Looks like a fun time. Thank you.
Really liked this video😍😍😍. Thanks for sharing!
We love your videos, and we can barely wait to arrive, thank you both so so much for bringing us along. The baby in the pool was ( is) priceless, and the sunrise on the Matterhorn is something we will enjoy soon. Jim

I love watching these videos. It's both a vlog which is fun to watch, while giving helpful information also.
Wow amazing landscapes Heaven on earth ❤️😍

Beautiful
very good, thanks. we were there in April skiing, best week of the whole season by luck - going back in December
My wife and myself love your vlogs. We’re planning our trip to Switzerland for the first time, thank you for the great content.
Wow - great video - Thank you!
We were there in August 2000, amazing how Rifflealp has evolved from a hotel to a resort. I got great sunrise photos from the room we had in the hotel 🌄 Definitely time to get back there again and enjoy the pools 🌊with a view
Wow !❤
Hust came back a week a go from Switzerland and spend 3 nights in Zermat. Absolutely amazing experience ❤ hopfully will go back again. Thanks for sharing 🌹
Perfect! I will be there in three weeks and the Matterhorn is by far the thing in Switzerland I am most looking forward to. I wont have much time as I am doing it as a day trip from Bern. Brilliant video!
Best regards from México, my family and I, first God, we are going to visit zermant next october.
Thanks a lot for your information.
Congratulations on the baby!! Had no idea. I love your videos and also loved the trip to Zermatt this past April.
we don't show her much in videos but shes a happy little 15th month old girl who loves to travel with us!
What a timing for the video....I'm coming tomorrow for a week and have planned a full day in Zermatt
Let me know your experience. I might plan in Easter holiday.
I know it won't define the Glaciers as much in the winter.....but we are so excited About coming during Christmas. Thanks so much for the videos!😍🏔🚃🚄
Very nice & great insight. Thanks
Hi, I will be at zermatt in early December. Any advice / what to look out for?
Thanks for all the sharing in your videos.
We like your videos!❤ We are going to Zermatt in middle of October and just found that a couple of trails we liked to hike will be closed by the time. We plan to take Matterhorn Glacier paradise in the morning. Any hiking suggestions after that?
نزهه جميلة جدآ ✔️🦜🌺
Love watching your videos, especially as we are visiting Switzerland in 2024. If I can make a suggestion, please use a wireless mic, to save all the wind noise and other nuisance sounds. it takes the shine off the production.
Would you recommend the Peak Pass for staying in Zermatt for 2-3 days, or just buying the tickets when there for Gornergrat/Matterhorn Glacier Paradise individually in case of bad weather?
Hi ,great video as usual. We are going in three weeks time. We are going on the Gornegrat,am i right in saying we need TWO trains to get to Glacier Paradise??
Wonderful video (as usual). We've been to Zermatt twice, but this convinced us to go for a third trip, but without the snow. What would be a good post peak season time?
October is wonderful - fewer crowds and gorgeous foliage!
Was in Zermatt about the same time as this filming. Gornergrat and the 360 view worth costs and hike, the high to the lake at about 14:34 is not difficult however also not a smooth, sculpted trail either, careful of your footing.
We haven’t seen mammots during our hike🙈 it would be nice if we saw it too😅
Would love to do all these things but it’s well outside my budget. Heading here for the first time late April, but it will just be to hopefully see the Matterhorn and enjoy the area as much as the weather will allow.
I heard we can use The peak2peak if we're gonna go Glacier Paradise and Gornergrat at same day (usually available in June-August), how do we combine half fare card with that?
I love your video. Do you think the Peak Pass a good value for 2 days visit in Zermatt?
Hi! I would say it depends on your whole itinerary, if you're already buying a half fare card or a Swiss travel pass, maybe not necessary. But in general it is a good value for just Zermatt!
I was actually there last year. 😅
Thank you for providing some tips on the video. It would be much more helpful if you can share the maps also how the places are located so we can get an idea where everything is. The videos are great in themselves, so good work there. What camera are you using as the resolution is very good?
What is the price to fo to Matterhorn glacier, is it included in Swiss day pass or any other pass.
And which is base station
Are you planning to try the new Alpine Crossing into Italy?
