The entire trip was wonderful. A long day but wholly worth it. The day started raining and overcast in Zurich however once started the weather changed almost at once. Even some sun but no more rain. Our guide was named Kid, he was exceptional, humorous, and knowledgeable. Looked after the entire group all day and he took some amazing photos of everyone with their phones. From the bus trip, cog train and cable car, it was a wonderful day. Enjoyed all the facilities at the top of the mountain and in a winter wonderland due to the windy weather as well a light snow. Just magical. Pricy but well worth the money especially if you get a great guide.This was one of our favorite tours of all time! We did the whole package and the sights were absolutely breathtaking (literally and figuratively). Our tour guide Kid was SO much fun and new all the spots to take the best pics! Our driver Amando made us feel so safe going from stop to stop. All ...

Our tour guide was excellent! Really cared for everyone in his group. Took the time to take photos of each group in scenic areas. Very knowledgeable of the route and pointed out when we should get our cameras ready. Magnificent views! Very high altitude though, so be prepared and take things slow if you’re not in great health. Highly recommended!What a great trip. Our guide was fabulous. From making sure everyone got the great photos, to making sure nobody was left behind, there is nothing better to make a trip memorable.

What a great trip. Our guide was fabulous. From making sure everyone got the great photos, to making sure nobody was left behind, there is nothing better to make a trip memorable. The 12 hours went by so quickly because our guide kept us well informed every step of our journey. The photos attached were all taken by our guide. Had a great day. We also did trip to Mt. Titlis on another day and would say that Jungfraujoch is by far the better trip.
