Our tour guide, Vitalli made our trip so special and memorable. He was so precise with all the locations from the CLOY film and very informative even showed us with a proof from his IPAD! What made it more fun was that the trip of ours was exclusive since it was just me and my husband during the tour so we had all the time to take good photos and mesmerized by the beauty of Interlaken. Thank you Vitalli, for the wonderful photos! We felt like Yoon Seri and Capt. Ri for a short period time. We enjoyed and thank you so much for showing us around! We had a lovely time💖
