Lake Thun fairytale

5.00The landscape of Thun Lake is out of a fairytale. We had a nice cruise and took the lunch on board. Beatus caves requires some fitness readiness as it's quite steep but slowly you can do it. Our guide Joana was very kind and friendly which made the experience even better
Excellent tour and a knowledgeable and fun guide
