The top of Europe! I literally thought to myself "this is the most spectacular view we may ever see in our lives". Our tour guide was Kid. He made sure that we had the most unforgettable experience, and the best pictures of our trip. Clearly that is his mission. The whole day he kept us giggling AND getting to where we should be for the best experience and photos. He knows exactly what to do. Thank you Kid from Tim and Lisa! You were unforgettable as well as Yungfrau!
This trip was the BEST and was truly the highlight of our trip to Switzerland! Our tour guide Kidd was very organized and informative. He knew exactly where and when we had to get to each destination and helped us with everything on this tour. He was really GREAT!! It was a memorable and wonderful day.
This was an absolutely fabulous excursion! We had “Kid” as our guide. He was entertaining and very enthusiastic. He used our devices to capture our adventures with a true professional result. It was like traveling with your own photographer. Highly recommend!
At the conclusion of our Switzerland tour, we decided to go on our own Jungfraujoch Mountain. Jurgfraujoch trip takes you to the highest train station in Switzerland. It was very busy and commercialized. But, it is worth it to go to the top and see the sites over the Alps. We took time to walk through the Ice Palace with the beautiful ice sculptures. There are other activites to see and do. Plus nice place to eat.
Jungfraujoch itself was spectacular. Unfortunately, our guide, who introduced himself as “Kid,” seriously spoiled what should have been a wonderful day. He constantly rushed our small group, repeatedly spoke to guests in a rude and condescending tone (including repeatedly saying “Hellooo???” whenever he felt someone was moving too slowly or not complying with his commands) and provided very little actual explanation or meaningful guiding. The worst moment came when he became impatient with my 85-year-old father, abruptly snatched some maps out of his hands and threw them onto a seat. I had to intervene and tell him to calm down and treat people with respect. It is genuinely hard to understand how someone with such poor interpersonal skills and so little awareness of how he was treating guests could be working as a tour guide. The local operator was Hans Meier Tourist AG – Gray Line Zurich. The destination and itinerary were excellent; the guiding was not. If booking this tour, I would strongly recommend checking which guide you are getting in advance. Based on our experience, I would also seriously consider using a different operator. A magnificent destination deserves much better.
Though a long trip with several trains and long bus ride, the experience is well worthwhile. Our tour guide was Kid, lots of fun,with superb photo ops
Kid is the Best!! He is a lot of Fun and he’ll take care ALL of you, even takes you to the best spot and captures the best photos!! 🙌 to the IG & FB photo-maker King!!!
It was amazing. Switzerland countryside, from all angles, looks like a postcard, and this tour is no different - plus ending up at the top of the Jungfraujoch is hard to beat. There are different modes of transport and each and every one of them is exciting, due to where it takes you or what the ride is. The tour was expertly organised and led. We had Kid as our guide and he was the most unique and most professional guide I have ever encountered. It is only due to Kid that we will leave Switzerland with this wonderful memory. The tour seems expensive but considered the various modes of transports and where it actually leads, it is worth every penny. Kid is extraordinary. He knows every bend of the track and the best photo opportunities, and is not shy in directing your shot. He is most caring, always looking out for all tour paricipants and especially for potential "weak links" of his entrusted "flock". I travelled with my brother and we both agree - we loved this tour, no doubt, especially because Kid was guiding us.
Excellent.experience made even better with our fun amd unique guide Kid. He made the pictures and travel time fun and entertaining.
Kid was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! He was attentive and we some outstanding pictures from the tour. He made sure couples or groups all got their pictures taken at scenic spots. Always ask to be in Kid’s tours!
We had an amazing experience on the Jungfraujoch guided tour from Lucerne! The whole day was very well organised, and our guide 'kid' was the best! He was funny friendly, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip. He also took some great photos! The journey through the beautiful Swiss countryside and up to the Top of Europe was absolutely breathtaking. The views of the snow-covered Alps were incredible and truly unforgettable. ❄️🏔️ Everything was smooth and stress-free, and having a guide made the experience even more enjoyable. Definitely one of the highlights of our Switzerland trip! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Lucerne and wanting to experience Jungfraujoch.
Excellent tour. Our tour guide, Kid, was amazing! There was a bit of driving involved but well worth it when you get there.
