Overview
Join us for a ride around the breathtaking valley of Interlaken. Our guide will lead the way alongside pristine rivers and lakes, through picturesque woodlands and countryside. We'll take you off the beaten track and show you the spots that only the locals know. To top it off why not take a refreshing dip in one of Interlaken's famous turquoise lakes.
We're a vintage bike shop! Which means that all of our bikes are retro and vintage. Each bike has been hand picked with pride and each has it's own unique style!
So let us show you that the best way to explore this incredible region is by bike.
Please note: This is not an E-Bike tour, we ride regular bikes. However the route is flat and we ride at a leisurely pace, so the tour is suitable for anyone who is occasionally active.
