Pricey lift to the Matterhorn 112 CHF each gets you roundtrip all the way to the top and back.read more

The main reason I am giving this a three star rating is because of the exorbitant price. The ride…read moreup to the top is less than an hour, probably 40 to 45 minutes max and yet it's CHF 114 per person round trip. If they had had a live cam on their website or near the ticket office showing us that it was completely socked in the top we would not have gone. Basically when we got off of the train, which is an interesting ride in it of itself due to the steep elevation, but it was pea soup and you were lucky if you could see 100 yards in front of you max. The Matterhorn was totally not visible. There's not much to do at the top besides walk around the observation center, walk up to the hotel and go to the souvenir shop. There is a self-service café but not much else there if you are not staying at the hotel. Without views towards the surrounding mountains it's a rather isolated and less than stunning place. We decided to walk down to the second to the last station from the top in order to get a little exercise and hoping that maybe the mountain would come out on our way down. The footing was very rough and it was quite steep at the top with lots of loose gravel. We don't recommend this for people who are not fit enough to handle that type of terrain. There was a litter like field to the entire place as virtually no vegetation can grow at that elevation. We took the train back down to stations to the second to the last station, the first station on the way up, and walked our way down to town from there. That trail was also steep but completely different as it was within a forest and had a soft bed of Pineneedles and tree roots on the trail instead of loose gravel and sharp rocks as it had on the top.

We took the glacier express from Zermatt to St Moritz and it was a great experience. We got lunch…read morearound 11:30-12 when they started lunch service and were able to relax the rest of the time. Warning that it gets very hot in the train on sunny days so bring sunglasses and layers. Also online it says that you are not allowed to take skis onboard but we were able to take both of our ski bags with no issue, there was even a rack to put them in. Just make sure to be one of the first onboard to ensure space. To note on the above too we actually tried to ship our skis to St Moritz via SBB but the reps for SBB refused to mail them once they found out we were only doing that because the glacier express website said not to bring them and they told us they've never seen skis get denied boarding from Zermatt.

Just after inquiring at the Hotel about what a ride should cost we find out that we have taken for a serious ride. Oh well never ever for us again Taxi Schaller.

Seems all very shady, depending who is giving you a ride the price seem to be vastly different…read more Then I tried to complain to their office and the lady just hanged up the phone, great business. I guess in a tourist town like Zermatt they figure they can do what ever they want. Best to walk or use the hotel shuttle. I suggest the tourist office should clamp down on Schaller, bad for business.

Zermatt isn't really a big enough place to need taxis. I used one to get to the youth hostel as I…read morewasn't sure where it was and had a rucksack with me. Zermatt's streets are narrow and crowded with pedestrians near the centre. The little electric taxis need a lot of power for the hills in the upper reaches and this means on the level parts they can move at some pretty amazing speeds. I have rarely been as scared as I was in a Bolero Taxi. As to price, if I'd known I could walk it in five minutes I would have. Very expensive!