Absolute fantastic Tour with seamless transfers, excellent tour guide (Raymond) and really allowed us to see the key views and sites without the complicated logistics. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to go here and not worry about arranging any details we learned a lot about Swiss history and culture as well. You probably need to have some level of physical fitness to move quickly between modes of transportation. Certainly would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.
The trip to the top was filled with amazing views. Getting there actually surpassed the experience at the destination. I visited the Jungfraujoch 45 years ago so I was saddened to see how much smaller the glacier was. There was significant less snow as well. Our guide was great at directing us to take the best pictures and videos but gave us no information on the history of the area. He did help us navigate us efficiently throughout the process
Reymundo and Milan were amazing! Very knowledgeable of the area and always provided great recommendations! They made our trip feel magical.
We had a great time in Switzerland with our tour guide, Kid! He was humorous, creative with photos, and made sure we were well looked after throughout the trip. He also arranged our own cabin and fast pass, which made everything so much easier and enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour, especially for anyone who loves taking photos while travelling!
Our guide Kid was excellent. He has inside knowledge of where to prepare to take pictures, when to take them, what poses and angles etc. He knew what to tell us to be ready to look at. He was very experienced and active. He made the trip fun!
The tour was first class. The locations, organization of transport and Kid’s humour and knowledge took this experience from a boring, regular tour to an experience we will never forget. Worth every cent but remember to bring your sense of humour. Loved it! Thanks Kid!
This is a great experience. Excellent guide, great commentary, friendly, knowledgeable, experienced, made the entire journey, very enjoyable.
The best excursion we've ever taken anywhere in the word. Especially due to the guidance, effort, and humor of Kid! I would recommend this trip to everyone and specify you want Kid as your tour guide.
The places are amazing but one problem which is the guide, he is not fit for hospitality like this one and shouldn’t be guiding such group. He is knowledgeable but don’t know who how people receive his comments, I spent sometime trying to find explain to my kids and calming them in order not to be offended by his way of interacting with us.
Fantastic full day trip. Operator allowed to join in Lucerne and go back to Zurich and they stored our luggage on bus which was appreciated. Fantastic trip and easy to book. Do watch the weather forecasts though and try and time your trip for a clear day. Leader was vey helpful and entertaining.
It was an amazing trip. I have been on plenty of tours and this was one of the best. Kid was the best guide I have ever had. It was a great experience
We had an amazing experience. Well worth the money. We had an amazing tour guide ( Kid Dongsaensuk) who was very knowledgeable and knew all the best places for pictures. He made sure everyone was well taken care of the entire day and we have many great memories and pictures.
It’s a full on day trip but that’s what you sign up for. Journeying up to Jungfraujoch by two cogwheel trains and the time spent on the snow/ice is amazing. Views are spectacular. It’s a long but amazing day. Kid, our tour guide was a character and he made sure the day went like clockwork. Only question mark was the point in stopping in Interlaken for 30 mins. By the time you got off the coach it was time to leave!
Tour guide was very flamboyant and made the experience extra special
We considered doing this on our own, but we’re so glad we chose to take this tour instead. It would have been impossible to cover as much ground as efficiently as we did with Kid, our tour guide. He was such a character, took great care of us all day, and had incredible energy. Kid guided us to the best photo spots along the route and knew exactly how to maximize our time between trains and cable cars. He made sure we captured great photos and videos at all the key points, often stepping in to take photos of us. It was refreshing to relax and let someone else handle the logistics. Kid kept everything running smoothly, guiding us seamlessly from one stop to the next. Once we reached Jungfraujoch, he gave clear direction on how to make the most of our time there. Thanks to the efficient transitions, we were able to see everything, enjoy a relaxing lunch, and still stay on schedule for the return journey. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an incredible experience without the stress of planning or worrying about missing connections. It was a fantastic day!
Totally worth every penny. Our guide 'Kid' was exeptional. He kept us moving along at a nice pace, took so many pictures.
Kid was amazing and made the tour very special. It is a cliche to say the tour guide was amazing but kid was the best tour guide we have ever had and we have travelled the whole world. He took care of every detail on the whole day from where to stand for great photo opportunities to handing us our train tickets seconds before we needed them. He really did go above and beyond for the whole day and took care of us. The tour was amazing but Kid made the tour amazing.
