Published on Jun, 2024

Beautiful views of Gornergrat. Zermatt is a small town. Guide was experienced guy and helped us when needed.

Our first visit to Zermatt

Published on May, 2024

Tony was our guide for the day and he was excellent!!! Met us on time at the hotel and enjoyed a nice walk around Zermatt explaining about the town, its history and development before taking the train up the mountain. I believe we saw much more and had a great experience as Tony knew where and when to get thru all there was to see and do. Very much worth the time. We would highly recommend!! Viator was very easy to deal with and very professional. A great experience!

Remi is the best!

Remi was the best! What a great guide. He met us outside our hotel, took us on a tour of Zermatt. Very knowledgeable and informative. We took the cog wheel train to the Gorgernat and saw spectacular views of the Matterhorn. So breathtaking! We had a fabulous day and truly feel blessed to have the personalized service this tour provided. Thank you Remi!

We had a wonderful time on our walking tour and gonergrat train! Our guide was so interesting and shared a lot of tips with us for our stay. I would recommend this tour to anyone and our tour was private and so much more of an experience than with a group!
