See the Matterhorn from the summit of the Gornergrat on a 6-hour private Tour.

Explore the Alpine village of Zermatt, learn about local mountaineering history.

Begin with pickup at your local hotel or the Zermatt railway station, then start a short walking tour through the picture-perfect town of Zermatt.

Ride the famous Gornergrat cog wheel train up to the best viewpoint of the Matterhorn. And enjoy sweeping views of the Alpine scenery during the 35-minute ride

If you wish you can hike down to the Riffelsee to take fantastic pictures of the Matterhorn.

You’ll have time to relax on the summit and learn about the surrounding landmarks, including the Monte Rosa Hut: originally a simple, stone structure for mountaineers, the new hut is ultra-modern and super efficient, with solar power and gleaming aluminum cladding.

Descend the cog railway back into Zermatt. This tour concludes with drop-off at your hotel or the Zermatt train station.

What an amazing adventure. David was our guide for the day. We rode the train to the top of Mt Gourgerat and spent time taking pictures and a hot chocolate at the lodge. We then took the train back down the mountain and got off and took a long hike back to Zermatt. David our guide was informative and a pleasure to listen to as he provided us with the history of the region and its chalet architecture. Thank you David for a wonderful and amazing adventure today!
We absolutely loved this...

We absolutely loved this tour. Our guide, Jack, met us at our hotel and first took us by train to Mt Gornergrat to see amazing views. We then toured the Zoom museum and had a lovely lunch on the mountain. After our time on the mountain, we came back by train to Zermatt where Jack showed us key sites, restaurants and shopping in Zermatt. Along the way, we learned much about the culture and history of the town. I would highly recommend the tour and Jack as the guide.
Very nice day!
