Mt. Titlis from Zurich in a guided 9-hour trip with Rotair 360, Cliff Walk, glacier cave, snow fun, plus Lucerne time by coach.
“Shoes with some traction for slick surfaces. Amazing views. Great tour guide. The rotating ride with view wow!”
Zurich to Mt. Titlis, Glacier Paradise, and Lucerne in 9 hours with ROTAIR gondola, ice grotto, cliff walk, and weather-based extras.
“We loved the experience, Carsten was a great guide. Dragon the driver was also nice. Unable to do the ice flyer due to wind, but we managed everything else. The only area that could be better was whilst in the bus, other passengers were playing their phones without headphones and this was annoying and distracting. Being told to wear headphones during the initial brief and then monitoring this throughout the journey would be good. Overall a good trip.”
13-hour day trip from Geneva to Zermatt, with optional Matterhorn Glacier Paradise cable car to 3,883 m for alpine views.
“Amazing day, more than expected! Babis our guide was excellent and was with us throughout the whole day. He kept us entertained, updated and in the know with all of his knowledge. I was told by another guide that guides don’t usually join you actually in the excursion as it is a long day which is understandable. However babis looked after us all day long aswell as managing the driving safely. Even back in Geneva at 9pm as we had ran slightly late due to traffic, he was still pointing out landmarks and telling us all about them. The excursion itself was absolutely excellent, the cable car option is a…”
Day trip from Geneva to Zermatt with Matterhorn views, electric shuttles, and optional Glacier Paradise cable car at 3,883 meters.
“Disappointment with utter apathy of Keytours The tour van met with a horrible horrible accident 1.5 hours into the trip. Its both rear wheels detached, ran meters away from the van, which dangerously tilted on one side. This was on a busy motorway and could have been a fatal accident. We wasted 2.5 hours waiting for the replacement van shortening our rather expensive trip. Let alone any refunds or compensation, no company representative even met us on return to apologize. We almost lost our lives and in any case lost precious time from an expensive trip. We demand a written apology from Keytours and an appropriate compensation amounting to $400…”
Lausanne to Zermatt day trip with Matterhorn views, car-free village time, Taesch electric shuttle, and optional Glacier Paradise cable car.

Half-day cable car trip from Zermatt to Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, with Glacier Palace, 360 views, and time to explore with a small group.
“This was a fantastic adventure. The weather wasn't very good but Tony made the day very enjoyable and educational. He was very personal, had exceptional knowledge of the area's history and traditions. He went well out of his way to make the tour a fun time. We highly recommend this tour.”

Private Klein Matterhorn full-day hike with Glacier Palace ice tunnels, gondola Matterhorn views, and the glacier trail to Schwarzsee.
“Cedric was a wonderful guide. We met at the Zermatt station and we took the gondola to Furi to Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, which included an amazing (very cold!) view of the Matterhorn and the ice palace. Then we traveled to Schwarsee Lake and the chapel then took the gondola back to Furi to Riffelberg. We hiked up to Riffelsee to see an amazing view of the Matterhorn with gorgeous reflections of Matterhorn on the lake. We stopped there for a lunch break and hiked back down to Riffelalp with a slight detour to see the sheep. It was a great day and we hit all of the highlights plus some…”
