Beautiful scenery- amazing gondola ride. The observation deck on top is a must do. The glacier trip was interesting but the views take the prize
Randy_M, Aug 2025
Incredible views, however do not see the need to pay extra for a small group. Your preference, indeed. Definitely recommend seeing the Paradise Glacier.

your opinion.
without a tourguide, you don't get all the insigt information or someone that answers your questions about Switzerland.

No adjectives or photos can accurately describe this experience. The scenery is exquisite and gondola ride to the top exciting. Wear warm cloths! Remy, our guide was wonderful! There were only 4 in our group so we got lots of information and could ask questions.
Michael_C, Jul 2025
Our guide was knowledgeable and very experienced on the mountains and we learned so much. Views spectacular and beautiful. Dress warm! A real adventure to see and learn about the cable car and make the trip to Klein Matterhorn and the ice caves. Amazing!

This tour is wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about our guide, Tony, and the views of the Matterhorn are amazing! The glacier is spectacular, too.

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.

good way to discover this alpine peak. gondola ride is stunning and tourguide gave us some information about the area. at the top you can join the guide for a round tour and it was great to have someone who was leading us on this location. Do recommend if you want to go to Glacier Paradise.

we had to change travel date due to the weather at Zermatt. Tour was great to get to this high alpine area. Tourguide was knowledgeable and gave us a great overview about the surrounding area.

Fabulous views! Ticketing was simple and quick. Highly recommend this excursion. You’re at your own pace and can move as fast or slow as you choose.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately the cableway company stopped all cooperation with tour agents - this is why we are no longer allowed to sell this destination. But we have other options which are much better than the Glacier Paradise.
Howard_H, Jun 2024
The trip to the Matterhorn was magnificent. However, it started off bad. When I presented my voucher at the redemption point, the worker told me “you have been scammed, I see it all the time” I did find my correct voucher and all was well. She was going to gladly selll me another ticket for $250. Now who is the scammer?
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you for your feedback. We will discuss this with the Matterhorn Bergbahn. Of course, it is not acceptable that their employees to make such statements if our guests are arriving with a valid voucher.
PAIGE_P, Jun 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed our cable car trip to Glacier paradise. We had great views on all 3 gondolas. Each went to a certain level during the ascent. It was cloudy once on top but the Ice Palace was fantastic. Loved the gorgeous ice sculptures.

Thank you for the feedback.

Absolutely incredible scenery. Great time. The views were outstanding. It is very high altitude so a few people were a bit short of breath and other were dizzy for a few minutes with the altitude. .
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Thank you sharing your experience
Ingrid_M, Dec 2023
It was lovely to take the cableway to Matterhorn and enjoy the views. The viewpoint is fantastic too, windy but definitely worth enjoying. The ice cave was interesting too. My least favorito part was the cinema. The room was cold with not so much light.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
thank you for your review. Don't expect strong heated rooms on 3400m altitude (you are in the alps) or bright lights in a cinema.
