Glacier 3000 - Up to 10% discount, Questions

Emilio_rofl

Hello,
I was about to buy the tickets with a discount to the Glacier 3000
But I wanted to ask if anyone knows if the ticket includes the ticket of transport AND the ticket to get to the Glacier 3000 attractions.
To make sure before I make any purchases

Thank you.

Hello Emilio_rofl

This offer doesn’t include the transport from other places in Switzerland to the valley station of the cable car, you need another ticket:

Our offer for you.

10% reduction on the ascent and descent in the Col du Pillon–Scex Rouge cable car, including access to the Peak Walk by Tissot, the Ice Express chairlift, the Fun Park & the Glacier Walk.

Offer valid from 1 June 2024 to 31 May 2025.

You can benefit from the discount with any ticket, for example an ordinary public transport ticket, Day Pass, supersaver ticket, as well as a Regional Travelcard, Half Fare Travelcard Card or GA Travelcard.

Kind Regards
Danhiel

Hello Emilio_rofl

In my (personal) opinion, Glacier3000 is not worth a visit for a first timer to Switzerland.
There are indeed other mountain excursions which are less costly and do offer a better experience. Other community users may think differently.

However, we never recommend purchasing mountain excursion tickets in advance. The weather in Switzerlabd is not predictable for more than two days out.
True, you may save a few Swiss francs by purchasing early, but what if the weather is not your friend on that day and you will end up in the clouds? It will be the most expensive experience to see nothing.

If we had known your entire itinerary, we could have made other suggestions.

Kind regards,
Roland

Thanks Danhiel
What I don’t quite get is that, let’s say that I’m in Montreux and I buy this ticket with a 10% discount, so then my ticket is the following:

This ticket includes:
The transport to the Col-du-Pillon, Glacier 3000 and the entrance to Glacier 3000 and Peak Walk, the Ice Express chairlift, the Fun Park & the Glacier Walk right?
I’m sorry I want to be 100% sure before I do anything

Thanks for your patience

Sorry, I don’t understand why only an outward journey is included. I will try tomorrow to buy a ticket or perhaps someone else could help you.

Thanks @RolandP for your remark.

Emilio_rofl Please note that you chose prices with the Half Fare Travelcard, do you have this card?

In your case it is better to buy a Mobilis Day Pass from Montreux to Col-du-Pillon, Glacier 3000 via Aigle separately, in the SBB Mobile App, on sbb.ch or on vending machines the day of departure. Choose “Ticket available” when buying the Glacier 3000 ticket. With a Mobilis Day Pass you must not select a timetable for the return trip in advance, you don’t know how long you will stay at the summit. The price will be the same, because the discount of 10% applies only for the cable car.
