Stunning Views - Amazing Day

It was an amazing trip filled with beautiful views and surroundings as well as great commentary and knowledge from John, our tour guide. Each stop had a unique story to tell and intriguing history filled with information to learn about and the views at Jungfraujoch was simply amazing!!!

Unhappy campers

Very long time on bus. Only one stop! No toilet facilities on the bus, very bad experience. If you pron to car sickness stay away from this tour.

Great scenary, poor guide

The organization, timings and experience were excellent. The guide, although he was efficient, was more interested in making sure we got photos of ourselves, almost "Snatching" our phones. As soon as everyone had been "processed" we moved on, no time to actually sit and take in the magnificent views
