★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 134 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $133

See Grindelwald, Interlaken, and Lauterbrunnen from Lucerne in one scenic day, with free time, mountain views, and optional Alpine activities.

“Pros- views were absolutely spectacular. Lauterbrunnen is a sweet town. Worth the stop. Grindelwald was highlight. Gondola ride to top was well worth it. Cons- was insured to arrive 15 minutes early. Tour guide and bus was 17 minutes later than scheduled pickup time. AC did not work properly- long ride from Grindelwald to Interlaken was miserably hot. All complained. Food at grindelwald cafeteria was awful - though no fault of the tour our recommendation is to dine on town at the base of the mountain. Interlaken stop was unnecessary. Not much to see - small strip of stores and a casino. Overall we recommend because views and total experience.”
