Day Trips from Zermatt

Matterhorn helicopter tour - longest scenic flight from Bern over the Swiss Alps

The helicopter flight at the Matterhorn was a fantastic experience.

The helicopter flight at the Matterhorn was a fantastic experience. The view from above of the Matterhorn, the lakes, the glaciers, and the Swiss Alps was breathtaking. The flight was pleasant and entertaining, and everything seemed perfectly organized. Our private group paid $6,696.75 – it was an unforgettable experience. The photo I shared shows a very beautiful experience while flying over this mountain.

Aosta hot air balloon flight over the Alps with breathtaking views

Super breathtaking

Punctual, smiling, organized. What you will find in this experience is more than a hot air balloon flight. You will find an incredible staff that will make you fly at 2000m without fear (ALMOST, because a lot depends on you 😂) Upon returning, a nice breakfast all together and a very lovely flight certificate! Recommended!!!

Day Trip to Zermatt, Matterhorn, Glacier Paradise from Montreux

A wonderful day trip! Babis is a lot of fun!

We joined the tour in Montreux, which I would strongly recommend doing. Apparently it starts very early in Geneva. Our pick up time in Montreux was scheduled for 9:30am, however due to severe traffic that our tour bus encountered prior to our pickup, the schedule for the entire day was shifted and ultimately impacted the amount of free time we had in the beautiful town of Zermatt. I say this as word of warning to future tour customers. Aside from this unfortunate incident, that was of no fault of our wonderful tour guide, Babis, we had an amazing time. Be aware that even from our last pickup point in Montreux, it was still an additional 2 hours in the tour bus before reaching Zermatt. We also had to transfer to smaller electric taxis to get from the van parking to the first of two gondolas. Once in the gondolas, the views become more and more amazing as slowly climbed to the peak. A total ride time of about 20-25 minutes. At the top you can climb up to the viewing tower to get stunning views of the Matterhorn and surrounding vistas. You can also walk down inside the glacier. But bring a warm jacket! Overall it was totally worth it!
