"We had a wonderful Zurich walking tour with Eligio. It was a fantastic start to our Switzerland trip. Eligio took us around Zurich and showed us not only the common spots, but many lesser known and hidden spots. He had great facts and stories about the history of Zurich. We even had a chance to take a quick break at beautiful cafe for some cheese, bread, and wine. All 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent with him. "
"Our tour with Tainah was very enjoyable even though it rained. She was very pleasant, informative and can I say very likeable. She made us feel comfortable to the point that we didn’t want the tour to end. We feel we made a friend in Lucerne!"
"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!!!!!"

"Thomas is an excellent guide. We used his services the first day of our visit to Zurich. We needed the relaxed pace as we were a bit jet lagged. He provided a full tour with needed information so we could explore the city on our own for the following 3 days. His recommendations helped us plan for meals. See were made comfortable with an understanding of the culture. "

"We had a great tour with John! He gave us great information and history on Lucerne in an engaging and fun way! Thank you John!"
"She came to our hotel to get us, knew all of the history, helped us get fondue dinner reservations that day and lunch reservations at an impeccable Italian restaurant the next day as well, and didn't charge us time for getting us to a boat trip and continuing on our own to Burgenstock that was the highlight of whole trip."
"Luliia was an amazing guide. She provided the history and details of the town. Extremely flexible and had many good recommendations. I would highly recommend her."

"John has a great passion and knowledge base for history, culture, art and the local food palate. Having Lucerne as his home, as well as living in other locations, he was able to provide the perspectives and dynamics of varying cultures and life. John certainly was able to share his passion for Lucerne and to keep us engaged in a holistic and historical fashion. He is definitely a great guide."
