Hi all

Has anyone done the excursion St Moritz and the Bernina Express on the Lake Como Holiday? I going to Lake Como this June and I was wondering what this trip was like. I know this might sound silly but do I need to pack extra warm clothes for this trip to St Moritz? Any advice and tips would be helpful.

I went on the Bernina Express about 3 years ago,and have visited Switzerland several times,you need to dress in layers,a sweater and/or a light jacket,it is generally not cold during the summer. Although another time visiting Zermatt,I had been told it was always sunny and warm so didn't dress particularly warmly and got caught out by bad weather.The few hours,in St Moritz,were warm enough to eat lunch in the open,but,there was a rain shower later.The train journey is spectacular as it works its way from Italy to St.Moritz,as the line switches back and forth,both sides of the carriage get the views.

Hi Cheryl

Good for you for taking the plunge, I know it is not easy and this will only be my second holiday with JY after losing my husband a few years ago. I was very very nervous the first time I went on my own but I had a fabulous time and met some lovely people from all walks of life. I'm going on the 13th which is a shame as otherwise we could of met at Heathrow to support each other. Maybe you could put a message on the community and see if any body else is going on the same day and meet up at Heathrow, that's what I did and it help, and I will be doing the same nearer my holiday date. Lake Como looks beautiful and I'm looking forward to see some more of the country as I love Italy. I wish you good luck on your first trip.
