    Great way to start your Lucerne Visit

    "We had a small group of 8 and it was our first trip to Lucerne. Sandy was friendly, knowledgeable and a pleasure to do a walking tour. She loved answering questions and helping us learn so much about Lucerne and the surrounding mountains. She also made some fabulous recommendations for restaurants."

    Geneva in the Cold!!

    "Adriana was great. We did a walking city tour of Geneva and it happened to be a very cold day and my husband had a hurt leg from skiing so we were moving slow. She was really patient with us and I think tailored the tour a bit because of these obstacles. Definitely recommend her for any tour you may want to do in area. "

    Eligio is an Incredible Tour Guide

    "My wife and I met Eligio in Zurich for a tour of the city. I thought Zurich would not be as an exciting city to tour as some other European cities we have visited. Eligio proved me wrong. He was an incredible tour guide, showing and explaining so many interesting details of the city. He kept us excited and interested the entire time. He took us to places we did not even know existed, including a secret underground area below the old Roman castle grounds, the oldest bakery in Zurich and many more places I had no idea about. Eligio really made our trip to Zurich priceless and it felt like we were with an old friend the entire tour. If you are booking a tour, make sure you get the greatest kindest guide in Zurich. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Eligio!!!!!"

    Awesome Chocolate and Town Tour with Giada

    "Giada gave the four of us an amazing chocolate tour of Zurich. We went to a variety of chocolatiers, each of which illustrated a different aspect of chocolate making. Along the way, Giada provided interesting information about the older part of the city and its buildings. She provided excellent recommendations about what to taste and purchase. She is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her and will use her again for other tours when we return. "

    Wow what a grest tour!

    "Caroline, full of knowledge and shared it in such a professional way. Caroline asked us key questions figuring out what we already knew about Geneva. Layering on more information about Geneva and Chocolate. Not in the dominating teacher/student fashion but in the way of a long time friend sharing thier knowledge in a conversation."
