This was a wonderful morning with an extremely knowledgeable tour guide and his apprentice. In our short time together we learned so much about Zermatt and about climbing the Matterhorn. We saw the climbers Walk of Fame, again which we didn't know existed. After the tour we wanted to take the train up to the observation site and our guide helped us get the tickets and our apprentice was doing that and even guided us up there. Excellent day!

Our first visit to Zermatt and it proved to be a wonderful experience! Our local guide, Mike, is a delight to work with - a professional! His expansive knowledge is evident in tour itinerary. My husband and I were able to appreciate this well-known alpine resort not just for the tourism it represents, but more so for its history and cultural significance. This was truly an enjoyable and informative visit!
First time to Zermatt - a must!!

Anton Imoberdorf (Tony) was a great tour guide. He started by sitting us down and explaining Switzerland with a map we kept. We learned some history and basics before walking around Zermatt. His English was great, he has a great sense of humor and put up with all our (a lot) questions. He even joined us for the Matterhorn Museum which we had planned to visit later that day. We learned so much about Switzerland and Zermatt, which we never would have learned just walking around ourselves.
nice walk for our first time in Zermatt
