Eiger Mountain. Enjoy a stroll
along its picturesque street surrounded by
towering mountains.
Spend the morning at leisure exploring on
your own, or you may choose to join an
optional excursion to ascend the famous
‘’Top of Europe’’ – Jungfraujoch. You will be
able to explore the Ice Palace with its
timeless sculptures, walk through the tunnel
of Alpine Sensation and tread on the biggest
glacier in Switzerland. Afterwards, hop on the
Lucerne-Interlaken Express for an
unforgettable journey right into the heart of
Switzerland, Lucerne. This scenic ride takes
you along the shores of crystal-clear lakes
(no less than five!), past romantic waterfalls
and over the magnificent Brünig mountain
pass. After experiencing some of the most
spectacular views the Swiss Alps have to offer
through the large panoramic windows, you
will arrive at your destination for the night.
Optional: Jungfraujoch
Embark on an orientation tour of Lucerne
with your tour manager. Visit the Old
Chapel Bridge – the oldest wooden bridge
in Switzerland, Old Town Lucerne with its
unspoiled buildings covered with colourful
murals and the Lion Monument. Then,
make your way to the Glacier Garden
Museum, which was discovered in 1872.
Here, you’ll find glacial potholes that date
back to the Ice Age. Continue on to Zurich,
the lively city of Switzerland, and join an
orientation tour to discover its fascinating
attractions and sights. From its diverse
cuisine to its historical highlights, Zurich has
something for everyone. Drop by the Swiss
National Museum, one of the most
prominent art museums that encompass
the cultural history of Europe. Afterwards,
proceed to Zurich Airport for an overnight

Tour: 10D7N Grand Train Tour of Switzerland 1 Oct to 9 Oct 2019 Tour Manager: 王家福(Jiafu) My wife and I went for the above tour and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Our tour manager Jiafu is very hardworking, resourceful, caring and professional. He provided excellent services to the group throughout the trip. We will book our future trips with EU again and hope that Jiafu will again be the tour manager.

Tour: 10D/7N Grand Train Tour Switzerland plus 2N Dubai Date: 1-12 October 2019 Tour Manager: Wang Jia Fu 2 years ago we travel with EU Tours to Norway and on the first day 10 of us were lost by the irresponsible tour guide. We are glad that we decided to give EU a second chance and met with a totally different experience and in spite of having my luggage broken on the first move by the train porters and in spite of the unappetizing food we had been given and despite the sun-tanned Glacier Express (aka Sunshine Express to us now).... we applaud the efforts and dedication of Wang Jiafu who really made the big difference and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We will like to have other opportunities to join Jiafu's led tours again. We truly believe that the tour manager really makes a huge impact on the success of the tour.

10D7N GRAND TRAIN TOUR OF SWITZERLAND (02 Oct 2019) Joined EU for the first time n I’m glad that I signed up for it! It was really memorable n amazing with all the lovely experiences n friendships forged from this trip. Special mention to our tour leader, Jia Fu who was very patient n understanding with our concerns, ensuring that our needs n wants were well-catered n taken care of. Would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a fuss-free n enjoyable trip.

Tour : 10D7N Grand Train Tour of Switzerland + 2N Dubai Date : 01 - 12 Oct 2019 Tour Manager : Jia Fu My husband and I went on this tour and we had a wonderful time in Switzerland. Commuting was by train and sometimes by bus. We had to walk between hotel and train stations and walk to all the sightseeing locations. Although we did not have a tour coach to ferry us around, travelling on the Swiss trains was a comfortable and pleasant experience nonetheless. Our tour manager Jia Fu did a very good job in leading all 36 of us. He made sure that we were on time for all the train rides. He would diligently go round the cabins to make sure that everyone was ok. All the itineraries were carried out smoothly and at a relaxed pace. Hotel accommodation was good. But with regards to the meal plan (lunch and dinner) it would be good if guests were given the option to choose their preferred choice of meat for the main course. Nevertheless we did have an enjoyable vacation. All thanks to our very responsible tour manager Jia Fu who had put in a lot of hard work to make this trip a memorable and delightful experience for us. We will definitely choose EU Holidays for our future vacations.

My family and I went for the Grand Train Tour of Switzerland from the 1st to 12 October. Our tour manager was Wang Jia Fu. He was very witty, caring and knowledgeable. He would constantly tell us interesting stories about the country, get souvenirs for us, making sure we get the most out of the trip. He would also always remind us on the following day’s weather to make sure that we are in the right attire. In addition to normal tour manager responsibilities, he went an extra mile to make our trip as enjoyable as possible. For example, arranging a birthday cake for my mum which took us by surprise, buying us beer and wine to accompany our meals, and personally booking a coach for us from Zurich Airport to the train station so that we did not have to go through the trouble of handling our luggage (not part of the original tour package). This was our first tour with EU Holidays and I will definitely join EU Holidays for another tour again if it is led by Jia Fu.

Charles Low
Just completed our 10d grand train swiss tour with our wonderful tour leader (Ong Jia Fu aka Michael). He is definitely one of the most experienced and well- thought tour guide i ever seen. As we only joined the land tour and flew in earlier, he made the effort to contact us prior to our flight to answer any qns that we may have. Its not easy for a tour guide to plan everything beforehand esp with all the train rides and timing to make the whole trip smooth. This trip do not include any coaches or any other local guides. He self-handedly brief us on all the local attractions and history! At all times assuring us not to worry on the train timing and gave us ample time to take pictures/shopping/makan. Definitely will want to join tours guided by Jia Fu in the future and im sure the rest of the tour members share the same thoughts too. Will be sharing this good experience with friends! Well Done and thumbs up Jiafu!! Great selection of hotels/resorts by EU holidays (Rooms were quality, clean and comfortable). Unique train tour organised by EU holidays which is different from other group tours. It will be even better if theres additional stopover/ overnight in Bern for future itinerary.

I would like to compliment our tour manager Darien Tang for our switzerland trip 10 days on 06 - 15 September 2019. Darien has helped my friend arrange a doctor to the hotel. He waited and slept at lobby until 3am due to doctor came very late, i think the doctor came to hotel around midnight. He never complaint and very helpful. He already excess the tour manager duties. He even used his own pocket money bought a fish burger for me when i was not able find the fish burger meals at mcdonald. The video created by him also very amazing and keep us always remember this trip. Dear Darien, thank you so much and Well done. EU holiday Pte Ltd will be my first choice for my holidays trip.
