“Great facilities- friendly staff . We got the cog wheel train from Vitznau to the Kaltbad and then hiked up to the Rigi Klum. We had lunch there and then hiked back to the KaltbadSpa. It was so relaxing after the hi out .”

“It was an awesome team event. Raquel guided us safely, skillfully, and with a lot of heart through the gorge. Courage pays off! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We experienced very attentive, friendly, and approachable staff on the cable car and in the restaurant. We are extremely grateful for that and would be proud of Switzerland if this were the standard. The two days in Mürren with Schilthorn were more than worth the money in every way.”
“VERY GOOD”
