In an interview, René told us what he particularly likes about his work as captain and where he sees parallels with his hobby, beekeeping.

Most guests on the Attila have crossed a special ship on their journey across the three lakes: the MS Jura. Formerly a modern passenger ship, it has now been offering trips with overnight accommodation for almost 30 years. Most of the guests are school classes, institutions for the disabled, various themed camps or private individuals. As the MS Jura project is not self-supporting, sponsors and patrons are always very welcome! We met the skipper David Weber and talked to him about the project.

There's no need to take the plane to fly over crystal clear waters and enjoy spectacular days on a cruise boat. And when the engines turn, they do so with a powerful propulsion that respects the environment. To make the most of it, your trip to the Trois-Lacs region will also benefit local businesses, and you will discover the charms of one of the most beautiful regions in Switzerland. Beat Kläy, PDG of Attila, explains to us at what point Attila is located in a sustainable way.

He works in one of the most beautiful places in Switzerland. Bruno Marthaler, Managing Director of the St. Petersinsel restaurant and monastery hotel. The natural paradise with its own organic farm and vines invites you to relax, discover and enjoy. As a guest of the Attila Boutique Boatel, you can enjoy an unforgettable stay on the island on Lake Biel.

Sitting in the offices of atelier oï in La Neuveville, you can see across Lake Biel, the Seeland and the 3-Lakes region to the Alps, which form an almost unreal horizon on a clear day. From these rooms, which once belonged to a motel, around 40 creative minds create design, architecture and art projects for clients from all over the world. And are now involved in an extraordinary project in the immediate region: the Attila Boutique Boatel.

From the atelier oï in La Neuveville, the view glistens over the lake of Bienne, the Seeland, the Trois-Lacs region and, in toile de fonds, the Alps with their silhouette almost unreal in time. Since these premises, which used to look like a motel, some 40 creative minds have been developing design, architecture and art projects for clients from all over the world. They are currently engaged in an extraordinary project on their doorstep: the Attila Boutique Boatel.

Bank CIC has been supporting the Attila Boutique Boatel project since the very beginning. Not only for economic reasons, but also because the two project managers Pierre Kammermann and Davide Castrini have taken the Seeland region to their hearts. CIC Bank employees in particular should also be able to benefit from the partnership with Attila. A conversation about finances, childhood memories and the immense anticipation.
