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.

We explored the Matterhorn with the Gornergrat railway. Everything worked out well with the tickets so far, with one criticism: we lined up with the CR code tickets we were sent, but we discovered that you have to redeem the CR code ticket for the actual entry ticket at the ticket counter beforehand. So, after a long wait in line, we had to go back to the ticket counter. Suggested solution: maybe a note during ticket purchase that you first have to get a real ticket, or did I miss that?

An exceptional value and experience. I travel in an out of several cities, and needed nothinmore than my Pass. It's just the piece of mind it offers instead of continually buying tickets and being limited by your schedule or appointments.

Everything was great. On the whole, everything went smoothly. It was nice and sunny; we stopped at Eismeer on the way up. The only thing that wasn't clear was that we were supposed to be at the station for the cogwheel railway to the Jungfrau by 10:15, and not just at the Eiger Express. The staff were very relaxed about it. Thank you.

An easy, fast, and comfortable climb up to the White Paradise A fun and educational 1.5-hour stay at the summit before the descent, which we finally decided to do on foot from the top of the cable car to savor the wonderful landscapes of the Jungfrau region even longer. A wonderful memory that will stay with us for many years

We went early, queued before it opened & had the best views without the crowds - absolutely stunning! Wonderful seeing all the different peaks from up there along with climbers heading further up. I don't necessarily agree with the need to ski in August but some were being pulled up (& down!) by snow mobiles - spoilt the tranquility really. The ice caves were something else, wow! The sculptures were amazing! Worth every penny (even the 2chf to use the loo, which you get back if you buy anything even a coffee)

We booked a tour because we were afraid that it would be difficult to navigate on our own. The tour was cancelled, so we bought the cable car tickets online. How fortunate for us that the tour was cancelled! The cable car was so easy to use, and we saved a lot of money by booking ourselves. We were able to spend the day at our leisure, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I would highly recommend booking this on your trip to Zermatt.

At first there were some issues, because the pass couldn't be added to the platform. Due to generous help, I was able to successfully add it and I could travel. And the journey is wonderful. I will definitely travel again to another country with trains.
