Absolutely fantastic, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The ride up to Gornergrat offers great views of Zermatt and the Matterhorn every single meter of the way. Once at the top, you can enjoy views of numerous glaciers and 28 four-thousanders. An unforgettable experience.

The ride is spectacular! As your trip progresses, the view widens on dramatic glaciers and beautiful mountain panoramas, including of course the majestic Matterhorn! The track itself with its multiple tunnels and viaducts is a masterpiece of engineering!

This is an ESSENTIAL trip for anyone visiting Switzerland. 'Stunning' doesn't do justice to the views you get, and it is surprising how quickly you climb out from Zermatt to see views to die for. Don't be put off if it's cloudy in the town, likelihood is the clouds will only be in the valley, and up above will be warm and sunny (as it was for us last week). I took the opportunity to hike down between two fo the train stations when we came down - probably the most beautiful walk I've ever done. 100% a 'must do'......

The Matterhorn excursion left me breathless in the best way. Watching that iconic peak rise into the sky felt like stepping into a living postcard—one painted by God Himself. The crisp air, the quiet strength of the mountain, and the sweep of the valleys below made me feel both small and deeply held. It’s humbling to stand in a place where creation speaks so loudly, reminding me how blessed I am to witness beauty that feels almost sacred.

Was unsure what to expect but our journey to the "top" was a highlight of our time and made for the perfect day trip. We rode all the way up and the hiked down to a great lunch spot! The views were beyond what we expected. Would 10/10 recommend.
