The tour itself and the scenery you see is just incredible.
Review by: Janine K, May 2018
It was about 3 hours from Lucerne. One thing to be wary of is the weather if you book the tour ahead of time. You may want to wait until the last minute to book, as there isn't much to see when there are clouds engulfing the top. While the cost of the tour is pricey, it is worth having someone who knows the train schedules, has a reserved car for you on the train especially important in busier months and can lead you around. Our tour guide didn't provide much in the way of 'touring' during the ride back and forth nor while at the top. She was friendly and educated on the things asked, just not proactive in providing information. Bus ride was very bumpy and side to side - I don't know if that was due to the drivers driving capabilities or the intense switchbacks up the mountain!!!! Even in early May, it is BUSY!!!! Having a guide to keep us straight was such a relief. Grab yourself some Swiss Alps whisky to enjoy at home. One of the staff recommended a whisky liqueur as well. And apparently this is the mountain where Bollywood movies film if there are any mountain or snow scenes!!!

Our tour guide, Boy, was wonderful. There are a lot of connections and you definitely need someone to guide you. The scenery and information we received made the trip even more than we expected. My husband got ill from the thin air, and our guide made sure he was well taken care of.

The tour itself was great. We all felt bad that we left a woman in Interlaken, but also had to respect Kid our tour guide for leaving her. He went to each person to confirm that they knew when the bus was leaving, so she had no excuse. And she never did catch up to the tour. The view from Jungfraujoch was amazing, at least when we first arrived. The weather started to change about an hour later, so we were really glad to have arrived when we did. The price of the tour seems a little expensive, but everything in Switzerland is expensive. And given the cost of the train tickets, it's almost a bargain.

The Asian maybe Thai guide is impolite, unprofessonial, uncultured...

This tour was a great way to see a snapshot of Lauterbrunnen and Jungfraujoch. Unfortunately, we didn't have great weather as it rained/snowed the whole time limiting visibility of the sights. The weather improved in the following days. We booked this tour in advance to fit in with our itinerary and to avoid it selling out. If I were to do it again, I think that I would wait and book closer to the date to check the weather forecast. Nonetheless, it was a great day out.

Tour guide Raymond is excellent! He did a very good explanation of Lucerne city during the journey there, explaining the beautiful sights. And constantly checked in with everyone to see whether we're ok. Tour is very comprehensive, and transport is well organized. Highly recommend!

One of the best tours my wife and I have taken, definitely a MUST DO while in Switzerland. Our tour guide, Kid, was excellent.

We were very much looking forward to this trip... however the whole experience did not live up to our expectations. May be our objectives were different as we wanted an experience rather than a rushed tour. Since we have been in many other tours, we couldn't help but to compare the whole package.

I was disappointed in my tour. It was my impression that we were to visit Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald but instead had a very short window of about 20 minutes only in Interlaken, enough time for a bathroom break. I actually contacted Viator ,before we actually departed for our vacation, to ask specifically how much time we would have in both towns and was told possible 1 to 11/2 hours, which at the time surprised me. I failed to get the persons name I talked to. Our guide was gruff and slightly rude at times. I felt very rushed as if herded thru like cattle. Upon completion of tour we ended up having about 45 minutes down time before leaving top of Europe so I felt the rushing was not necessary. Other than this Jungfraujoch was a sight to see... So Beautiful and definitely worth seeing.

A unique experience to the top of Europe. Very lucky to have the best day during the visit. Everything around was clear and visible.

This was the best thing we did in Switzerland!!!!!!!
Review by: Derek T, October 2017
All I can say is..... WOW!!!! The reviews weren't kidding! This tour was most definitely the highlight of our trip to Switzerland! Not only is the country stunning... not only was the tour itinerary amazing..... our tour guide, Kid, MADE this tour!!!! He is absolutely hysterical! We had the time of our lives and are very grateful to have had Kid as our tour guide. He made the tour so much fun - I haven't laughed that hard in so long!! Kid makes this tour so unique - he took some pretty incredible pictures of us and others at the top of the mountain and sent to us to take home. Some of my favorites of the trip! Absolutely amazing time - thank you Viator for offering this tour! It's one we will never forget!!!!

The younger people in our group thought this was a great trip, but the rest of us thought it was a little too demanding and fast-paced. Our guide was brusque and practically ran us through the various stations, but we understand with a group of our size, he had to be so rude to manage the schedule. He was very accommodating, taking great pictures of passengers from the train windows with the mountains in the background. His skills at enabling the best possible pictures were amazing. I was just disappointed that this was such a large group. Because of the number of people, both in the group and on the mountain that day, we hardly had time to do anything. And through no fault of Viator, the facilities on the mountain were terrible. Lunch was impossible - expensive, tasteless fast food that you had to wait for forever. Also not attributable to Viator, the scenery was, of course, the most beautiful. We had fabulous weather which made the mountain scenery spectacular. I would take this or a similar tour when in the area. It can't be missed.
