Our own private guide...
Our own private guide Christophe was a huge asset during this tour. He knew all the tips and tricks to make this tour easy, fun and educational. He also assisted my mother who was a bit slow on her feet and really took the time to make sure she was ok!

Without Hesitation-The BEST Guide-Christoph
We spent the most wonderful day with our private tour guide. We were paired perfectly with Christoph who loved history and geography as much as we did. This private tour gives you all the best experiences of this part of Switzerland (Interlaken,Grindewald, Jungfraujoch etc. You experience train rides, gondola rides that take you above the clouds, glaciers, an ice palace, a snow bar, and of course the Top of Europe. Its a full round trip experience with a personal guide that knows the best routes, stops, and exactly how it all originated. This wasn't just a personal tour...this was an experience! We highly recommend going in the early Fall as the pines are changing colors and its an incredible addition to the snow capped mountains and Glaciers.

Very weather dependent, we...
Very weather dependent, we were lucky and lots of sunshine, a beautiful experience, you can see that the glaciers are receding and the eternal ice is not eternal. Advisable to visit during the week and as early as possible in the morning. A guide saves the need to ask when to go where and leads to a relaxed day trip.

The guide was excellent....
The guide was excellent. However in the viator website it did not mention that we will be using public transport and walking the full 8 hour tour. I would have preferred a car to pick us up and take us to the closest spot ..to take the train to jungfrau.. and have the car come and pick us up at the next train spot. It also mentioned that we will be seeing grindelwald ( which we did not ) ..
