I am British and have been going to Switzerland for holidays since 1971. I have been up the Jugfraujoch twice, but I will not go again. I call Jungfraujoch 'The Top Ripoff of Europe'. The price has shot up so much that it is just not value for money. There are other high mountain trips in Switzerland which cost far less for (in my view) better scenery. I would particularly single out the line from Zermatt to Gornergrat which currently costs (with Swiss Travel Pass discount) well under a hundred franks. That line is almost entirely in the open air, and the view from the top is almost 360 degrees. In the Berner Oberland area the cable car to Schilthorn goes almost as high as the Jungfraujoch.
I find your videos interesting and to the point without any fluff, thank you. As per your recommendation I do not see how to return from Jungfrajoch a different way on their web site. How do you book that option?
Does the return ticket have time bounds ? Planning to travel from Interlaken, so if we take the return trip tickets is there any time restriction of connection from Grindelwald ? Or we can spend sometime in Grindelwald and then take a later train to Interlaken ?
With the Good Morning ticket you must leave Jungfraujoch by 13:17, however you can take as long as you want at any of the stations from Kleine Scheidegg/Eigergletscher down, you can visit all the attractions, however I would advise visiting the Sphinx observatory first as queues for the lift up can be long
@@davidorf3921 That's right... we left Interlaken Ost at around 7:30 am... by 1 pm we were heading back. I’m not sure if we would have been fined if we missed the time! But in Swiss francs, missing the time wasn’t even an option, hahaha. The trip was amazing! It went really well! We enjoyed it even more than the Titlis trip!
Thankyou so much..going in April

Not 100% sure, check with them info@jungfrau.ch
Question; when i buy a ticket(from Grindelwald - Junggrau), do i still need to buy seat reservations?
Optional
Does the Good Morning Ticket give you 4 hours? Does it include everything? Can you visit all the attractions?
To be honest I have never checked info@jungfrau.ch
