Two Cities & Aareböötle Full Day

Interlaken city walk, Thun old town and lunch, Aareböötle float on the Aare, dinner at dusk

Duration10 hrs
Group1–4
RegionInterlaken · Thun · Aare
SeasonMay–Sep

Konrad's best day for groups who want both city texture and outdoor experience. Interlaken in the morning, Thun at lunch, Aareböötle from Thun to Bern in the afternoon, dinner in Bern at dusk. Four hours of open water and two of the most charming Swiss towns in a single loop.

The Aareböötle section is the heart of the day — the river connects Thun to Bern and you arrive into the capital from the water, below the Bundeshaus. Konrad guides the river section; the city walks are self-paced.

Itinerary

09:00

Interlaken — city walk

The main boulevard, the Höheweg, Kursaal gardens and the view of the Jungfrau from the meadow. Konrad narrates the town's history as a Victorian spa resort.

10:30

Drive to Thun

The 30-minute drive along the lake north shore. Konrad stops at the Strättligen viewpoint if the Niesen is clear.

11:00

Thun old town

The rooftop market walkway, castle exterior, and the river where the Aare exits Lake Thun. Lunch at one of the riverside restaurants.

12:30

Aareböötle launch

Rubber boats and gear at Thun Lachen. Into the river. Konrad in the water with the group from the first minute.

17:00

Take-out at Marzili, Bern

The iconic finish below the Bundeshaus. Bern old town directly above. Konrad coordinates return transport.

19:00

Dinner in Bern

Bern old town restaurant — Konrad books based on the group's preference. Bernese Platte for the full regional experience.

The region

Interlaken

The Victorian spa town between the two lakes. The Höheweg has one of the most photographed mountain views in Switzerland.

Thun Old Town

The rooftop pedestrian walkway is unique — the market stalls are one floor above street level, set directly on the roof of the lower storey.

Marzili, Bern

The Aareböötle take-out. The Bundeshaus sits directly above. Arriving in Bern from the river is unlike arriving any other way.
