Lake Thun fairytale
The 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
This tour was very well organized and offered a perfect mix of nature, culture, and local food. The visit to Thun was charming, the Beatus Caves were impressive, and the lake cruise had stunning views. The cheese tasting was a lovely final touch. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the beauty of the region in one day.
