Private Transfers to Interlaken with Fast Ride Travel

The town occupies the flat ground between two lakes: Thun to the west and Brienz to the east. The centre is compact, with hotels, restaurants and both stations within walking distance of each other.

The Höhematte, a large open meadow in the middle of town, keeps the view towards the Jungfrau massif open; paragliders landing there are a familiar sight on a clear afternoon.

The two stations serve different directions. Interlaken Ost is where trains leave for Grindelwald and the Lauterbrunnen valley, while Interlaken West is closer to the western end of town, to the old quarter of Unterseen and to the piers where boats leave on Lake Thun.

Unterseen, on the far bank of the Aare, is a small town in its own right with a compact medieval centre and quieter lanes. Travellers choose Interlaken because accommodation, transport and excursion departure points sit close together, and the villages and mountain railways of the region can be reached on day trips without changing hotels.

Fast Ride Travel arranges private transfers between Zurich Airport (ZRH) and hotels, apartments, private residences and business addresses in Interlaken. The journey starts and ends at the address you enter, and that address is given to the driver, so include the street and number rather than only the hotel name.

The same service runs the other way: a pickup at your address in Interlaken for the return to Zurich Airport, planned around your departure.

Other private journeys can be arranged as well, from another airport, from another Swiss city, or with a stop on the way. Journeys outside the standard airport routes depend on availability, so describe what you need and we will confirm what can be arranged.

Individuals, couples, families, business guests and larger groups all use the service. The exact address, passenger count and luggage details matter because they determine which vehicle can be proposed and how the pickup is planned.

The booking form shows the vehicle classes offered for your journey with the price for each, so the options can be compared before you decide. Choose by passenger count and amount of luggage rather than by model.

Mercedes V-Class is one of the classes that may be offered and is practical when several passengers travel with full-size suitcases. It is subject to availability, as every class is, and the vehicle assigned to a booking can differ within the class.

If you are unsure which class fits your party, describe who is travelling and what you are bringing, and we will suggest a suitable option.

Give the hotel name together with the street and number, or the full address of an apartment or office. A complete address is what allows the driver to plan the approach and stop at the right entrance.

Pickups at Interlaken Ost or Interlaken West can be arranged where vehicle access permits. Forecourts and exits differ, so state a precise meeting point, such as the station forecourt or a particular side of the building.

Some addresses cannot be reached directly: lanes in the old quarter of Unterseen are narrow, a few properties have pedestrian or delivery-only access, and roadworks occasionally close a street. In those cases we agree a nearby meeting or drop-off point with you before the journey.

Grindelwald and the Lauterbrunnen valley are reached by road and are commonly visited from Interlaken; the valley road continues to Stechelberg at its far end.

Not every destination in the region can be reached by car. Wengen and Mürren are car-free: a road transfer reaches Lauterbrunnen or Stechelberg, and the last part of the journey is made by mountain railway or cable car. Jungfraujoch has no road access at all; the final ascent is by rail from Kleine Scheidegg, itself reached by mountain railway from Grindelwald or from Lauterbrunnen via Wengen. Timetables and access arrangements change with the season, so check them with the operators before you travel.

Boats on Lake Thun and Lake Brienz leave from piers close to the two stations and are part of the public transport network, not part of a road transfer.

All of this is a suggestion for your stay: Fast Ride Travel does not sell attraction tickets, operate mountain railways or boats, or include sightseeing stops by default. If you would like a stop on the way or a multi-stop itinerary, ask with your enquiry; availability and the price for any additional distance are confirmed before you book.

The vehicle is for your booking alone, and pickup and drop-off are arranged at the agreed addresses wherever vehicle access allows, with a meeting point agreed in advance where it does not.

The vehicle class follows your passenger count and luggage rather than a fixed assignment for the route, and the booking form shows the price for each class before you choose.

Prices come from the actual road route and the class you select and are shown before you confirm, with VAT included and listed separately. Review the price and included services shown in your quote before confirming your booking. Any requested changes or additional services are confirmed separately.
