5.00What a fantastic tour! I had a wonderful day with my family. We started with a city tour in Thun, where our amazing guide, Julienne, told us about the history, the frescoes, the castle, and shared artistic insights about Switzerland and the city. Then, we visited the Beatus Caves, where we spent over an hour exploring. It’s a bit of a workout, but we never felt rushed, and it was such an interesting experience. We finished by tasting cheese at a local shop — everything was well organized and absolutely delicious. What a hidden gem! I didn’t expect to see so much beauty in one day. I highly recommend this tour! 😊
