This tour was like a glimpse into Zermatt's history from its humble farming beginnings to its rise as a world-class mountaineering and ski resort. The fact that Zermatt is car-free makes a walking tour incredibly pleasant and relaxing.

We saw Church of Saint Mauritius, the Matterhorn Museum, the picturesque Church Bridge and some landmarks adorned with centuries-old craftsmanship. The tour guide unfurled captivating narratives of how Zermatt emerged from a farming village to becoming popular for mountaineering. The tranquil beauty of Zermatt was enchanting and this tour will be a memorable one for us.
