// ABOUT THIS VIDEO //

If you’re planning a trip to the Jungfrau Region near Interlaken, Grindelwald, and Lauterbrunnen Valley, then here are 15 Swiss travel tips to know before you go!

• IS JUNGFRAUJOCH WORTH IT? Plus what to wear, things to do at Jungfraujoch, and when to go.

• SWITZERLAND WEATHER can change quickly. We share a local website with the best Swiss weather info (like expected minutes of sunshine or rain!)

• HOW TO NAVIGATE SWISS TRAINS in Interlaken, Grindelwald, and Mürren since those towns have multiple train stations with similar names (like Interlaken Ost and Interlaken West, Grindelwald Terminal and Grindelwald Bahnhof, etc.)

• HARDER KULM TOP OF INTERLAKEN is a great spot to enjoy the sunset! But before you wait in super long lines, consider this time-saving Swiss travel tip.

• BUYING A SWITZERLAND ITINERARY for the Jungfrau Region will save you hours of time planning your Swiss vacation!

• HIKING IN SWITZERLAND. Thankfully the trails are well-marked and the trail signs are easy to follow…if you know what they mean!

• GRINDELWALD FIRST is one of the best places to visit in Switzerland because the views are jaw-dropping! But if you want to enjoy the Grindelwald First Adventure Activities, don’t skip this video!

• IS LAUTERBRUNNEN VALLEY as impressive as they say? We think so, if you know where to go!

• SCHILTHORN has the alpine views and revolving restaurant, but THIS other place nearby has the thrills!

• SWISS TRAIN PASSES can make or break your budget in Switzerland. Here’s a huge tip!

    What is with the nasty comments? You’re both very likeable and very informative. I lived in Switzerland decades ago and am using your videos to plan my upcoming trip. So much has changed and you’re detailing it all. Thank you!
  • I REALLY appreciate your detailed and thoughtful insights in all your videos. It was very helpful in my 10 days trip in Switzerland. In addition to seeing the beautiful sights you two have suggested, I saved lots through the half fare card and the Berner Oberland Pass. Keep up the wonderful job, you guys are truly the best! By the way ,it was especially nice running into the two of you in Lauterbrunnen. What a nice surprise!

  • @johnqsmith6563
    Highly informative. Very glad I watched this before going.
  • @jakobpeschke1760
    The most important tipp: DON'T GO UNPREPARED TO THE MOUNTAINS! You tend to understimate the dangers of the mountains with sudden weather changes, the cold temperatures, the exhausting routes and so on. Plan your trip, show somebody where you'll going, when you'll be back and look for emergency exits. Download your route and map to your phone, don't expect to have data everywhere. Also don't overestimate your capabilitys. I see every month news of dead tourists, and I don't want to see you on this list.
  • Thanks for this great video! My friend and I are planning for our trip to Switzerland next year and your information was very helpful :)
  • @jamesprivet
