Once in a lifetime view

The train ride from Basel was fun and the scenery fantastic. The Matterhorn was everything and more than I thought it would be. Our guide, Fehsal, was the best guide we have ever had. I would not hesitate doing this excursion again; it was the best ever.
We loved it all. Seeing...

Guidance but no entertainment

Our guide was efficient and kind, but not very informative. There was no ongoing patter about history or interesting things we saw. He did point out some highlights, but was far from chatty as most guides we’ve had elsewhere.
Response from Host , Aug 2021
Hi Lynn
Meeting of people is sometimes a bit tricky and sometimes it fits, or it doesn't. Sympathy is a big factor, guests' expectations and personal mood are sometimes difficult to find out. However, thank you for the feedback. Is there anything else that you can write about the tour ?(a review is to rate the tour overall - not just the guide)
Thank you.

Amazing experience on the top of the world. Eric (the Guide) did a fantastic logistics job which meant that we could do a return trip from Basel to Zermatt and spend quality time at the viewing point - all in the same day. The return journey went like clockwork.

We had such a wonderful time on our full day in Zermatt & the Matterhorn area! As an added bonus, there was a fun group of Swiss singers with their accordion on the train ride, and we got a authentic concert! Genie, our guide, was friendly & fun with lots of interesting information. She knew her stuff! I would recommend this tour - well worth the time & money!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
