The Bernina Express Was Already One of the World’s Greatest Train Journeys. Now It Has a Pullman Class.

There are train journeys that simply get you from one destination to another.

Then there are journeys where the train itself becomes the destination.

For many travellers, Switzerland has long been regarded as the world’s greatest country to explore by rail. Its trains glide effortlessly through snow-capped mountains, turquoise lakes, charming alpine villages and engineering marvels that seem almost impossible to build.

Among them all, one journey stands above the rest.

The Bernina Express.

Recognised as part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Rhaetian Railway, the Bernina Express is one of the few rail journeys in the world where you can travel from glaciers to palm trees in a single day. Crossing 196 bridges and passing through 55 tunnels, it links the glamorous alpine resort of St. Moritz with the charming Italian town of Tirano, offering ever-changing scenery at every turn.

But if you thought this iconic railway journey couldn’t become any more special, think again.

Introducing the Bernina Express Pullman Class

New for 2026, the Bernina Express Pullman Class reimagines luxury rail travel by bringing back the romance and elegance of the golden age of travel.

Step inside one of the beautifully restored 1930s Pullman carriages and you’ll immediately notice the difference. Rich teak interiors, elegant Art Deco styling, comfortable armchairs and attentive personal service create an atmosphere reminiscent of a bygone era, where travelling wasn’t rushed but savoured.

Unlike a typical panoramic train ride, Pullman Class is designed as a complete luxury experience.

As the train winds through the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage landscape, guests are treated to champagne, canapés and carefully curated refreshments before arriving in Tirano. The journey then continues with a visit to the historic La Gatta vineyard, where a guided tour is followed by a three-course lunch paired with local wines. On the return journey, coffee and petit fours complete the experience.

To preserve its exclusivity, each departure is limited to just 32 guests.

Slow Travel at Its Finest

Luxury today is no longer about simply staying in a five-star hotel.

Increasingly, it’s about experiences that cannot be replicated.

The Pullman Class embraces this philosophy perfectly. It encourages travellers to slow down, disconnect from their busy schedules, and immerse themselves in one of Europe’s most breathtaking landscapes while enjoying exceptional hospitality along the way.

It’s an experience best shared with someone special, whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, an anniversary, a milestone birthday, or simply fulfilling a lifelong dream of travelling through the Swiss Alps in style.

More Than Just a Train Ride

At Sedunia Travel, we believe the Bernina Express should never be treated as just another sightseeing excursion.

Instead, it deserves to be the highlight of a carefully crafted Swiss holiday.

Imagine spending a few nights in elegant St. Moritz before boarding the Pullman Class, continuing on to picture-perfect Lucerne, exploring Zermatt beneath the iconic Matterhorn, or combining it with another legendary rail journey aboard the Glacier Express.

Switzerland isn’t a destination you simply visit.

It’s a destination you experience.

And there may be no finer way to experience it than aboard the Bernina Express Pullman Class.
