5.00From the moment I was picked up in Lake Lucerne this trio tops anything I could have imagined! My love for mountains multiplied on this trip. The scenic drive to Interlaken was breathtaking. Going up the mountains on a series of trains, walking through the Ice Palace was not only chilling but beautiful and then onward to the Sphinx Observatory. The views took my breathe away, literally and figuratively. Every direction. The views will be forever etched in my mind. On the way back down the mountain on the Eiger Express Gondola. Thank you for this!

5.00Our guide did a great job. Really enjoyed the different modes of transportation. The ice castle was awesome and the scenery was breathtaking. Would have liked an additional half hour to spend more time at attractions or shop at the Lindt store. Just felt a bit rushed.
A must-visit attraction...

5.00Dress in layers and drink lots of water. Walk slowly and take lots of pictures. Ask for Hans as a guide.

5.00Fantastic trip. Hans, our guide was excellent. While it was raining and overcast in Lucerne, it was beautiful and clear at Jungfraujoch.
Awesome day trip!

5.00The long day trip was made memorable due to the awesome tour guide (Kid) we had for the day. He ensured that things ran like clockwork, making the most of our day (and ensuring we had time for food/shopping etc) and ensured we had lots of photos taken to remember the day.
Make the Top of Europe the Top of your List!

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience at the Top of Europe! We went to the Top of Europe and could not be happier with the entire experience! Our guide, Kid, was absolutely fantastic — enthusiastic, organized, knowledgeable, and professional. He really made a huge contribution to our experience! He made sure everything went smoothly, shared fascinating information along the way, and was always happy to take photos for everyone and their families. The tour itself is something you wouldn’t want to try on your own — it’s incredibly well coordinated and definitely worth every penny! The day started on a deluxe coach bus to the charming town of Interlaken, full of quaint shops and eateries. From there, we traveled to Lauterbrunnen and caught the train to Jungfraujoch — wow! We explored the inside of a glacier, enjoyed breathtaking views from the Observatory Sphinx, and visited the well-organized facilities that included gift shops, restaurants, and countless photo opportunities. Our family of four had an amazing time and learned so much from Kid. If you plan to go, be sure to bring warm clothes, drinks & snacks, and comfortable walking shoes. A must-do experience that immerses you into the beauty of the Alps and provides a unique opportunity to explore, learn and engage in the region of Switzerland
