5.00The sights were absolutely breathtaking. I’ve never seen anything like the beauty of the Swiss Alps. Going up on the cableway was really fun and such a unique experience. We also went inside a glacier and saw amazing ice sculptures. This tour was the best excursion I’ve ever done in my life.

5.00Our guide Remi was very knowledgeable about Zermott and the Matterhorn. He made traversing the cable cars very simple. Although it was cloudy and snowing in May, we were able to see the Matterhorn peaking out of the clouds. He seemed to know the exact moment to look. He was also a wealth of knowledge about Switzerland. Great Experience. The Glacier Express from San Moritz to Zermott was incredible!!!!!

5.00First, Remi is a fantasic tour guide. He is a lifetime local with extensive personal experience in skiing, mountaineering, and transportation. I mistakenly booked this tour instead of the similar one that included the cog train. We really wanted to ride that. The beauty of a private tour and a fantastic guide is the flexibility. We bought our own cog rail tix and Remi incorporated that into our tour! The views were, of course, fantastic. Remi added amazing color by giving history, stories of personal experience, statistics, pictures on his tablet, anything you can imagine. He knows everything and everyone! This tour was a delight that we will treasure. P.S. the lunch at we enjoyed at the restaurant at the top of the cog rail in Gornergrat leads me to say it is a very good restaurant - to my surprise!
