Interlaken e-bike tour with Yellow Velo: ride rivers, lakes, and castle ruins on easy electric bikes, with helmets and rain gear.
“A very enjoyable e-bike ride around Interlaken. Relaxing, scenic and we had wonderful weather which added to the experience. The e-bikes work so well you don’t feel like you’ve exercised at all. I felt rather lazy and just hit turbo for any inclines so the bike did all the work. Could have gone right up the mountain and not broken a sweat. Haha.”

“Wasn’t sure what to do in Interlarken for our first full day and decided to do the bike tour- best decision! What a way to see the city! We absolutely loved it- guide/owner Tommy was a great host, super knowledgeable and so friendly! Was a true highlight of our European holiday and we loved every minute- views and routes were amazing and a lovely end with a hot choccy by the lake- couldn’t fault our day! If you’re undecided what to do or unsure if you should book- DO IT! It’s a must! Thanks for having us!”

“Great tour! Great guide!! He did such a good job!”
Glide through Geneva’s Old Town on an e-bike, hit top sights fast, then enjoy free time inside the Museum of Ethnography.
“Bonne balade pour visiter les sites "éloignés" comme la "Broken Chair". Par contre il faut prévoir une visite (à pieds) du Centre en complément. La guide ne nous a pas appris grand chose (à part que Gustave Eiffel était Suisse !) et nous n'avons pas apprécié le parcours qui se fait à 50 % sur des lieux interdit aux vélos. Les remarques des passants puis finalement de la Police, bref très désagréable. Enfin les signalisations n'étaient pas respectées ce qui était gênant voire dangereux. Pour le prix prévoir un parcours qui respecte la loi me semble un minimum. C'était proche de l'amateurisme.”
Every kind of Swiss day out, and the best of each.
