Zermatt Treat - The overall experience was excellent. The walk through Zermatt was beautiful and our guide gave great background on the town. We were lucky to have good weather with excellent views of the Matterhorn. Our guide, Michael, was very knowledgeable of the area and provided great insite. The Glacier Paradise was fantastic and fun experience.

Excellent experience - When advertised as small group I had no idea that meant only 4 people. That made the excursion very enjoyable. Our guide Remi was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout our journey. He had so much personal knowledge and experiences around the Matterhorn and Zermatt he could answer any question. Remi was able to guide us through skipping long lines and pointing out point of interest. He walked us at a comfortable pace understanding that I was not accustomed to the high altitude. Remi also helped me select the best train to take back to my home base in Switzerland

A Paradise indeed - Incredible views, however do not see the need to pay extra for a small group. Your preference, indeed. Definitely recommend seeing the Paradise Glacier.
