Breath taking vistas. For me a once in a lifetime experience. Tour guide was very informative. For everything that was included the price was justified. If going in the winter months make sure you dress appropriately for very cold weather as there is a definite temperature difference at the Top of Europe. Would absolutly recommend this excursion.

Bus journey to and from Jungfrau was a bit long, about 5hrs in total but the Jungfrau experience itself was great. Guide gave out information on sights that we saw on the road. Once we reached Jungfrau we enjoyed the train rides to Jungfrau peak. We took the cable car on our way down. Time given to explore the peak was sufficient.

Weather was inclimate so we didn't get a chance to do the cable car or step out on the platform, but our guide was incredible and guide our entire group and other people not a part of our group to safety during a blizzard.
