It was really a nice trip. Enjoyed thoroughly. The guide Babis was very helpful and kept on giving information about the landmarks on the way. I shall certainly recommend this trip to my family and friends.

The trip was amazing, we started around 8:20, the trip to glacier 3000 took about 2 and a half hours, the place was fantastic, our tourguide (Babis) was very friendly and informative, he was explaining to us all kinds of different information about Switzerland (history,culture, the lake, glacier 3000 etc), he offered us water as well, however I would suggest to bring your own as the trip took in total 12 hours, after we finished with glacier 3000 we went to Montreaux where we had seen the sunset in the mountains, 100% recommend

One of the more spectacular views I have seen in the alps. Stay away from the Husky ride though! They let us do only one loop, which took about 1 minute, and the lady in charge was super grumpy, yelling at pretty much everybody. Next to it was a little sledding hill which was super fun for our kids.

The trip to Col du Pillon was unforgettable. If you love the mountains and have time to take a day trip do try this one. The trip was via Key tours in a very comfortable glass top shuttle for 16 passengers. The two hour ride up to the mountain was very scenic and then the cable car ride to the top of Glacier 3000 and the peak walk were amazing. Plus our guide, Agnes was awesome and she even packed a picnic for a break on the snow.

Had a hassle-free, beautiful experience with my 10 year old. We went from Geneva to Col du pillion. From there we took the cable car to the top of Glacier 3000. We found plenty of snow even in June! It will be a memorable trip for me and my child. Thank you!

Amazing trip! The views are breathtakingly beautiful from the drive up to the cable cars, to the top of the bridge and everything in between. It was partly cloudy but the clouds moved enough to get the spectacular views. Montreux is beautiful too. Thomas our guide was brilliant, very warm, friendly and funny. One of the most beautiful places I have ever been to.