We truly enjoyed this experience! We only had a short time in Switzerland and were glad we booked this excursion. Our guide Kid was awesome-he helped us get many great pictures, which was very important to us.
Wonderful trip with our guide Kid who was very entertaining and attentive. The sights were truly magnificent and the weather was perfect except for some cloudiness at the top. What a memorable experience.
Despite a less than ideal weather with rain and heavy snow, Kid (Tour Guide) lifted the spirits of the entire group with his attention to details and needs of every member in the group. I joined the same tour in Nov 2022 and delighted to have him as our guide again :) It is hard to find a guide like him who goes the extra mile for his guests. Speaks local language and English fluently is an added advantage for him as he really knows the people very well. Thank you Kid for the lovely experience to JungFrauJoch!
Amazing experience. Our tour operator Kid was friendly. He made our trip do memorable. He took pictures at every important spots. Made sure everyone was comfortable and showed us everything in a timely manner. The cog wheel train, the train and then the tour back by eiger express cable car was amazing. This would be our unforgettable experience.
It is a MUST!!! It was an amazing experience with a FABULOUS guide. Kid (guide) was amazing, attentive, and so much fun!!!! Kid made sure we saw all the gems on our journey snd he made sure we walked away with many pictures of my partner and I with the best back grounds. He wanted to make sure you “enjoy your holiday” which he reminded us of often. I highly recommend this day trip. Things to consider…. Bring snacks and water. Be prepared for the cold temperatures and wear comfortable walking shoes.
Our experience was the best Our tour guide, Kid, was phenomenal. He got us the best pictures and may sure we were well cared for. And the rides and scenery was the best
Fabulous tour! Loved the entire day — train, gondola, the top of Europe. Highly recommend. Wish I had known: Bring a good refillable water bottle, healthy snacks, a hat, and mittens. We were also unclear about lunch options at the top. Kid did a great job of leading, taking pictures, and making the day enjoyable. This is NOT a waste of money!!
We were picked up on time in a very nice motor coach. Our guide Kid was exceptional all day long. He constantly told us what side of the bus or train to be on for the best photo. He took a lot of photos of us together, much better than selfies. Probably the best your guide we have ever had. The content of the tour was the best part. We saw incredible countryside, rode on two different cog railways and 1 large tram. Interlaken is a very touristy town in a gorgeous setting. Jungfraujoch was over the top. An incredible setting between two mountain peaks, stunning scenery, mountains and glaciers everywhere. Loads of people but ample room to get around and take photos. Wear shoes good for walking on snow and ice. A very warm coat and gloves are a must also, especially when going through the ice palace, very slippery and the hand rails were very cold. Helpful hint: if you are prone to motion sickness take some meds even before you get on the bus. Our driver was very good but uou are on winding mountain roads all day.
Be careful! I never received the info and tickets to the excursion until I attempted to get a refund for a Paris event. I spoke a Viator rep and they had my name wrong ……and other this. Note a confirmation number is Not Enough I will review again.
Really a fantastic highlight of our Switzerland trip! Everything was perfect. Got a little altitude sickness but our guide told me to get chocolate and a coke and once outside I’d be fine. He was right. Our guide was so wonderful took amazing pictures. We had perfect weather to see everything. One thing , it is a long day and no eating on the bus and very little time to grab food. So prepare ahead for that. But I highly recommend this.
The whole day was very organized. Each mode of transport we took had reserved seats. Our guide Raymond was very nice. Beautiful views of the alps!
This is such an incredible experience, a must see when in Switzerland! The tour guide Ray and the driver Marc were both exceptional! So much beauty and history piled into one tour! Much love from Canada L&R
From 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!
Our 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 for all tourists. The tour took care of all transportation arrangements. That helps a lot. The operator, Raymond, has been very professional and friendly. A highly recommended experience.
Dress in layers and drink lots of water. Walk slowly and take lots of pictures. Ask for Hans as a guide.
Fantastic trip. Hans, our guide was excellent. While it was raining and overcast in Lucerne, it was beautiful and clear at Jungfraujoch.
The 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.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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
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.
