★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 899 reviews · from $121

Ride to Matterhorn Glacier Paradise for glacier views, an ice palace, and Europe’s highest mountain station at 3,883 meters.

“We had a great time! The views were spectacular. We were thankful that when we went to exchange our tickets for the day we planned to go up that the tickets were good for 10 days because it was extremely cloudy and we wouldn't have been able to see anything. We decided to wait a day and it was perfect!”

Ride the Gornergrat Bahn from Zermatt to 3,100 meters for Matterhorn views, glacier scenery, alpine walks, and a year-round summit platform.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 290 reviews · 3 to 5 hours (approx.) · from $151

Ride Mt Titlis from Engelberg, cross Europe's highest suspension bridge, explore the glacier cave, and fly over snowfields on the Ice Flyer.

“We did this trip in September 2024. It is a self-managed trip and advice to all travellers to get there early to avoid the crowds. For us, Ice flyer was the best and the cliff walk was very exciting. We enjoyed the trip very much and were lucky enough to experience everything just before the weather got really bad. Overall it was a fantastic experience.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 195 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $56

Ride to Glacier 3000 from Les Diablerets, cross the Peak Walk, walk on the glacier, and enjoy Alpine views from 3,000 meters.

“Great views from the very top, though best to plan your trip on a sunny day. We could not see the matterhorn due to clouds. Ignore the Viator 9am stated start time. You can show up whenever you want! Also, there was no need to buy tix in advance. If you have the half price Swiss train pass, don’t get your tix on Viator. Buy direct and save 50 pct with the pass. I wish I knew!”
