“Great experience with Swiss Local Adventures! The tour was well organised, the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and everything felt safe while still being lots of fun. The scenery was stunning and the small-group, local approach made it feel personal and authentic. Highly recommended if you're in the area.”

“Just great fun! Pierre was a fabulous guide, informing us about the sledding route we would take, the gradient of the slope, the corners ahead and where we could go faster or should go slower! He made our sled experience both safe and great fun… our group was small, only 5 in total and we shared lots of laughter and positive encouragement. After enjoying sledding all the way down the mountain and back to the village, we walked through the village of Murren, which was very pretty with no traffic, snowy streets and twinkling lights. Then back to Interlaken for a cheese fondue and many more laughs! Just great fun!”

“I had a wonderful time with my wife, thanks Pierre and your team, you were very welcoming! We tried the night sledding with fondue, and everything went perfectly. I highly recommend it. See you next year to try the snowshoe sunrise.”
