Family of four here, and honestly Jungfraujoch alone justifies the entire booking. Chapel Bridge walk at sunset was a lovely bonus none of us expected to enjoy this much.
Old town in Bern was pretty but the Jungfraujoch train up was seriously crowded and we had to queue almost an hour longer than planned with two tired kids, cut into our summit time significantly. Otherwise a lovely trip overall.
Three towns in six nights, and not a single dull moment for our family of four. Bern gave us gentle history and cute bears to start things off calmly. Lucerne's Chapel Bridge and lakeside charm made for a lovely middle stretch of the trip. Jungfraujoch closed things out spectacularly, my kids built their first snowman in July which they still cannot stop mentioning. Premium package but comfort and pacing were genuinely family friendly throughout.
Our kids built their first ever snowman at Jungfraujoch in July, they still will not stop talking about it.
Bear Park in Bern was such a simple pleasure for our kids after a long flight from India. Jungfraujoch the following day gave us the big wow moment the whole trip was building toward.
Lake Lucerne shoreline walk was the most relaxed part of a fairly packed family week.
