Fabulous Day with Mike

Mike was so gracious and gave us great information before and after each attraction. He made sure to give each guest special attention. He made access to each attraction so easy and seamless. We are global travelers but this is one of the best tours we have done. Such a variety of unique things to see all in one day. He was flexible and worked in extra things when we didn't need as much time as others. We would highly recommend booking with Mike.

Saw so many gorgeous areas - great conversations and history. Was great to get out of the “city” in a vehicle vs a train which gave us the opportunity to see the area in a different way

Rainy, but fantastic day

Michael our guide was fantastic. He was very informative and told interesting side stories. Beatus caves are spectacular, just know when get to the end you have double back the way you came. Was a little rushed to get back to meeting place.

Great way to see some gems outside of Interlaken

Mike was an excellent driver, host, and time keeper. It was an easy meeting space by Interlaken OST. We enjoyed all the stops- caves, suspension bridge, city of Thun, Blausee Park and the boat back to Interlaken. The caves were amazing with so much rushing water and the morning time was appreciated because it was not busy! The suspension bridge was not at scary as we thought but seeing it later from the other side made us realize how high it was. Thun was an excellent place for lunch by the river and shopping. The park was small but the lake was beautiful. Our boat ride back over Lake Thun and through the channel was a great way to end the trip,

Day Tour-Lake Thun

Mike was a great guide. His knowledge of the area and willingness to share with us was amazing. We were in a small group of 6 and felt spoiled to have Mike as our leader. The St. Beautus Caves were fun to explore, I love hidden nature sites. My husband and I highly recommend this tour.

Well worth doing We had a great guide in Mike and we saw a great deal. The caves were different to all previous caves we had been in over the world. These caves travelled upwards and you walked up into the cave system and not down into it.
