Excellent full day trip. Small group experience. Our local tour guide, Ueli, was excellent. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and pleasant. He kept us on schedule without stress. There is a lot to try to fit in in one day. More time in Zermatt would have been nice, but it's already a full long day. There is plenty of time at the Matterhorn to see everything there, including the little chapel, and the museum/interactive indoor experience. Seeing the Matterhorn was on my bucket list and this was a well organized way to do it in one day from Zurich. Recommend this tour.

The Matterhorn is a sight to behold. There is a sense of awe and wonder as you gaze upon it. We were lucky to have a sunny day to see it in all its magnificence. We went in December and at the end of the day, we walked thru Zermatt. It was like being in a Hallmark Christmas movie with the charming village, twinkling lights, and lightly falling snow. Enzo was an awesome guide. He was educational and kind. He helped get a chair for my elderly father who was not able to travel up to the viewing platform at the top of the Gornegrat. He offered to stay with him at the terrace level and encouraged me to go to see Matterhorn from the platform. At the end of the trip he graciously helped navigate us away from the very confusing Zürich HB to the street our hotel was located. 10/10 would go again with Enzo.

Tour was a complete bust. Viator notified us 3 days prior to the trip that they were cancelling (as they hadn’t filled the trip to their financial satisfaction). We rebooked the complete train trips and gondola on our own (without the “guided” tour narrative) for $800 savings (vs their charge of $1400 for 2 people). While they did fully refund the $1400, I’d never recommend depending on this tour to anyone. Very disappointing.
