after our cruise we wanted to see something different than waterways and we saw this iconic Matterhorn. It was really worth the money we spend and a full day of sights. Tour was well organized with all the train rides through the mountains and to the viewpoint. Had some time in Zermatt before returning to Basel. Our guide Emil did a great job and was very informative.

The scenery was beautiful even though we didn't see all of the mountain. However, we missed parts of the tour and found that we had more of an escort than a tour guide. There was no guidance on time and no information given by the tour guide.
