Overview
Zermatt is a village shaped by centuries of tradition. During the summer, it’s a verdant haven with plenty of hiking opportunities; during the winter, it becomes adorned with glistening snow-capped surroundings and refreshing Alpine air.
The village is quaint, with a mixture of antiquated wooden buildings of the past and quaint townhouse-style buildings and chalets. Whether you visit during ski season and enjoy some snowy, picturesque scenery or visit during the summer, there’s plenty of history and beauty to be in awe of.
During the visit to the astonishing Matterhorn Glacier, you’ll get to take a ride on the highest gondola in the Alps for 40 minutes and experience bird's eye views of a mountain range that's so stunning your eyes will light up in wonder. You will also spend time at the magical Glacier Palace with a complimentary cinema experience, dining opportunities, and views worth dreaming of!

Itinerary
Bern
Your guide will meet you at the Bern Train Station , before whisking you away to Zermatt.
2 hoursZermatt
During your time in Zermatt Village, your guide will escort you from the train station and throughout the village, unveiling the history of the buildings and the village’s past. The chapel’s steeple adds to the small and charming village feel, and you’ll be completely and utterly charmed throughout your exploration. Running through Zermatt is the pure and ice-cold river Matta Vispa, which provides an atmospheric trickling water sound.
During your tour, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a local raclette or fondue lunch, immersing yourself in Swiss culture by indulging in a heartwarming local delicacy. Seize plenty of opportunities to take photographs, like in front of the monument to the mountain guides. The air will be crisp and thin, and the atmosphere is perfect to go wandering off, taking in the beauty of the place, and getting lost in wistful thought.
