Zermatt or Saas-Fee Switzerland: Where to travel?
How to choose: ZERMATT or SAAS-FEE? This might be tough, because you might not be able to visit both of them, which means, you need to decide for one of the places. Zermatt might be more famous but the choice is not that easy just based on that. There are multiple things that speak for either of the places. The principal mountain at Zermatt is the Matterhorn, which is certainly eyecatching and a landmark of Switzerland, the Allalinhorn is beautiful but obviously not as unique as the Matterhorn. Saas-Fee however has a lot of glaciers, which really makes this village attractive, not only that, there is also an ice pavilion that is larger and a bit nicer than the one in Zermatt. The village of Saas-Fee is not as crowded, which makes the place overall notably cheaper than Zermatt. Due to Saas-Fee being less touristy and smaller, the village feeling in Saas-Fee is definitely better. Zermatt is a hiker’s paradise, from pretty much everywhere you can see the stunning Matterhorn, in Saas-Fee the hiking experience is great too but not as exciting as up in Zermatt with the lakes and the Matterhorn reflections. In general, Zermatt offers the more stunning view points than Saas-Fee. Both places are known for their outstanding hotels, they are equally good, but the ones in Saas-Fee are a bit cheaper overall and not as quickly fully booked as in Zermatt. Both places are great for skiing. Saas-Fee is less busy, more snow sure but does not allow you to cross over to Italy, also the ski resort is notably smaller.

Such a timely video for me! It confirmed my decision to spend 4 days in Saas Fee with my family and just 2 in Zermatt (We were going to do just 1 day, but felt a bit packed. And staying up at the Schwarzsee hotel looked lovely, but eats up half your day to get up there in time. So an extra day there made it a bit more chill. We'd thought of doing the Iglu Dorf, but it's quite pricey and a bit of a walk from the train, which made me nervous with the weather and a young child.). Your videos are so helpful! Loved this one.

Very nice to read this! Thank you! Are you going during Winter? I love both places, fortunately, they are unique for different reasons🥰 I shall google the Schwarzsee hotel. Sounds interesting!
Hi! Djemo, thank you for the lovely but very interesting video! We are going to Zermatt when we get to Switzerland in September, for a few days. But…we will have to put Saas Fee on our list for another trip. Looks awesome!! Marion & Jan 😁🇨🇭❤️👍🏼

Thank you so much Elka for your nice comment. For me the snow and the sunny lush green pictures are also a welcome change, we just have rain nonstop. No weekend with sun so far since late May🙄😢
Nice video! You covered all the unique aspects of these two places well. I would prefer Zermatt. I visited Zermatt during the summer and was fortunate enough to get a clear view of the Matterhorn. I also visited the Klein Matterhorn. I love Zermatt; it's a bit touristy, but I enjoy the vibe. I had a wonderful time staying at the beautiful and quaint "Hotel Bahnhof" right in the center of town, close to the train station. My experience visiting Zermatt was incredible, and I would love to go back. I like Saas-Fee, but I prefer Zermatt.

Hi Abdul. Thanks a lot for your nice comment and sharing your experience in Zermatt. Im glad you enjoyed a lot. I hope that you can visit the Gornergrat next time, its very nice to go up there. Also, I really hope that one day you can see Saas-Fee that has a really beautiful old town🤗

@@DjemoGraphic Thanks a lot! Yes, I missed visiting Gornergrat, and I want to add that to my next visit, and maybe Saas-Fee as well. Looking forward to it.
I'm booked for two nights in Zermatt, on the 14th and 15th of September. Are there any sports bars in town? I've done some searching and have settled on either the Brown Cow Pub, Grizzly's Bar or a place called The North Wall.

Hi. Yes! Thats correct! Actually same for the Aletsch Glacier. I meant, I am eagerly waiting to hike on the glacier itself with crampons and a guide tied to the group by a rope 😊

Hi. For AirBnB i suggest to directly check on the platform itself. I usually book hotels. Foroglio cannot be accessed currently, the bridge is still broken
