5.00It was a most memorable trip. The guides were concise and knowledgeable. Jungfraujoch is really awesome! The journey from the beginning until reaching the top was full of anticipation. Even though the weather forecast was supposed to be a clear day, there was cloud cover when we got up there so we weren't able to see much from up top but it was still an amazing experience. I'd still recommend this trip. Don't forget to bring a jacket. It's quite chilly up there even in the summer.

5.00Extremely well organized. We chose the Grindelwald destination The hotel selected was perfect.
Beautiful large rooms with breathtaking views. Grindelwald is a beautiful town. We chose to trotti bike . It was great fun. The tour guide for the trip up to Junfraujoch was very knowledgeable . There was sufficient time allowed to explore on our own. There were 4 in our group, including our adult children. A wonderful trip that all can enjoy . We are hoping to go back.
This was our second trip with Viator I highly recommend this tour group and this particular excursion. We would, however , have wanted to stay in Grindelwald a few more days. One night was not enough in this beautiful town
