Overall rating

This tour is worth every penny! It is well organized and the guides are very friendly and helpful (Andrea and Betina, if I'm not mistaken). They answered all of our questions and were very clear, speaking Spanish, English and understanding Portuguese. I suggest taking a snack because the trip is two hours long without stops. Initially, I only bought this package, and when I arrived in Grindelwald I bought the Grindelwald First mountain climb (incredible!). The tour is only worth it if you include this climb, because there is not much to do in the city of Grindwald.

This was my mom and my FAVORITE thing we did in Switzerland! We travel during the winter season and we were so overjoyed to learn that since the town of Grindlewald has such high elevation the weather is so sunny and beautiful even this time of year! We took the cable car to Mount First for 65 euro and so happy we did. So many excellent restaurants and shops and sights to see! You will not be disappointed.

Everything was exactly as explained on the website. The guide (Roberto) was very attentive and gave us advice on how to visit the different places. We would repeat the experience!

All the staff were very responsible and explaining everything about places in details and taking care of all tourists very carefully

Beautiful and scenic. Plenty of time to explore and do most of the picturesque locations. Guides explained well.
