The experience itself was amazing. The customer service where we had to collect tickets was appalling, the lady was so rude and unfriendly. I'm so glad our excitement did not allow her attitude to dampen our excitedness. Also, the ice cave we feel had a damp/mould issue? Something was not right in there we believe as we came out unusually out of breath just walking up the short ramp to the elevator as we also witnessed other visitors in the same position.

We had a perfect weather. Sunny and calm. The cable car took us up to 3883 m where the view of the surrounding mountains and glaciers is stunning. Also, the glacier tunnel and ice sculptures are very interesting and beautiful. It was easy to pick up the tickets from the cable car station.

I purchased two priority tickets for the Matterhorn experience, these are more expensive than the standard tickets and usually grant you priority boarding to avoid the queues and guarantee a seat. When we arrived the priority boarding was closed and after speaking to the team there it appears it had been for several weeks prior. I reached out to Headout hoping to be reimbursed for the extra priority price we paid and I also attached a photo of the signage showing that access temporarily closed. Over a week later and I'm still awaiting a response. The only experience is great, incredible views but the train was very congested in early December with many people standing. Early in the season so the restaurants weren't all open at the top.

It met my expectations, incomparable experience. It is also the only place I found where they sell the tickets as well as buying them physically.

The weather cleared just for that day, not enough to see Matterhorn but the it was fantastic. We are from northern Australia so to stand in a snowfall and go into a ice cave under a glacier, just out standing memories.
