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.

On-Line advanced Ticket purchase - 10/10. Check in at Station in Zermatt - 7/10. This was confusiing and time consuming having to scan bar codes on phone to get an actual paper ticket. Why not just use the bar codes as the tickets? Very strange! Actual train rides were on time and trains were spotlessly clean.

The trip on the Gornergrat cogwherl train was wonderful. The scenery was awe inspiring and when we got to the observation area the views were spectacular! Having clean bathrooms was much appreciated. We did not eat but the little shop was busy and had some nice dishes. The actual ticketing was less than acceptable. There was No one there to assist as we had our tickets on my phone and no one directed us to obtain a ticket from the machines. We had to get into the very long lines to find our we could have used our ticket 🎟 in the premineun lane or get one from the machine. A lot of wanted time and energy and almost messed the only train that fit into our schedule.

The train trip up and back were totally worth every minute. However, the ticketing process was slightly confusing as the instructions on the app said photo ID would be required and it was not, which delayed us a bit as we had to stand in line to get to the ticket booth to ask if we were doing it right. All you needed to do was scan the QR code and take the little tickets that came out to use up/down the train line.

The QR code was our ticket all day long so we did not need to queue at ticket offices. It was not overly clear what Jungfrau train and Eiger Express we were to catch back down...it just said "2 hrs later". We were delayed getting up there as the Gondola was late so wasn't sure whether we could stay longer at the top...we didn't so it was a bit rushed. We did get off at Grindelwald on the way back down and walk around for a while before catching the train back to Interlaken. All in all, a really good day.

We enjoyed the train ride to the Jungfraujoch to the full. All in all, it was a very impressive experience. We did the way back a little differently by making a stopover on the Kleine Scheidek. From there, in a beautiful restaurant with a direct view of the Eigerwand, we were able to review our experience.

The information was not clear enough as to which train stop to get off. There are two similar: Grindelwald and Grindelwald terminal. Very confusing. We missed getting of at Terminal and went to Grindelwald where we followed a crowd to a mountain gondola. Only when our tickets didn't work did a worker tell us we were at the wrong mountain! We had to double back. Once we got to the right place we were told out tickets were for a specific time window which we missed and we had to wait longer. This all gave us a shorter time at the venue as return tickets were for specific times too. Instructions new to be MUCH clearer about getting of at the TERMINAL stop and not going to the final Grindelwald stop!!!

The travel experience itself was great, the Jungfraujoch is super well organized with the round trip at the top of the Jungfraujoch. What wasn't good was the booking - I didn't know what to do with the barcodes. I couldn't figure out which barcode was for which person, what the sequence of sections was - I felt pretty left alone with the extremely cryptic confirmation. I didn't see a receipt either. The same tour without the headout would have been much better.

Ease of reserving the tickets and the fair cost. E-mail communication was good and provided valuable information, although not all inclusive and confusing at times. 2 disappointing occurances were: 1. my wife and I missed the gondola ride up to Jungfraujoch via the Eiger Express due to miscommunication as to the exact location of where to catch the Express. Ended up taking the train ride up to Jungfraujoch. 2. I inquired several times via "chat" as to whether my tickets included half fare cards since the term "2 Swiss Half Fare card" was clearly indicated in the e-mails and in the app. Since communication was not clear via "chat," I purchased 2 half fare cards at the train station. So not sure whether I really paid twice for half fare cards.

The three cable car rides up to the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise was nothing short of awesome. Booking through Headout made the ticketing process seamless. No lines, no waiting. And the views along the way and at the top were stunning. It helped that the weather cooperated with blue skies and puffy clouds that came and went around the peak of the Matterhorn. It was fun to watch the skiers and snowboarders as well as the intrepid hikers

If you're in Zermatt this is a must. At first I thought it was a little expensive, but worth every cent and more. You will need long pants and a warm jacket for the top and we were there early September. Take a few hours to go hiking at the second level. The views are spectacular. Show your online ticket at the main ticket office and they give you a physical ticket which is needed to go up and down. I would recommend this to anyone thinking about it.
