Lauterbrunnen Village
15 min
Lauterbrunnen is situated in one of the most impressive trough valleys in the Alps, between gigantic rock faces and mountain peaks. With its 72 thundering waterfalls, secluded valleys, colourful alpine meadows and lonely mountain inns, the Lauterbrunnen Valley is one of the biggest nature conservation areas in Switzerland.
- 2
Staubbach Waterfall
15 min
Lauterbrunnen's landmark and Switzerland's highest freefalling waterfall can be explored during summer season from behind by way of a purposely-built rock gallery. During the high season, the waterfall is illuminated in the evening. The Staubbachfall inspired Goethe to write his poem «The song of ghosts over waters».
- 3
Murren
1 hr
Mürren – a former settlement of people from the Lötschen valley in the Valais, which still remains recognisable today from the design of the houses and the pronunciation of the Mürren dialect – is the highest, continually inhabited village settlement in the canton of Bern and lies on a terrace at 1650 metres, high above the Lauterbrunnen valley. A double-cable ropeway leads up onto the plateau from Lauterbrunnen, while a cableway runs from Stechelberg, past turbulent waterfalls and craggy rock faces, into the centre of the car-free village of Mürren, and further to the Schilthorn at 2970 metres.
- 4
Gimmelwald
30 min
The arrival alone is spectacular – a cable-car takes you high over the rocks to Gimmelwald (1400 m). The intact, pedestrian, Alpine village with its 13 farms and many houses decorated with an array of flowers, has maintained its original character. Above all, families and young people from all corners of the world come together here.
- 5
Trummelbach Falls
1 hrAdmission not included
The Trümmelbach Falls are the world's only glacier waterfalls that are accessible underground by lift, galleries, tunnels, paths and platforms. They alone carry the meltwater of the glaciers from the Jungfrau down to the valley - up to 20,000 liters of water per second. The water carries with it over 20,000 tons of boulders and scree per year and causes the entire mountain to shudder and make a thundering noise.
- 6
Grindelwald
45 min
The Eiger village of Grindelwald in the Bernese Oberland lies embedded in a welcoming and green hollow, surrounded by a commanding mountainscape with the Eiger north face and the Wetterhorn. This mountainscape and the numerous lookout points and activities make Grindelwald one of the most popular and cosmopolitan holiday and excursion destinations in Switzerland, and the largest ski resort in the Jungfrau region.
- 7
Iseltwald
30 min
shore of Lake Brienz in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland. Renowned for its serene beauty and stunning turquoise waters, it offers a tranquil escape amidst a dramatic alpine backdrop. The village gained recent international fame as a filming location for the popular K-drama "Crash Landing on You," drawing visitors to its iconic pier and charming lakeside setting.
- 8
Giessbach Falls
1 hr
The Giessbach brook tumbles in 14 stages, over a length of 500 meters and out of the high valleys of the Faulhorn area down to Lake Brienz. Historic Grand Hotel Giessbach is located at the foot of this nature spectacle. The hotel is accessible by means of Europe's oldest funicular.
- 9
Aareschlucht
45 minAdmission not included
The Aare Gorge is a 1,400 m long and 200 m deep natural wonder. It takes around 45 minutes to walk through the imposing gorge – an easy and safe walk along walkways and through tunnels. With its constant cool temperature, the Aare Gorge is naturally refreshing – making it an ideal destination for a beautiful sunny day. When it rains, the gorge is very impressive with its mystical atmosphere and, at parts, large stretches of water.
- 10
Interlaken
15 min
Interlaken is a popular resort town in the Bernese Oberland region of central Switzerland, nestled between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. It is world-renowned as an adventure sports capital (paragliding, canyoning, river rafting) and as a gateway to the spectacular Jungfrau Region. The town offers stunning views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains.

St. Beatus-Hohlen, Swiss Caves
1 hrAdmission not included
The St. Beatus Caves high above Lake Thun are a chance to discover a unique underground world. Visitors can explore around one kilometre in the depths of the Niederhorn massif, following a well-designed and safely lit path. As they immerse themselves in this unique subterranean environment, visitors will discover stalactites and stalagmites that have been formed by nature over millions of years.

SUISSE Travel—-unhinged! Don’t.
Warning! Owner is unhinged…… We have reported him to GetYourGuide who we booked through originally. I have screenshots of him threatening to “find out who I am and it won’t be good for me” for leaving a review on Google. He called two days before our tour to explain he could not find a driver or a guide at the price that we paid through the third-party. He suggested we could book through him or just cancel. I asked a question which was why he did not already have this prepared as we had booked months in advance and he explained that people cancel all the time and that, “ doesn’t know me and I’m a stranger and could cancel”. When I said, but we did not cancel… That’s when he got super irritated called me a “Karen”. I said that we would cancel through GetYourGuide and I would be sure to let them know and leave a review. He referred to me as a Karen again and hung up. He then continue to send me 12 messages through WhatsApp threatening me and telling me how entitled I am. This is the short version. There are so many amazing tour companies in this is simply not it. There’s an internal of investigation on with GetYourGuide. This man should be removed off any tour platform that exist. If you do some research, you will find similar reviews through Google, TripAdvisor and Viator. Any tour that you see the provider is SUISSE travel simply skip.

