Suggestions - just returned from the Crown Jewels
Here are a couple of suggestions:
1. When you go to the top of Matterhorn and Jungfraujoch make sure you are well hydrated - take water with you. At those heights one can begin to feel a little lightheaded - they will give you small pieces of chocolate but I also brought some chocolate chip Cliff Bars and those really did the trick. I had packed them in my backpack prior to leaving home.
2. There was one occasion that our luggage did not arrive in our room in a reasonable time - - thus we did not have enough time to shower and clean up prior to dinner -so my suggestion is not to take the earliest time.
3. On the final night my wife and I did not get to sleep until11:30 and we had to get up at 3:45 because of our early flight - Zurich airport is approximately an hour from Lucerne - and Tauck insists that you arrive at the airport three hours prior to your flight -this is something to consider.
4.Overall the trip was fantastic - scenery amazing -met great people and had an excellent tour guide. You really do not have that much free time. There is time in Interlaken to paraglide later in the afternoon.

Airport--- we always arrive at an airport three hours before a flight, you just never know if there could be a problem at security or whatever. Clearly Tauck has the same idea as we do.
