Zurich

We are staying in Zurich the middle of April for 5 nights prior to a river cruise out of Basel. We are both seniors and looking for day trips to help us see some of the country? Is it possible to take the glacier express or the Bernina Express from Zurich? I appreciate any suggestions.

Don't stay in Zürich. Your cruise probably starts in Basel. Zürich is not the most interesting part of Switzerland and expensive.

Travel to Pontresina for two nights. Do the Bernina Express and then the Glacier Express to Zermatt. Stay three nights there, and then go to Basel.
