Travel from central Lucerne to Jungfraujoch with an English-speaking guide, passing through Interlaken and Lauterbrunnen before riding the cogwheel railway to Europe’s highest railway station. See the Ice Palace, Sphinx Observatory, and Aletsch Glacier, then return by Eiger Express cableway. Guides such as Kid, Hans, and Raymond are known for keeping large groups organized.

“This was a great value for all included. Kid was our host. He did a great job of keeping a large group moving through as not to miss anything, even when they tried to do what they wanted. His interaction and photographer skills was much appreciated. He knew where the right spots were for the best shots. The only issue I would mention is the description of the meeting place in Lucerne. The McDonald's is across the street from the Tourism office, but the bus pulls up around the corner. Kid was frustrated that we were not at the right location, but it was due to the instructions.”

“Best of Switzerland Tours hosted a group for the 10 hour day trip to Jungfraujoch from Lucerne. The tour was exceptional and our host Fernando ensured that things ran smoothly and on time. Everything was done for us and the skip the line tickets were a great option on a busy holiday weekend. Fernando provided great insight into the region during our drive to Grindelwald and was highly supportive. The weather played its part and gave us moments of absolute clarity for some of the most spectacular views. We enjoyed every moment of the tour and highly recommend it to other travellers.”

“I thought we would be going to Grindelwald & Lauterbrunnen, but we didn't. We were only in Lauterbrunnen to get off the train and on the bus. I was very disappointed by this because those are the places that I really wanted to see. Jungfraujoch was interesting. It was a long process to get up there and extremely crowded once there. It was completely covered in clouds when we first got up there, but the clouds did break after a little while.I did not go out on platform 9 (i think), because it didn't seem safe walking on all that ice and snow. People were having problems. And the same…”

12.Eiger and Jungfrau Panorama Day Trip from Lucerne

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 33 reviews · 9 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $189Best value

This 9.5-hour trip takes you by coach from Lucerne through Interlaken and Lauterbrunnen to Kleine Scheidegg, with a cogwheel train ride through Wengen country. You get free time for lunch or hiking beneath the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. Guide support varies, and Jungfraujoch costs extra.

“We were met near the Central Station in Lucerne by our skilled driver and knowledgeable guide and driven to Interlachen a lovely town on route to the mountain..On arrival to our destination we could not put our cameras down.Breathtakingly beautiful views were seen from Eiger after ascending the mountain by train.A must.if you visit the Lucerne area. My only criticism Is that our party of 8 had no guide for half the day.Others had chosen to go to Jung Frau.The increased cost of 92 SFranks per person was something our party of 8 could not entertain.Perhaps separate these tours in the future or have two guides on board.”

Travel from Bern to Jungfraujoch with an English-speaking local guide, using the Eiger Express and mountain railways through Grindelwald and Kleine Scheidegg. You’ll visit the glacier-top station at 3,466 meters, stop at Staubbach Falls in Lauterbrunnen, and see Interlaken before returning to Bern. Guides such as Jonas and Lina handle the many train connections.

“What a fantastic tour! Who knew there was a railway built inside a mountain in Switzerland? And that it was completed over a hundred years ago? We had an amazing day with our guide Jonas. He took care of all the train transfers getting to the top of the mountain and all the transfers getting back down and back to Bern using a different route. Such a relief to have someone knowledgeable make these time-sensitive reservations and be able to negotiate with the staff when things don’t go quite as planned. He also provided additional historical context from the perspective of a Swiss citizen about the trip, but also about…”

“We ended up having horrible weather. But that's the gamble with going up to Jungfrau - mountains create their own weather system. It was a pure white out at the top. Zero Visibility. Talk about a let down. We spend most of our time on the in-door attractions. The Ice Caves were the highlight of the trip. Also, bring your own snacks, lunch and bottle water. Food/Drink at the top of the mountain is below average and Very Expensive. We were able to have some nice views up to Wengen but after that - cloudy rainy and freezing cold. The biggest complaint I had was our tour guide. She was…”
