Great tour close to the Matterhorn with a visit to glacier caves and friendly guide Helmut. It was our first time hiking with snowshoes, so we thought it was important to go with a guide to also get a sense of what might be dangerous (like glacier crevasses that aren't visible). Now we have a great idea for unguided tours in the future. Thanks for the wonderful experience!
