Works as expected in the playground - help :-/
// Enter your code below
func getTowerCoordinates(location: String) -> (lat: Double, lng: Double){
switch location {
case "Eiffle Tower":
return(48.8582, 2.2945)
case "Great Pyramid":
return (29.9792, 31.1344)
case "Sydney Opera House":
return (33.8587, 151.2140)

Two things. First you misspelled "Eiffel" in "Eiffel Tower". This is one of the many dangers of working with Strings :) Second, you do not need to name the components of the tuple. The challenge doesn't want you to nor does it make sense if you aren't using the names for something.
// Enter your code below
func getTowerCoordinates(location: String) -> (Double, Double){
switch location {
case "Eiffel Tower":
return(48.8582, 2.2945)
case "Great Pyramid":
return (29.9792, 31.1344)
case "Sydney Opera House":
return (33.8587, 151.2140)
default:
return (0, 0)
}
}
Good Luck!
