So, where is Interlaken? 🧐
🗺️ If you’re looking at a map of Switzerland, you’ll notice that this town is located near Lauterbrunnen Valley, Grindelwald, and Lake Brienz. Oh yeah, it’s near Jungfraujoch (which is also called the Top Of Europe!)
🏔️In other words, Interlaken has an incredible location to reach mountain lakes and waterfalls.
It’s close to villages like Wengen and Murren.
You can take a day trip to Jungfraujoch or the Schiltorn or Grindelwald First.
With 2 different train stations (Interlaken Ost and Interlaken West), it’s an amazing place to experience the best of the Swiss Alps!
🤑 But is Switzerland expensive? Maybe…but it doesn’t have to be.

I wanna go to interlaken that’s one of my dreams 💕
Thank you for your tips!!!
Do you have a website?
Was in Switzerland this month with some friends, spent time around Interlaken an it was great, Giessbach hotel was recommended by our hotel, such a stunning view of the lake
This is great, really helpful. I am currently at Interlaken. Your research and information has helped me and my wife a lot. Especially, your recommendation for velo cafe!
This is awesome you guys! We are heading to Interlaken in 2 weeks. I’m sure we’ll have a much better time thanks to all your content. Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent presentation. Very informative.
I really like the videos and ideas, but I'm afraid the music is going to drive me insane 😂😂
Just came back 2 days ago from Interlaken. Have planned 5days trip from Germany. Each and every view was magnificent and breathtaking.
Specially JungFraujoch, Harder kulm, st. Beatus caves, GiessbachFalls, Trummelbach Falls, Hohematte park are worth visiting places.
How I wish to live in in Interlaken
Can you suggest the name of some budget stays in Interlaken, Zermatt, Lucerne and Zurich ?
you talked about prices but you didn't mention specifics, waste of time
Headed there tomorrow! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for the info. Pretty sure, Will keep in mind all the tips!❤️. You guys are spot on! 😉
Want to ask you something. My dad 80 years old is an asthma patient. We are planning to visit Swiss in August. Which places are relatively safe ? Any idea ? Is it fine if we stay Zurich without going up in the alps ?
Thank you so much ❤
Great video, really useful… even better to meet Brett on the way down from Harder Kulm!
you are giving headache by talking too much. the content is nice though
You guys are awesome ! Thank you for sharing this information and research.
Hello. We are staying in Milan and will be traveling by train to get to Interlaken and possibly Grindlewald. We don't plan to stay just to look around, eat, and see the lake. Is everything walking distance? How can we get around if you don't have a pass? Will it be expensive?
Hi guys, Can you advise a couple of Accom. options in Wilderswil ???. For around $200- 250 US. for 2 people per night. In June/July. Max. Australia.
I only discovered your videos today and this is the second one I've watched (but I'll watched more, I promise). I have to say you guys rock! Your videos are so professional, with a wealth of useful information, well presented, sharp editing, we feel your energy and enthusiasm. I'm planning a trip in Bernese Oberland for next year and your videos have became my number one information source. I can't thank you enough! Cheers to you both! 🙂
I've just been there and wanna thank you because I took one of the most stunning photos in my life three. However, as a European I felt like in Bangladesh or Islamabad there because 99% of people there were Asians.
i live there lmfao
You'll be diabetic by age 45…..
Amazing🎉
