6.Night Sledding with Fondue

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 10 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $171

Leave Interlaken at 6 pm for a guided night sled run in the mountains. Ride for about an hour through woods, alpine meadows, and past frozen waterfalls, then sit down to a traditional Swiss meal with one drink. The route may shift with snow conditions. Sleds, transport, and the gondola ticket are included.

“Very fun experience- sledding through the town of Murren at night was truly unbelievable. Beautiful views and scenery. Make sure to take time on your own to take pictures as our group had a number of sledders who wanted to always go once we got to a stopping point and we would not have had the opportunity to take pics if we hadn't stopped and took the time ourselves (no fault of the guides, just a heads up if you want pics/vids). Great guides, easy logistics, very friendly and helpful”

The small group holds up to eight people, and guides such as Allen and Danny are known for keeping the mood lively. The tour starts at 6 pm and ends in Unterseen, without return transport.

“Almost £200 for two of us, it was on a dingy, very compact, quite uncomfortable, very close to person next to you and no leg room due to boxes under the table. Only drink options were wine, sparkling water an tea, none of which we drink. Then was given some cheese a potatoes, which weren’t bad, was just very expensive for just that. It went dark quickly so couldn’t see any scenery on the lake, didn’t get to row down into interlaken so we just circled the same spot for an hour. Just overall very underwhelming and very very expensive for what you get. I complained and asked for a…”
