Jungfraujoch from Zürich: The 15 Best Day Trips

39 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.3 average  ·  from $189

The highest railway station in Europe, three and a half hours from Zürich, and the steepest price on this site. These 15 differ on what they include — coach or train, guided or independent, Grindelwald or Lauterbrunnen on the way up. Book one on a clear forecast and it is unforgettable; book one into cloud and it is an expensive tunnel.

“Our guides Weili and Annette were amazing! We went on such a great day with beautiful weather. We had an hour stop at Interlaken to look around and explore and enjoy the views of the mountains. Awesome view of the alps (check out the pictures!). Ice palace was really cool! Being up at such a high altitude was an experience. We had a bus ride, cable car ride, and train ride on the way up. On the way back we had a train ride and bus ride. Tour started at 8am in Zurich and we were back in Zurich for around 830am. Long day but absolutely worth it!! Stunning and…”

Ride the Eiger Express gondola and cogwheel train to Jungfraujoch for Sphinx Observatory views and the Ice Palace, guided from Lucerne.

“Worst excursion I have EVER taken. This excursion should have been cancelled given the horrendous weather. It was torrential rain, and blizzard conditions. 55 mile hour wind at summit, lightning warnings and a complete whiteout. All but one lookout was closed, but you could not step out because of the strong wind and you could see nothing because of the conditions. We saw absolutely nothing. This 10 hour awful day was a waste of time. We were really dismayed when we learned that other excursions run by the same tour operator to Mt Titlis were notified in the morning that they could cancel the tour or go the next day…”

“First ofc let me say this tour does not take you to Jungfrau. You have to pay the tour operator an additional 172CHF in cash to have that experience. What you get is to be taken half way, given a train ticket to explore on your own and then meet to bus at the end of the day. My tour today was one of the worst I've ever had with Viator. The tour guide was extremely unfriendly and micro-aggressive towards me the entire trip and even went as far as leaving me in the way back, even though I was on-time, he saw me approaching the bus and I called…”

Jungfrau Travel Pass 3-8 days

15.Jungfrau Travel Pass 3-8 days

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 55 reviews · from $260

Jungfrau Travel Pass (3-8 days) gives unlimited rides across the Bernese Oberland by train, gondola, bus, and boat, with a Männlichen perk.

“Amazing scenery. If you love hiking, mountains and riding unique trains it is worth spending 3-5 days in this area and buying the Jungfrau region travel pass. It only covers this immediate area, and the boat rides on the lakes are not covered with 3-4 day passes only 5 or more, so plan accordingly. Also note that many of these railways are closed during winter, some opening late May.”
