Listen to detailed recommendations from your guide and arrange your Interlaken meeting point before setting off to explore independently. Take a leisurely stroll through the lovely village and head straight for vertiginous vantage points around the area; gaze at the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Jungfrau region from your high-altitude perch and then climb aboard a train to Interlaken to spend the remainder of the afternoon. 

Admire the picturesque position of the town nestled between two lakes and embark on an explorative adventure. Take a cable car to the summit of Harder Kulm Mountain; ride the fun-filled funicular to Heimwehfluh for sweeping mountain vistas; admire the antique charm of the Unterseen old quarter; or delve into the history of region at the Jungfrau Region Tourism Museum. 

Reconvene with your guide at the arranged meeting point and relax during the scenic journey back to Lucerne, where the tour concludes.

Beautiful villages, shopping, lunch in Grindwald.
Vanessa_M
, May 2022
This was a great tour if you want to visit two different villages and relax, eat great food, go shopping for souvenirs, eat Gelato, and even paragliding in Interlaken! We got lucky it was supposed to rain, but the clouds cleared and we got sunshine and warm weather! Rode in a double decker bus with A/C. Make sure to have Dramamine if you get car sick because there are lots of curvy roads. Nice little train ride to Grindwald and you see cows with cow vells like the movies. Tour guide is very knowledgeable. You will enjoy this day tour and make sure to wear tennis shoes or comfortable walking shoes. I got in 18,000+ steps so yeah alot if walking.

BREATHTAKING 😍

, Sep 2019
One of the best itinerary we had. Though we have no much time left to tour around Interlaken we had to be specific with the number of minutes you have to stay with each spot. NOT recommended for family trip as you will not enjoy the limited time knowing you have your kids to be minded. This kind of tour would be more of enjoying the breathtaking views of the nature in a slow pace. I would recommend this for couples only as you will see yourselves running after time.

The group was too big and too many people doing different itineraries that caused the guide to lose track. We were the only ones stopping at the first point and she forgot to buy us our tickets which she realized as she was getting on the next train. The bus driver had to try to fix the problem, but it was a good thing we spoke Spanish as he didn't speak English or German which were the languages of the train station attendants. The description stated that we would be provided information on things to do around the town during our independent visit, however, no information was given. I feel like I could have planned this trip on my own and had the same expectations rather than spending the money on a non-helpful 'tour'.

, Jul 2014
The "independent" component of the day trip really gave us the freedom to explore places we wanted to explore more in detail. This allowed us enough time in Grindelwald to ride the gondola up Mt. First and hike partially down, seeing the cows with bells, little streams, mountain flowers and so forth.
