If you are a connoisseur of fine train experiences, you should have Glacier express on your list. The train connects Switzerland`s 2 most popular resort towns Zermatt and St.Moritz. Though the train ride is beautiful all year around, synonymous to its name I recommend taking the journey during the winter months to see beautiful Swiss snowscape.
In addition to the lovely views that you see via the train`s panoramic window, this journey is also steeped in history as the train passes through UNESCO featured bridges, tunnels that were built over a century ago.

Yes, it can get expensive! Here is a hack for a bit more economical option - instead of buying the ticket for Glacier express, you can instead buy a day pass (1st or 2nd class) which can also be used in Glacier express in the respective class. And you will be required to make seat reservation at additional cost. This works out cheaper than the actual ticket price, especially if you have a half fare card and are able to plan and book your day pass in advance.
Seat reservation in Glacier express is a must.
Above suggested approach may not work for the Excellence class, as you will have to buy the regular Glacier express ticket for it.
