5.00We had a day full of experiences and stunning landscapes! Our guide picked us up at the Zurich train station to start our adventure. We visited Thun, a charming old town with a beautiful castle, and from there took a short train ride to the Beatus Caves, which were amazing—we spent about an hour inside. We finished the day with a cheese tasting in Interlaken at a very Swiss local cheese shop that had plenty of options. It was really cool and delicious! Our guide was kind and explained everything to us.
Amazing tour and guide!! highly recommend it :)

5.00We had a beautiful day full of breathtaking landscapes, an hour and a half exploring a cave, and a cheese tasting to end the experience. Our guide was kind, fun, and knowledgeable. He shared many interesting facts about Switzerland, and at every stop he told us something new. I felt very comfortable having someone help us navigate the trains and show us places we wouldn’t have found on our own. Thank you!
This tour was awesome! Highly recommend it

5.00This tour was one of the highlights of our time in Switzerland! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Our guide Jhon was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience even more enjoyable. The stop in Thun was absolutely charming, we loved strolling through the old town and along the lake. The Beatus Caves were fascinating, with incredible rock formations and a beautiful waterfall right at the entrance. The boat cruise on Lake Thun was so relaxing and offered stunning views of the Alps. To top it off, the cheese tasting was delicious!!! It’s a full-day experience, but everything flowed smoothly, and the scenery was breathtaking throughout. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see a mix of nature, culture, and Swiss charm all in one day!
High level of organization

5.00Such a great tour from start to finish. We enjoyed the fact of doing several things in one day: city tour, boat cruise, caves exploration and cheese tasting. Well well planned tour and a wonderful guide. Thun City it's a really postcard town!!
