Our journey will start by hopping on the iconic Gornergrat cogwheel train to Gornergrat ridge. During this 45min trip, you will be able to enjoy the beautiful view offered by the 4000m peak around Zermatt including the majestic Matterhorn. Once at the summit, an easy short loop will bring you to breathtaking views of the valley, mountains and glacier surrounding the Gornergrat ridge.

Beautiful day to the Matterhorn - Beautiful day with our guide Gioia ; excellent pictures of the Matterhorn; short hike as there was still snow on some of the trails. Really lovely lunch.

Great trip, terrible booking experience - We had Gioia as our guide for the tour, everything went fine during the trip. We had a very nice walk, enjoyed amazing views and our guide shared with us interesting information throughout the entire trip. However, the booking experience was terrible, as it didn't mention the additional costs involved. The tour on the website didn't specify anything about the Gornergrat train ticket needed for this trip and when we specifically wrote to support, asking for this information, we were told that the ticket is included in the final price for 6 people, as shown on the website ($582). So we ended up paying an additional 132 CHF per person, for the train ticket, in the morning, after meeting our guide and finding out that the train ticket is in fact not included. This information has been updated on the website since then, but still, for us it was a very disappointing experience since we clearly asked about this before booking and paying for this trip. Moreover, even after paying the reservation, in the ticket we got, it again didn't mention this, in the "not included" section for this tour.
