Hi Ashima108,

Welcome to MySwissAlps!

A list of trusted web shops to buy the Swiss Travel Pass from: http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/price

Glacier Express reservation booking: http://www.myswissalps.com/glacierexpress/tickets

Bernina Express reservation booking: http://www.myswissalps.com/berninaexpress/tickets

The Swiss Travel Pass is valid until the Swiss border. That’s Chiasso, Domodossola or Tirano in most cases. You’ll find a map here: http://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/validity. So, you need a ticket from one of those towns to Milan. That way you’re covered for the whole trip. Please see http://www.myswissalps.com/traintickets/italy for details and links to online shops to get tickets from.

Hi Ahsima108,

No, the Excellence Class is different from first class in the Glacier Express. You’ll need a separate reservation for that. Please see https://www.myswissalps.com/glacierexpress and https://www.myswissalps.com/glacierexpress/tickets.

We don’t create itineraries here, but there’s a lot of inspiration to help you out. I suggest that you start off here:

You can study the Swiss Travel Pass validity map and list of covered activities here: https://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/validity. That will help you make the most out of what it offers.

Once you have a tentative plan, feel free to post it here and we’ll be happy to help you finetune it!
