A cogwheel line out of Zermatt that climbs to 3,089 metres facing the Matterhorn and the Gorner glacier. These 12 cover the plain return ticket, the guided versions and the walk-down options, with prices — and the note that the view is a weather lottery like every summit here.

Small-group day trip from Zürich to Zermatt, car-free village walk, Matterhorn photo stops, and a summit ride on the Gornergrat Railway.

“The instructions on the meeting place was insufficient. We thought that since we cannot find the meeting place, we can no longer join the tour and became very disappointed. While our guide Martin did his best to locate us, we could have avoided such hassle if instructions was accurate.”

Basel to Zermatt by rail with a guided Village stroll and a priority ride up the Gornergrat Bahn for high-altitude Matterhorn views.

“Our guide Jonas made the day. While we were initially upset that we were not going to be able to take the trip that we had anticipated, he discussed our options with us and came up with something much better! We are public transport neophytes; Jonas handled all logistics that got us from Basal to Grindewald with no issues. Grindewald was more than I expected, a perfect day in the mountains, a perfect last day in Switzerland.”

Train from Basel to Zermatt and up to Gornergrat on a cogwheel ride for Matterhorn glacier views, plus a guided car-free village walk.

“Having a guide to keep us on train schedules and connections for a quick day trip to Zermatt was key to a successful trip. was very knowledgeable with the surroundings and history of groups in Switzerland. Never a dull moment with the stories and awesome scenery along the way. Was very fortunate to have blue skies in January and provided wonderful pictures and memories to last a lifetime.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 11 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $754

Small-group Zermatt and Gornergrat day trip from Bern with train and cogwheel rides, expert guide, priority boarding, and Matterhorn views.

“Our tour guide Enzo was so knowledgeable and interesting. We learned alot about Zermatt, the Matterhorn, the Alpine glaciers as well as Switzerland in general. He was considerate, interacting with everyone in a friendly playful manner. And it goes without saying that the scenery was amazing. An experience that needs to be in person because pictures do not do it justice. The icing on the cake was the gorgeous weather we had for the day of the tour. A wonderful day all round.”

Small-group Bern to Zermatt day trip with guided village walk and a high cogwheel ride to Gornergrat summit views of Matterhorn.

“Good trip with beautiful scenery but our tour guide was more of a chaperone rather than a guide. He led us in the right direction but didn’t offer much information about where we were or what we were doing. He didn’t talk much and when he did we couldn’t understand him.”
