Very nice day! - Jack was very attentive. In spite of rain we had a great day. We had a nice overview of the area and a tour up Gornergrat.

The Matterhorn and Zermatt private tour, a MUST do activity. Ask for Pete! - What an incredible time we had with Pete during our tour! My wife and I enjoyed Pete's company, he shared many insights about Zermatt. He also has a great sense of humor! He led us on a hike from one of the viewing areas down to a wonderful restaurant, Alphitta, where we listened to live music and enjoyed the hosts' kindness. We had great views of the Matterhorn and the surrounding Alps! What a fabulous day! Thanks for making it so enjoyable, Pete!!

Great experience! - Our guide, Gabriella, was fantastic! She was knowledgeable and flexible. She listened to what we had hoped to see and managed our expectations very well especially due to the weather. We took a trek of the quaint town and then up in the hills to get a higher perspective of the village. The views were magnificent and lush. Finally, we took the train up to Gornegrat to see the various peaks. While the clouds partially covered the Matterhorn, the experience was surreal especially being high up at 10,000 feet, covered in snow. We did get to see the Matterhorn on the way down. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Pete is the best guide - what a wonderful family day! - Such a great option for a family excursion. It's perfect if you have people in your group who don't ski, but you still want them to experience the magic feeling of being on the slopes. Me, my sister, and our parents had Pete as our guide, and he absolutely made the day for us! He made the day so easy and was incredibly attentive to all of our needs. His agenda was much more fun and memorable compared to if we had just booked tickets up to Gornergrat and toured alone. He took us on a breathtaking hike through the snow and to a mountain restaurant for an excellent lunch with a view. One thing to note, the hike is a little steep - it might not be right if you have someone with mobility issues. However, since it's a private tour, I'm sure this part of the agenda could be changed. Thanks to Pete, we also got way better pictures and videos of this awesome excursion, instead of just our usual selfies or incomplete family photos we normally take when travelling. We will never forget this trip! What a great investment into our family memory bank.

Memorable day! This private excursion is a must. - Pete was absolutely amazing! He was so attentive to us. He made sure we didn't miss a thing. His knowledge of the ares is unparalleled. His pre-excurion communication texts helped eliminate the usual pre-excursion jitters. He did everything in his power to ensure we experienced the mountains in every way possible. Our lunch was exquisite. I highly recommend this private excursion. It is worth every penny. Be sure to ask for Pete!

Great Gornergrat!!! - My family and enjoyed a delightful day with Peter, leaving from Zermatt we took the train to Gornergrat. Peter did a great job of tuning into our pace, limitations and interests. We enjoyed the awe inspiring views, took two lovely, short hikes and enjoyed an incredible meal at a locally run restaurant we would never have found on our own. It felt much more like visiting a friend in a place they love than a guided tour.

An amazing experience - We had many memorable experiences with the beautiful scenery and hiking. The most memorable thought was our guide, Petr who is also a professional photographer. He did way more than expected for a family of nine. We would hire him again without a second thought.

An exciting experience provided by a professional organization. - Our guide, Marcello made the sights come alive in words and information as our eyes saw the images. Marcello related both to me, an 80 year old grandfather, and my grandson, a 24 year old outdoor enthusiast. A wonderful experience.
