We enjoyed two fantastic days of touring with Julian. He picked us up from our Viking River cruise promptly, and kept us entertained with many stops, picture opportunities, a delicious lunch of raclette, and lots of information about the area. After he dropped us off at our hotel in Lucerne, he still provided suggestions for our meals and activities for the days we were on our own. He then picked us up for our second day of touring, and again provided a wonderful day of exploring and a fun picnic lunch where he also brought us homemade baked goods that he prepared himself. Delicious!
Julian was professional, engaging and very accommodating to our needs. I would highly recommend using this company and Julian for any touring needs in Switzerland.
10-Day St. Moritz Winter
Dream: A Private Journey
in the Engadine
Skiing, glamour, glacier flights and deep alpine wellness
10 Days · 9 Nights | Private & Guided | St. Moritz, Engadine
A flagship winter itinerary in the birthplace of alpine winter tourism
- 10 Days
- St. Moritz
- Winter
Overview
Highlights
St. Moritz has been the byword for alpine glamour since 1864, when the world’s first winter tourists arrived to a valley of frozen lakes, glittering light and impossibly blue skies.
This ten-day private winter journey gives you the Engadine at its most complete and unhurried, sunlit skiing and skijoring, a helicopter flight to a caviar tasting on a secret glacier, an Italian escape to Lake Como, and long, restorative days of wellness.
All of it runs from the comfort of Grace La Margna, the beautifully restored 1906 hotel in the heart of the town. Every day is shaped around you, with a private guide and driver whenever needed.
There is time to be thrilled and time simply to relax. A horse-drawn carriage through a silent valley one day, a floodlit night-ski down Switzerland’s longest illuminated piste the next, and always the spa, the boutiques and the grand old cafes of St. Moritz waiting below.
Schedule
Afternoon
A private chauffeur meets you at Zurich or Milano airport for the scenic drive into the mountains. On request, a short private flight into the Engadine airport at Samedan is also possible.
Settle into Grace La Margna, the lovingly restored 1906 luxury hotel on Via Serlas, and into its calm, elegant embrace.
Evening
A guided St. Moritz food tour with your private guide, tasting your way through specialities. Air-dried Bündnerfleisch, hearty capuns, mountain cheeses and a slice of the famous Engadine walnut tart at a historic confiserie.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
The mountains are yours. With a private ski guide leading you onto advanced terrain shaped to your wishes, or a patient instructor on the gentle, sunlit blues, you take to the Engadine’s finest.
That means Corviglia above the town, or the glacier heights of Corvatsch and Diavolezza.
Afternoon
A delicious lunch on a sun terrace with a view of the frozen lakes, then more skiing, or an early turn back toward the spa.
Evening
Dinner at The Stack, the hotel’s characterful brasserie and steakhouse.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A drive to Sils Maria and the entrance of the car-free Val Fex, where a horse-drawn carriage carries you up the silent, snow-filled valley beneath frozen peaks and old stone hamlets. It is one of the most timeless experiences in all the Engadine.
Afternoon
Back in St. Moritz, an afternoon among the boutiques of Via Serlas, the highest luxury shopping mile in the Alps, where the great names sit just steps below your hotel.
Evening
Aperitifs at the elegant No.5 bar and dinner at leisure.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A relaxed start, with the spa, or a stroll along the shore of the frozen lake.
Afternoon
The signature flourish of the journey. One of our private helicopter flights lifts off from St. Moritz for a breathtaking flight over the Bernina glaciers and the glittering frozen Engadine lakes.
You then touch down at a secluded alpine setting for a private caviar and champagne tasting, the peaks all around, and utter privacy.
Evening
A celebratory dinner at The View, the hotel’s Mediterranean restaurant, lake and mountains beyond the glass.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
Nothing on the schedule but rest. The 700-square-metre (7,500-square-foot) Grace spa is yours, with a twenty-metre pool, hydrotherapy, sauna and steam, followed by a signature massage to melt away the miles.
Afternoon
A gentle wander through St. Moritz, a hot chocolate at a grand old cafe, and time simply to be, with the mountains glowing outside.
Evening
A quiet, unhurried dinner in the hotel.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
Out on the frozen lake, a guided introduction to skijoring, the daredevil Engadine sport in which you stand on skis, reins in hand, as a galloping horse pulls you across the ice, an expert alongside you every moment.
Afternoon
The historic Muottas Muragl funicular climbs to 2,456 metres and one of the great panoramas of the Engadine, its lakes strung out far below.
From the top, a thrilling toboggan run sweeps you back down through the snow.
Evening
Dinner at leisure in the town.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A scenic drive south over the Maloja Pass and down into Italy, the alpine white slowly giving way to the soft, silvery light of Lake Como.
Afternoon
A gentle winter’s day by the water. The elegant lakeside town of Como and, across the lake, romantic Bellagio, hushed and crowd-free out of season.
It is all wrapped around a long, unhurried Italian lunch of risotto, fresh pasta and fine Lombardy wines.
Evening
The drive back to the Engadine as the peaks turn rose and gold, then a relaxed evening at the hotel.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A leisurely morning to spend as you please, with the spa, a winter walk by the lake, or a few more turns on the slopes.
Afternoon
Time to rest and gather yourself before the evening’s adventure, perhaps with tea and pastries in the town.
Evening
The Corvatsch Snow Night. Every Friday, the longest illuminated piste in Switzerland: 4.2 kilometres of floodlit snow from the Murtèl middle station down to Surlej.
A cosy fondue at the Alpetta mountain restaurant waits along the way. (Available on Friday evenings.)
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A final, gentle day in the Engadine, with a last ski, a quiet spa morning, or a little more shopping on Via Serlas.
Afternoon
Time at leisure, and perhaps a last stroll to watch the light change over the frozen lake.
Evening
The second signature experience. As night falls, a private snowcat climbs through moonlit snowfields to a secluded alpine hut, where a candlelit gourmet dinner of alpine specialities and fine wine awaits.
A guided starlit stroll beneath the high, silent Alps follows, an unforgettable farewell to the mountains.
Overnight: Grace La Margna, St. Moritz
Morning
A final unhurried Swiss breakfast and a last hour by the lake, before your private transfer to the airport, the sparkle of a St. Moritz winter going home with you.
Overnight: Journey concludes

Quick Facts About This Swiss Tour
St. Moritz has hosted the Winter Olympic Games twice and claims to be the birthplace of alpine winter tourism, since 1864.
The Corvatsch Snow Night is the longest illuminated ski run in Switzerland, 4.2 kilometres (2.6 miles), floodlit every Friday.
Skijoring on the frozen lake is a St. Moritz original, raced each February at the historic White Turf.
Grace La Margna is a five-star superior luxury hotel in a restored 1906 building, its roof laid with slate mined in the nearby Val Fex. Five-star superior is verified against Switzerland Tourism’s listing and the property’s own materials, so we can state it rather than implying it.
Muottas Muragl, at 2,456 metres (8,058 feet), offers one of the most celebrated panoramas in the Engadine.
