“Wow, this experience made our short stay in Interlaken absolutely worth it. We had Thomas as our guide and you could tell he genuinely enjoyed his job and the history he is able to relay to the guests along the hike! It was very manageable physically and the views were totally breathtaking. We got lucky that it was an incredibly clear and sunny day at the top of the mountain. Be prepared for any motion sickness due to the travel to get up to the mountain but otherwise this was great!”

Small-group Alps day from Zurich to Lake Lungern, Giessbach Falls, Grindelwald, and Lauterbrunnen, with photo-ready views.
“Had high hopes however the trip was a little boring. The first two stops were pointless, we got off the van walked down the street and got picked up. Beautiful views everywhere however, way overpriced. The visit to Grindelwald was good, time to eat and walk around. The stop at Lauterbrunnen was also very cool, quick hike over a bridge with great Mountain Views. This trip could easily be done by renting a car and doing it on your own.”