Don’t use Tour Guide Gavino Strebel
We were a group of 8 adults, age 62-73 with (4) men 6’2” - 6’4”. I booked the Private Tour to the Interlaken area of Switzerland and exchanged several emails with Tour Guide Gavino Strebel explaining how tall our men were and to make sure we had a big comfortable vehicle because it was a 10 hr tour. First off he wanted me to cancel with Viator and book with him. NO!! That wasn’t going to happen. I confirmed with him the week before our tour to make sure we had a comfortable vehicle for 8 adults. He assured me he had. We had done (2) Private Tours around Lucerne and Mt. Pilatus and had Mercedes Sprinter vans. Very comfortable vehicles. Gavino Strebel showed up in a 7 seater van. He said he thought we had only 7 people. We were crammed in this vehicle. Gavino is NOT a tour guide. He is a driver only and a bad driver at that. This guide can’t walk and chew gum at the same time. He would get right up on the car in front of us and slam on his brakes. Knowing he had a van overfull of people. He never talked to us about the history of Interlaken while we were driving over an hr tour to our first destination. He is LAZY. After 4 hours he had to take a NAP in the van while we toured on our own. This happened twice. This tour guide is a joke. We ended up cutting almost 2 hours off our tour because we were so uncomfortable in the van and we had had enough of Gavino’s driving and laziness!

Amazing Full Day Tour with Willi
This was our favorite day in Switzerland! I was traveling with my two sons, 18 and 19. Willi met us at our hotel in the morning and we made a basic plan for the day. The main reason I chose this particular tour was the fact that it was customizable and Willi had a good suggestion how we could do everything we wanted to do without rushing too much. We first drove about 40 minutes to Grindewald and hiked up to Bachalpsee Lake. Willi encouraged us to go off the main path from time to time which got away from the throng of tourists and gave us some spectacular views that we would not otherwise have seen. We then drove about an hour to Oechinensee and took the gondola up and hiked down to the lake. Willi was kind enough to take lots of pictures of me and my sons for us. We then walked back down to the tram station along a path that we basically had to ourselves before Willi drove us back to our hotel in Interlaken. Willi was a kind, informative and fascinating guide, having lived all over the world and being very passionate about his homeland of Switzerland. The only neagive I could say about the tour was that in the email exchanges leading up to the tour, I was communicating with someone other than Willi who had instructed me to buy the cable car tickets with a specific time frame. This led to some confusion on the morning of the tour and cause us to almost miss our timeslot. It would have been much more effective if I had been able to email the particular tour guide directly. But the day was amazing and one my kids will probably never forget.

A great way to see the Berner Oberland area
This tour was a great way to experience the Berner Oberland! Our guide Gavino was accommodating and considerate to the various needs of the 7 persons in our group. Flexibility in the itinerary made the tour unique to us. It was a beautiful and most memorable experience!

Unprofessional tour guide
The guide emailed me the night before to ask to be a hour late. He gave me a lot of reasons. That he was going to have to go to Asia the next day. And that when we booked this 1500.00 excursion that he didn’t have enough money in it to dedicate anyone else. I said ok, see you at 10. The tour lacked history. The guide took us to lunch and sat down at the table with us. We thought he was just going to help us answer any questions. But he ordered and when the bill came he never asked to pay for his. Very awkward. Then we told him we did not want to walk anymore and we did not want to go through a town . He pushed and we got one more pic. We told him we were done with the tour. He then said two minutes please and drove to a dart to fill jugs with milk saying “my mom loves fresh milk” Very unprofessional and not recommended. I am not paying for the tour guides comfort or preference.

Great full-day tour of the Bernese Oberland with an excellent guide
We had a wonderful full-day tour with our guide, Benedikt. He was as pleasant and accommodating as we could possibly have asked for. We especially enjoyed our visit to Trummelbach Falls, but also enjoyed Geissbach Falls and our first stop at Handeggfall Bridge. Benedikt was so accommodating that we even changed our itinerary a bit on the fly, allowing us to see the beautiful car-free town of Gimmelwald at the end of our day. It was a highly enjoyable day that allowed us to see a lot more of the Bernese Oberland than just the lakes and Jungfraujoch.
