Interlaken Non-Stop Intro Safari: Private Eco Car Tour to Iseltwald's CLOY Pier
Select participants and date
The small car slips out of Interlaken's grid of streets like a camera panning through a film — only here the landscape is the star. In 80 minutes a local guide navigates quiet village lanes, cliffside lookouts and two mirror-like lakes while passengers remain comfortably seated. Windows frame the Jungfrau’s white teeth, the lakes glitter in different greens, and a chorus of cowbells punctuates the route as the guide unspools stories: which bridges once flooded, where a bakery keeps an old recipe, and why the pier at Iseltwald became a screen location for Crash Landing on You.

Adventure Tips
Bring charged batteries
Guides rely on WhatsApp and may ask to share live location; bring fully charged phones and a power bank.
Pack a reusable water bottle
Only water is allowed in the car; carry enough for the 80-minute trip and refill in town before pickup.
Request stops in advance
This is a non-stop tour by default — if you want to step out at Iseltwald or Heimwehfluh, request it at booking; extra fees may apply.
Travel light and wear sport shoes if you might disembark
The route requires minimal mobility, but if you plan a quick photo stop bring comfortable shoes and minimal luggage.
