Absolutely fantastic, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The ride up to Gornergrat offers great views of Zermatt and the Matterhorn every single meter of the way. Once at the top, you can enjoy views of numerous glaciers and 28 four-thousanders. An unforgettable experience.

The railway is a technical masterpiece. Hats off to the people who made it possible years ago!!!! The view of the Matterhorn and the surrounding mountain giants was wow! The viewing platform, the dining facilities, and the exhibition are very well designed. Despite good organization when boarding and exiting the train, there was some jostling. There were simply too many people!

An exceptional value and experience. I travel in an out of several cities, and needed nothinmore than my Pass. It's just the piece of mind it offers instead of continually buying tickets and being limited by your schedule or appointments.

We went early, queued before it opened & had the best views without the crowds - absolutely stunning! Wonderful seeing all the different peaks from up there along with climbers heading further up. I don't necessarily agree with the need to ski in August but some were being pulled up (& down!) by snow mobiles - spoilt the tranquility really. The ice caves were something else, wow! The sculptures were amazing! Worth every penny (even the 2chf to use the loo, which you get back if you buy anything even a coffee)

We booked a tour because we were afraid that it would be difficult to navigate on our own. The tour was cancelled, so we bought the cable car tickets online. How fortunate for us that the tour was cancelled! The cable car was so easy to use, and we saved a lot of money by booking ourselves. We were able to spend the day at our leisure, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I would highly recommend booking this on your trip to Zermatt.
