Never thought hiking in the snow would be this much fun but the small hike is actually great. If you like skiing, definitely a must visit and I enjoyed it a lot. Even if the cable ride is amazing and the glacier Palace is a nice experience. Thank you Thrillophilia for such a great deal.

I will never forget the cable car ride that me and my parents had on this trip to the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise. We reached right on the summit, and could see more than 10 glaciers from here, along with all of the alpine mountains. All thanks to Thrillophilia for arranging this package really nicely and making our trip memorable.

Our trip to the Glacier was absolutely one of a kind. We took the cable car ride up the peak, and spent a few hours exploring the attractions at the top. I especially enjoyed the ice palace with all of the handcrafted ice sculptures. Our ticket from Thrillophilia also included a return trip back on the cable car.

The best way to enjoy the view of Zermatt is on a cable car ride. Ethereal experience. I am grateful to thrillophilia for recommending this amazing journey. Our tour guide was also very good and gave us great insights into the village history.
