Do not book this … over priced uber driver … not a tour.. read review

Brent_H, Jul 2026

Do not book this. It is not a tour. It is an uber driver only. We added on jungfraujoch and had him take us gimmelwald… zero history zero guidance in fact gave us the wrong directions to Trümmelbach falls which cost us about 2 hours For 3 people we had the driver for 11 hours and the cost on viator was over $1000 usd We added jungfraujoch and the added 2 hours of poor directions added 5 hours The extra 5 hours cost us almost $800 USD So for a glorified uber driver we paid $1800usd Yes it might take a little longer by bus because you are worried you don’t know what you are doing, but most people are helpful and will help you through the bus system Save the money extend your vacation a day that $1800 will pay for a hotel food and any other tickets that you wanna do for the two days But whatever you do do not book this and expect a tour Expect an Uber driver

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for thaling the time. We are very disappointed by this review because it contains several statements that are simply incorrect. First, this experience has never been advertised as a guided walking tour or a tour with a licensed guide. Our listing clearly states that this is a private transportation and sightseeing service, not a guided tour. The service you received was exactly the service you booked. Second, at no point during the trip did you ask for historical explanations. Our driver explained every destination, recommended the best viewpoints, restaurants, photo spots, and the most popular activities at each stop to help you enjoy your day. Regarding Trümmelbach Falls, this statement is also inaccurate. You specifically told us that you had already visited the falls and preferred to spend your time walking through Lauterbrunnen and taking photos. Since vehicles cannot enter the walking path, we provided you with the recommended walking route, exactly as shown on the map. The tour lasted 11 hours because you requested major changes to your original itinerary, including adding Jungfraujoch and extending the service far beyond the original booking. We completely reorganized our schedule to accommodate your requests, and the additional hours were accepted and paid for during the trip. Describing our service as "just an Uber driver" is unfair. We provided private transportation, complete itinerary flexibility, local recommendations, restaurant suggestions, photo locations, waiting time, and continuous assistance throughout your journey. We did everything possible to ensure you enjoyed your visit. A one-star review after we spent 11 hours accommodating your requests and extending the service far beyond the original booking is extremely disappointing. By requesting and paying for the additional hours, you confirmed that you wished to continue the experience under those conditions. We respect every guest's opinion, but we also believe reviews should accurately reflect the service that was actually delivered. As a Swiss company, we believe fairness and honesty are fundamental. Unfortunately, this review does not represent the service we provided, and we trust future guests will read our listing carefully and judge our company based on the facts rather than inaccurate statements.

Great tour to Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen!

Had a great trip to Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. It was private, just the family. Everything was on time as we got picked up from the hotel. We also got great restaurant recommendations.

Private Tour to Grindewald and Lauterbrunnen

Lin_L, Jun 2026

We had a great experience on our private tour to Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. The driver was very punctual and always ready to pick us up promptly whenever we finished our activities. There was a small mix-up at the beginning when we were dropped off at the wrong destination, but after I sent a text message, he called back immediately and quickly returned to take us to the correct location. His responsiveness and professionalism made the situation easy to resolve. Overall, we appreciated the reliable service and would recommend this tour.

Amazing Day trip to Grindelwald & Lauterbrunnen

Word of caution: this is...

JAIMOHAN_T, May 2026

Word of caution: this is NOT a private tour where you expect a guided tour without a big tour group crowd. This is basically like a premium taxi/hire service. The chauffeur will bring you around to places you wish to go, drop you there, and then pick you up when you are done. That's pretty much it!! If you are looking for a premium car hire for 6 hours, this is the one. But if you are looking for a private tour with a knowledgeable guide to drive you along, this is NOT. Some of my experiences I wish to share so you can proactively avoid it. The package says 6 hours, but the night before our trip I received a WhatsApp message with the departure and return schedule which would make the whole trip (including travel) only 4.5 hours. I told them them about the Viator page and then they agreed to the 6 hours!! Our chauffeur Mauricio was very friendly. We were picked up from our Airbnb and driven to Grindelwald. The car was in excellent condition with water bottles inside. We wanted to do some walking in the greenery and then explore Grindelwald town. So he dropped us at a spot from where we could do a walk down the mountain road to town. After about 2 hours he picked us up and drove us to Lauterbrunnen. Dropped us near the waterfalls, gave us an excellent restaurant suggestion, and he went off. After 2 hours he came back, picked us up and dropped us back to our Airbnb in Interlaken. So from pick up to drop it was about 6 hours in total. We didn't really get to explore Grindelwald town as we loved the walk and seeing the scenery. One of the options Mauricio suggested was that we could spend longer than 6 hours, but he will have to go back as he has other bookings later in the day... and we have to take a train from Lauterbrunnen back to Interlaken. When you pay over 500 CHF for a "private tour" the last thing you want to do is to take a train to go back home :D so we declined the proposal. Both Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen are awesome places to visit, and we will probably go and stay there a few days next time which will work out cheaper than the cost of this 6 hour chauffeur service.

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and for sharing your experience with us. We truly appreciate your comments and would like to clarify that our service is designed as a PRIVATE TOUR experience with a local driver-guide accompanying guests throughout the journey. The driver provides local recommendations, explains the areas visited, shares historical and cultural information, and is always available to answer questions during the tour. However, as clearly indicated in the tour description, the driver is not a licensed professional tour guide and therefore does not accompany guests personally during their walks or activities at each stop. We would also like to kindly clarify that this WAS INDEED A PRIVATE TOUR, as the vehicle and service were EXCLUSIVELY RESERVED FOR YOUR GROUP ONLY, without sharing with other travelers or large tour groups. We would greatly appreciate if this aspect could be reflected more accurately in the review. We also apologize for the confusion regarding the timing communicated the evening before your tour. Our goal is always to respect the full booked duration from pickup to final drop-off, and we are glad we were able to provide the complete 6-hour service as reserved. At the same time, we are very happy to hear that you enjoyed Mauricio’s friendliness, the comfort of the vehicle, the scenic recommendations, and your time in Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. Your feedback is very valuable to us and helps us continue improving both our communication and overall guest experience. Thank you again for choosing us during your visit to Switzerland.
