Our trip from Grindelwald to Jungfraujoch was the highlight of our Swiss journey! The scenic cable car ride through the Alps was mesmerizing, and arriving at the "Top of Europe" felt surreal. The lce Palace, the viewing platforms, and the majestic snow-covered peaks made the day truly unforgettable. Although it was crowded at times, the organization and flow were smooth, and we never felt rushed. What stood out most was the sheer beauty of the panoramic views and the once-in-a-lifetime feeling of standing on top of the Alps-absolutely worth it!

We had wonderful weather and no transport problems. The view from the cable car cabin and over the plateau is magnificent. The tickets were a bit complicated: the QR codes for 5 people were on my mobille. I couldn't find a solution to duplicate them. I didn't like the amount of the fees.

Very fast connection from Grindelwald Terminal. Good signposting. The Jungfrau Joch is very touristy. Music on the train to the Joch is too much of a good thing. Very long walk to the highest point. Unfortunately the weather was poor. The self service restaurant seems very functional and cool. Has no flair ...

    I have never been to Switzerland before. I went here with my girlfriend. We were both completely and uttermost amazed by the views. Not only from the top, but also on the many train rides, and cable cars. Nothing can compare to this, totally exceptable. I loved it in many ways.

    I loved the gondola ride and the actual experiences once we were anle to get in. We were 15 minutes late and told we had to stand in the non-reservation line for up to a two hour wait. After my sister implored on a few people working there, she got us in the reservation line. Another inconvenience is you can only return at a specific time, 4 hrs after your reservation time. We were done in 90 minutes and had to again wait in non-reservation line to return. We paid a lot of money for this excursion and although it was amazing getting to and from the top was a very poor experience.

    The trains were clean, timely and the discount card made them affordable. I cancelled our rental car reservation after reading about the half fare discount card.
