Zsofia was a great tour guide and we had a lot of fun kayaking on Lake Brienz. She was knowledgable and helpful, explained how to use the kayaks, landmarks as we went past them and how the lake intersects with the river. We stayed at a shoreline for a swim and she offered us cookies. She had a GoPro and we could ask her to take photos and videos whenever (promptly shared a few hours after the tour). Belongings are stored in a locker at the shop. We were kindly accommodated when we asked if another friend could join us on the day

This was an awesome activity in Interlaken! My brother and I went together in the summer and it was a fun and memorable experience. The guide, Ryan, was incredibly kind and patient with everyone in our group throughout the tour. There was a mix of beginners and experienced kayakers (like my brother and I) and beginners. The guide allowed for the experienced people to have more freedom and was great at teaching the beginners. It was an awesome activity and I got some of the best pictures of the trip using my GoPro and the guide also sent photos he took using his GoPro for those that didn’t have a camera. I would highly recommend this activity for experienced and beginner kayakers in Interlaken!

Friendly guide, gave a bit of background of the nature of the 2 lakes, could have provided shelter for water bottles as water got really hot. Pictures were taken a bit far away with the go pro camera. Overall experience was really good. Very pricey though. Spent $350 for 2 pp for an overall 3 hrs including time for changing and safety . Great day, highly recommend it. Was amazing swimming in the Brienz lake. 👏👌
