Truly enjoyed every second of this trip! The initial drive is fairly long, but totally worth it. We were able to walk around interlaken for a bit before heading to grindelwald where we could take the gondola up to the mountain and enjoy ziplining (two types), the cliff walk, etc. there is also a restaurant/ place to chill up there if that’s your vibe. It was an INCREDIBLE view and worth every penny. (We did the day pass that included both ziplining options, so it is an additional fee, but even as a budget traveler - worth it). There are cute little shops you can walk around to once you take the gondola back down and then you get to take the train back to Interlaken at your preferred time, so you aren’t on anyone’s schedule which is nice. Interlaken was phenomenal as well, but most of our time we chose to spend up the mountain. It was cheaper to do this than the trains for us, so 10/10 experience! Would highly recommend if you are into scenery / being in the mountains.

I had a great time exploring Grindelwald. The guide Bettina was extremely helpful. When trying to book transportation tickets around the area the card machines were down. Bettina assisted all of us in booking online and translating everything. She helped me make all of my plans so I could see as much as possible while in Grindelwald.
