This day journey from Basel to Zermatt and Mt. Gornergrat was a dream come true for me. On this trip, I traveled to Zermatt and was captivated by the typical wooden-style houses, mountain peaks, and stunning landscapes. I had the opportunity to tour Zermatt's ancient neighborhood and the Gornergrat mountain, as well as enjoy panoramic views of the Matterhorn. Throughout the trip, my tour guide kept us informed and engaged. Thanks for arranging this trip Thrillophilia.

I had always heard of Matterhorn so, on my honeymoon to Switzerland, I booked this small group tour for me and my partner. The tour included a visit to Zermatt, which was a place out of story books, along with seeing the Gornergrat mountain and the Alps. All thanks to Thrillophilia for organizing such a good trip.
