Trans-Alpina - Crossing the Alps in train
Breathing the fresh air, you feel your hair floating in the wind. Surrounded by silence you can barely hear an eagle crying. It is turning around, free, between two snow-covered peaks. The time is suspended. How regenerative it is to live the “Trans-Alpina” tour !
Before planning your visit to Switzerland, please take into consideration the fact that there are 3 International airports: Geneva, Zurich and Milano. To improve your trip through the Alps, an open jaw concept (arrival and departure to/from different airports) is often ideal. This avoids backtracking and save transportation to keep a maximum time for visiting.
