Reaching an altitude of 3,883 meters was a breeze, and everything was so well organized...!! I’ll definitely recommend you to my friends and family so they can come visit! The video of the mountains, the scenery, and the wildlife... AMAZING!! I loved how easy it was to ski in June, with everything so well organized and covered!!! Congratulations!! I just think there’s one issue to resolve for those of us coming from other countries: it’s difficult to manage the lift tickets for the ascent and descent, since you have to exchange them at the ticket counters. I think it would be helpful to explain this and reassure customers who aren’t familiar with the process. You could send them via a QR code, and each customer could manage it directly. Maybe another solution is already in the works???? Best regards!!!!

This was a breathtaking experience for us. The glacier paradise and sculptures were beautiful and great photo ops. The Matterhorn is such a beautiful work of nature and the hikes a once in a lifetime experience.

    Naturally beautiful sight - ticket experience open till 4 I arrived at 3 and told I could only do a round trip as I couldn't do the experience because the cable car would be closed! Really really disappointed! A lot to pay for a round cable car ride!
