Great trip, rushed but a good experience!

Kainaat_M

, Aug 2021

The stay at Interlaken was too short. It was more like a 20-minute toilet break. It would have been great to have a few stops for a few minutes each around the way at scenic places to take pictures and see the spots out of the car. Everything felt like it was rushed and we were being scooped from one place to another. However, even with that, I had a great time and enjoyed it. Barbara was the perfect tour guide. I have never been with a tour guide better than her. She was kind, helpful, and did her best to maximize our experience.

Response from Host , Aug 2021

We thank you for your kind review and wish to comment that you have up-grated the tour from Interlaken, Grindelwald in the Bernese Oblerland to Jungfraujoch-Top of Europe, which I think was a wise choice because the weather was just perfect for the mountain trip. Nevertheless, with this program the stay in Interlaken is shortened because we need to catch the train in Lauterbrunnen. If I am not mistaken the longer route was chosen along the lake to avoid the traffic jam due to the construction on the other side where the highway is. We regret that the time given in Interlaken was too short but are most pleased to learn about the great time you had on the tour with Barbara as your tour guide. Many thanks and hope to welcome you again on one of our tours.

Déception

marilyne_Q

The activity was canceled, He informed me a few after my arrival in Zurich. Which by the way was the reason why I was going to Zurich. A few hours before would have been preferable. I receives a courriel for information.

Response from Host , Aug 2021

Dear Marilyne We apologize and can understand your disappointment. Still we wish to explain that our business policy requests a minimum number of participants to run the tour. Usually this is 10 in number but during COVID-19 times we even lowered it to 6 persons. There was a contact phone number listed with your booking. The connection was in England and when we called, we reached a call center of an agency. As it was at the weekend, they recommended us to send the information through the extra net. It is true that we sent the information at 6 pm the previous evening. We regret that we have upset your plans, still we hope for a chance to welcome you to our tour to the Bernese Oberland when Corona has less influence in the travelling habit of our customers. Best regards/ Madeleine

Not Enough and Too Much Time

sallymO555ZI

, Sep 2019

We loved wand tarot decorations Interlaken, but didn’t have enough time to get to either lake since we were dropped off in the middle. We only had 90 minutes. We were the only ones on this tour. The driver took us to Grindelwald for 4:45 hours! Since we aren't Hikers, we ate lunch and sat around for hours. While the scenery was pretty, it was a boring time. Wish we’d just taken a train to Interlaken.

Self-guided tours of two beautiful Swiss cities

Meander62631

, Aug 2019

Enjoyed our time in Grindelwald and Interlaken. Guide provided minimal details of what to do while there - need to research before you go. We walked the city of Interlaken which was beautiful. In Grindelwald we took the Gondola up and saw some magnificent views -definately worth the money.

The places covered as part of this...

Surajit S

, Aug 2018

The places covered as part of this trip was really good. We enjoyed the time during this trip,the scenery around Grindenwald and interlaken was excellent. I would recommend same trip for others who want to enjoy a nice day trip from Zurich. The tour guide was not good one he didn't explain us how do we can make best use of our time in Interlaken and Grindelwald. We had to find out and plan everything on our own. The tour guide just dropped us in the stop and vanished. At least he could have mention us where to go and what can be done in the allocated time. As I travel on regular basis I could make some quick plan.

Unless you're heading to...

Magnolia

, Jul 2018

Unless you're heading to Jungfraujoch on this tour, this is primarily a shopping/dining drop off. For those of us who did not join the tour to go up to the top of the mountains, we had 2 hours in Interlaken and 4 hours in Grindelwald. The areas were primarily shopping and dining so we felt that Grindelwald could have been 2 hours shorter.

I feel so disappointed of this tour...

Connie S

, Feb 2018

I feel so disappointed of this tour! We just had half an hour in Interlaken and took a few hours in a village, where was not mentioned beforehand and had nothing to do and see. Finally, we went to Grindelwald for a while in the purpose of picking up those people who went up to the Junfrau.

Was in Interlaken and Grindelwald...

Adrian F

, Dec 2017

Was in Interlaken and Grindelwald last week and it is an amazing place indeed. Was snowing most of the time and it makes the place look magical. The stop in Interlaken is too small and that is something I did not like about it as it would have been nice to spend a couple of hours in Interlaken, that I was disappointed about, apart from that the company was great and enjoyed the tour. There are only 2 companies that operate these tours and this one grey line are the best for sure. I booked also a tour with the other company called best of switzerland but the tour was a total disorganisation, would not recommend that at all.

Interlaken was absolutely beautiful...

Interlaken was absolutely beautiful, full of shops and eatery overlooking the mountains. Once we got to Grindelwald, it felt like heaven on earth! The alps were simply breathtaking! Bus tour ride was a fair distance but totally worth it!