I have watched almost all your videos. Very informative. Good job guys. I will be doing a day trip to Zermatt from Interlaken in October. Hope to have enough time to hike to Riffelberg from Gornergrat and do another hike to be emersed in autumn color. Would you be able to suggest a short hike for this. Thanks again guys.
I was just in Zermatt about two weeks ago! It was absolutely beautiful and the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise to the Klein Matterhorn was stunning. The only negative was the lady in Zermatt who sneezed on my wife and me and gave us COVID lol.
Perhaps she didn't give you covid, you just want someone to blame. It's like people who had a coffee several hours or more before bed and then blame the coffee for not being able to sleep well, it is frivolous finger pointing.
@@paulciaro158 ok Paul 🤣😭 … anyways, point was Zermatt and the Matterhorn are amazing and it’s one of my favorite places I’ve ever been to. I recommend it to whomever is considering going to Switzerland.
@@LionRoarGamerSorry to hear you had COVID,my god you make a statement and some people take it literally and make a massive deal about it🤷
Would be nice if you included price if the food
Is Zermatt to Gornergrat train ticket included in Swiss Pass or do I need to book the ticket separately? Please reply.
Hello good day. I'm planning to travel this October to Zermatt coming from geneva airport, my plan is to stay 3 days in zermatt. How much roughly would it cost to do alll the activities you've shown in this vlog. Thanks very much
Hi, your videos are really helpful. I just want to ask how's the weather like in the last week of May to early June? Because I'm traveling to Switzerland by those times. What are the things/ clothes I need to pack? Your reply means a lot. Thank you so much.
Nice. Is it good to visit in April?
Would booking the Glacier Paradise in person or in advance be cheaper? and which site? I am heading over in October, crossed fingers that the weather will be good 🤞 Thank you!!
It sells out so you’ll need to put it in advance directly on their websote
@@TheTravelingSwissgoing in July for 2 nights. Are you saying we should buy the tickets for Mannehorm and Gornergrat before we travel? Or can we buy it when we get there?
We won’t know the weather that’s why I’m asking.
The train tickets we don’t have to buy in advance correct?
what is the restaurant near the Sunnega that you recommended?
Chez Vrony
Is it possible to find black nose sheep in November?
You mentioned the gornergrat & glacier paradise can be done easily because of connecting stations. In that case, could sunnegga/walli playground, lake riffelsee/rotenboden, and glacier paradise all be done with connecting stations?
Very nice video, thanks for sharing my friend 5:37
Hi there, is it possible to do Gornergrat train ride in the morning and heading to matterhorn glacier paradise by gondola in the afternoon?
Is the Matterhorn glacier trail open and safe to walk in mid june ? Thanks
How many time do you need to do the peak2peak?
When you got off at Rottenboden how long did you have there before the next train came to take you to the top.?
You have trains every 24 minutes!
@@mihaelalacko7389 Thank you 👍
Oh hey, i clicked on the link for the Riffelalp Resort and it took me to a hotel in Laussane?
Oh no! Thanks for pointing that out I’ll update it :) this is the correct link: riffelalp.com
@@TheTravelingSwiss great - it works now, thanks!
Is end of May a good time to visit Zermatt ? Or will it be too cold and snowed out? Also is the train ride from Interlaken to Zermatt considered scenic ?
Where did you leave your luggage? We are visiting in the summer for a 7-day trip, but we will have three large bags as we are traveling to another country from there. I'm not sure how to handle these pieces of luggage across different train rides?
Was hoping you'd mention something about cars
No cars in zermatt other than the electric taxis that run there. If you’re driving you’ll need to park in Täsch and take the shuttle train to zermatt
can we do a zermatt one day trip from interlaken and return by night?
You can do it. Leave Interlaken early. It’s around a 2 hour drive.
hey, what month was this?
May i ask how much is per night in Riffelalp Resort?
Rooms start at around 350 or so a night and go up from there depending on the room type / view and the time of year etc
@@TheTravelingSwiss thank you
Hi can you help us..Can we take our 10mo old baby to the glacier peaks like glacier 3000?
I would check with your pediatrician, we were advised not to take our daughter over 2,000m until she was 1 year old
In which month of the year was this video recorded?
There is no snow on the Gornergrat!
Late July!
@@TheTravelingSwiss I will go to Gronergrat in the next March. Do you think I will see snow on the Gornergrat?
TOP OF EUROPE IS NOT THERE
And its definately not the jungfraujoch lol
