Scenic trip to the Bernese Alps

5.00Our visit to the Bernese Alps was the perfect compliment to our visit of Swiss cities. We enjoyed a scenic journey on a comfortable bus with fascinating commentary from Renate, our knowledgeable tour guide. An unexpected surprise was that as we exited from a tunnel we entered a winter wonderland of freshly fallen snow. Our favorite stop was Grindelwald where we rode the gondola up to Mount First and mingled with skiers, walked the Cliff Walk, and enjoyed a hot lunch atop an Alpine peak. What a perfect day!

5.00This tour was absolutely breathtaking! Majority of our time was spent in Grindelwald (about 3 hours). We would have taken the lift to enjoy the mountain views better if not for the bad weather. It was magical just the same - so much beauty to take in!
Amazing

5.00I was a little nervous after reading reviews but I really don’t understand what they are complaining about! This is a great tour for younger people who don’t have a lot of time in Switzerland, want to see a lot, but don’t want to stick with a guide the whole time. Yes the train came from Zurich but we found a seat for 2 just fine. Interlaken was adorable. They had a great coffee and breakfast spot and a few places to shop for souvenirs. Grindewald was great! I wish we would have known that we probably could have fit 2 excursions Into our day, being younger Americans it was doable. We went up to the top, did the cliff walk, took pics, ate the take away options and came back down with over an hour to spare. I would not recommend shopping in the town as it’s mostly ski apparel. Lauterbrunnen was pretty short and uneventful. Because of the cold the waterfall was nearly frozen so we didn’t need much time there. Having the ability to plan our own free time at the locations was wonderful! The tour was high level but the perfect amount of info that we needed and they talked while we drove the way out. They were quiet on the way back so it was peaceful and you could rest. We loved this tour and thought the day was great! Definitely recommend!!
Great tour guide

Worst tour guide. Rude and disrespectful.

2.00The locations were good but the tour guides yelled was so rude and mean. Anytime we asked her a question she rolled her eyes and refused to answer us. I wouldn’t not recommend this tour is you get motion sickness easily as well because you are in a bus for an hour and a half going up a mountain with a lot of turns.
Nice

4.00Interlaken is not worth it, grindelwald was great. Lauterbrunnen was so late in the day it was dark already. I think we could take regular train from Lucerne station to grindewald and have good experience. If you hotel is close to train station trains are a good option.
Free to explore

5.00Delivered as promised. I was with a larger group. We did not follow a tour guide around but had free time to explore on our own which I preferred.
