Very well organised experience!

Amazing experience! What a fantastic place! Everything was very well organised! I can easily recommend to everyone!

Incredible experience at the Top of Europe

Published on Jan, 2025

This is one of those experiences that is a little bit of hard workb and is not cheap, but worth every effort and every dollar. Pros: Best tour I've ever done. The tour company and guide were top notch (thanks Raymond). The Meier tour company were flexible when we needed to change dates due to illness, and the guide very knowledgeable and friendly. The views, the views and the views...I don't know how you can see such beauty across Switzerland in just one day. Truly a winter paradise! The awesome engineering of the trains and gondola in the mountains are incredible. Jungfrau jock is something else! Cons: It is expensive in Swiss francs, but... Everything here is expensive. Just book it and forget what you paid. It is a very long day. You'll definitely fall asleep on the bus home. Be prepared for this. The itinerary is a little bit rushed. I don't think there is any avoiding it, when you're cramming this much activity into 1 day from Zurich. There is down time on the trains etc, but moving between them is a little frenetic at times. Apparently the experience can be quite weather dependant... We were very fortunate on our trip though.

Well worth doing

We had a great day from start to finish. Raymond our guide and Mark our driver made the day one we will remember forever. The whole experience was amazing.

Breathtaking Views!

Published on Jan, 2025

It was truly a dream come true traveling to Switzerland for Christmas/my birthday with my person! Breathtaking views left & right! Amazing tour guide and driver! I would highly recommend booking this tour! You will not regret it, I promise you!

Overwhelming experience. Top of Europe a real treat!

Published on Jan, 2025

I have heard so much about this experience but nothing could prepare us for the reality on the day. Xia was the most phenomenal guide. Under her care we experienced the best the excursion had to offer. We were blessed with perfevt weather. Xia had lots of valuable and interesting information. Timed to perfection we fitted everything promised into the day. The services all ran exactly to time and Xia kept us on track throughout. Experiencing her love of the place was a treat too. Mark (our driver) kept us safe and got us back within the 11:00 hours. What a phenomenal way to experience this exceptional spot. Thank you Xia!
