The tour guides were awesome! Fun and informative, patient and kind! The guides made me feel comfortable asking questions and made sure you got what you were looking to get out of the adventure. The picnic they brought was fabulous and they were happy to see your excitement in the adventure.

Great trip

Joy_C, Jun 2022

The cable car experience, the alpine coaster, the time to explore in Glacier 3000. It was not so crowded so i had time to explore most.

Fantastic place - some hiccups with logistics

Ivan_S, Sep 2019

We were very lucky with a weather! Nice and sunny (just after nasty wind and rain on the day before). That made our experience outstanding as everything on top was covered with fresh white snow. Made a stop in the vinery area on the way to Col du Pillon and Montreux on the way back. When you order please make sure that you are booked for the lift up as otherwise it would be surprise ad-hoc costs upon arrival to the place...

Good morning, Thank your for your review. On the website, you have 3 clear options: only bus ( because some people wants to stay in the village, have special discount on the cable car with their swisspass ), the option including the cable car and the gold option including the roller coaster and the snow bus. You got lucky with the weather so we are gld you enjoyed the views. We wish you a nice holiday.

Is a must to do

Marco_J, Sep 2019

First, i have to thanks Tom for the guidelines and the helpful information. You have a great view of the mountains and the valley when you are in the peak. The glasier is huge, even in summer you can find enough snow to play. Montreux is a pretty place to stay for a while and enjoy a coffee in the evening.

Response from Host, Oct 2019

Good morning, Thank you very much for your review. We are happy you enjoyed the sites, your message will be pass to Tom. This tour gives a unique experience on the Swiss akos with an incredible view. Montreux is also a must see around Geneva lake, We wish you a nice holiday!

Lovely day

Mike C, Jun 2019

We had a lovely time. Thomas our driver was so nice and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Unfortunately, the weather was not good and we had a white out at the top for most of the time. Still loved it.

Response from Host, Jun 2019

Good morning, We would like to thank you very much for your review. Your message will be forwarded to Tom. Mountain trip is really a lottery because of the weather but it's still an experience to live. Have a nice holiday!

La cima del mundo 🌎

Un lugar espectacular 👌 vale la pena visitar este hermoso 💚 lugar. Volvemos en cuanto sea invierno para ver otro tipo de espectáculo y siempre que pueda regresaré.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Buenas tardes Suiza es una maravilla, disfrutar de este pais enclavado en Los Alpes es un privilegio. Glacier 3000 es como viajar a otro mundo. Esperamos con ansias que llegue el invierno y volverlos a tener con nosotros. Muchas gracias por todo.

Wunderschöner Ausflug

Patrik, Jul 2020

Der ganze Ausflug war einmalig und wunderschön. Wir hatten tolles Wetter und der Guide hat uns gute Tipps gegeben. Die Aussicht vom Glacier 3000 ist spektakulär. Wir wurden auch pünktlich am vereinbarten Ort abgeholt. Unser Guide war sehr freundlich, lustig und wir fühlten uns sehr wohl. Diese ganze Tour können wir nur empfehlen.
