Switzerland · JUNGFRAUJOCH
The highest railway station in Europe, and the most expensive ticket in this catalogue. These 15 compare the routes — direct from Interlaken, the long coach day out of Zurich or Lucerne, the pass options — on price, total hours and what you actually get at 3,454 metres. Bad weather does not cancel the train and does not refund the fare, so read the flexibility terms before you pay.

“Great day where you get to see many parts of Switzerland. They take you through Interlaken where you have an hour to walk around and explore. You get to pass through different towns on the way back from the Top of Europe. Absolutely beautiful day and I felt like we got a good amount of time to explore a few locations on our own. Train timings were perfect and would’ve been very difficult without a guide. Highly recommended.”
Roundtrip train to Jungfraujoch at 3,454 m. Explore the Ice Palace, Alpine Sensation, and glacier views in a 6 to 6.5 hour day trip.
“Great place to see. The signage and directions to get between the places is very poor so had to ask a lot of people to find out where to go and so that took a lot of extra time. Once we got there it was fantastic.”

“Absolutely fantastic pass, we used it so much and got around everywhere which was amazing since how beautiful Switzerland is, especially the jungfrau region. The transport system so efficient and clean, never late. And thanks to this pass, my husband received a 10% discount on a beautiful Tissot watch that he bought me whilst we were here. We would definitely recommend paying the little extra on visiting the jungfraujoch which we received another 30% with this pass.”

“Firstly our tour guide Kid made this day amazing! He ensured everyone had amazing sights, photos and kept us all entertained! I don’t think we would have enjoyed it so much if it wasn’t for him! Massive thank you Kid for the memories. Now the sights… incredible! It’s an expensive tour but definitely worth it. To stand on the top of Jungfraujoch was amazing. Switzerland is one of the most beautiful countries we have visited and this day highlighted that indeed.”

Jungfraujoch and Lauterbrunnen from Bern in one day, with Eiger Express, Staubbach Falls, and a guide plus rail pass.
“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…”
Guided day trip from Lausanne to Jungfraujoch, the Top of Europe. See Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau, Ice Palace, then Interlaken lakeside.
“Buenas Tarde: Incumplimiento de servicios contratados. Lo vivido dista mucho de lo publicitado y contratado, incurriendo en un claro incumplimiento de contrato. No existe ningún guía, ni el tren tarda 1H 30min, pagas por el transporte a Jungfrau + ticket de teleférico + tren. Perfectamente por tú cuenta sale mucho mucho más barato.Il n'y a pas de guide et le trajet en train ne dure pas 1h30 ; vous payez le transport jusqu'à la Jungfrau, le billet de téléphérique et le train. C'est beaucoup plus économique de le faire soi-même. Bonjour : Non-respect du contrat de prestation de services. Ce que nous avons vécu était très loin de ce qui…”

Two days to Jungfraujoch from Zurich or Lucerne, with a night in Interlaken or Grindelwald, cable car, cogwheel train, and Ice Palace.
“This was a great journey for us! We left the majority of our luggage with friends in Germany, so all we had was a backpack, less luggage is better. Both days of our tour were great and we enjoyed our extra time in Interlaken. It was the perfect enhancement to our stay in Switzerland. We did have to clarify a few things with our guide, like checking into our hotel during the Interlaken stop before reloading the bus to Grindelwald, and then taking the train back to Interlaken, the train ticket was included. On the second day meet up our guide told us a different place than the brochure. We…”
