A wonderful experience and incredible scenery.

Published on Jan, 2025

There was a great mix of help from the guide and then your own free time. Definitely take the option of going to Mt First - the scenery is incredible. If you want to do the flyer make sure you pre-book as it was sold out.

Once in a lifetime experience on a Swiss Alp.

Published on Dec, 2024

The cable car to First was the highlight with many activities available one there, and the views were magnificent.

Great tour!

Published on Dec, 2024

Highly recommend this experience. I took the partially guided tour. This allowed me enough time on my own to explore the activities on the mountain that I wanted to do.

Very happy with the tour....

Published on Dec, 2024
