Our group of 10 had an interesting and educational tour of Geneva with Adriana. A bus and driver were included so we covered much of Geneva including Old Town, the parks near the lake, and the UN/Botanical Garden area. We were on the bus part of the time but walked around many of the places we visited. Adriana did an excellent job of keeping our group informed and organized, so I would recommend her highly.An interesting and educational tour of Geneva

We had a large group (8 people) that Adriana was able to accommodate. Because we got into Geneva late, we had limited shops available but Adriana was able to book us a private tasting at a store after closing. The store was amazing, and so was the chocolate! She then spent extra time with us walking around the city, eating gelato, and booking us a dinner reservation! She even brought us on the Lake Geneva boat to get a closer view of the mountains. We had the best time and would not have had half the knowledge we do without her!!BEST TOUR EVER

The tour was very good. Adriana spoke great English and was great with knowledge of Geneva. I would encourage future goers to go on the tour on a day besides Sunday as a lot of shops and restaurants are closed on Sundays. Tastings of geneva

Our food tasting tour in Geneva was an awesome experience. Not only was the food choices fantastic and very local, Adriana’s background knowledge of Geneva and short history lessons along the way provided us with a foundation in Geneva’s history. But most importantly she was very relaxed, fun and relatable. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Adriana anytime any day. Thanks for an awesome experience!!

A Adriana foi a melhor guia que tivemos na Suíça. Além de toda a atenção durante os tours, ela estava sempre a disposição nos outros momentos também, e nos deu as melhores dicas de parques, restaurantes e passeios. Ela explicou de forma simples e detalhada todos os pontos em que visitamos, fez os tours com calma, sem se apegar à horário e nos deixando totalmente à vontade. Além disso, fala diversos idiomas, mora na Suíça há muitos anos e possui uma bagagem riquíssima de viagens e experiência, o que agregou ainda mais os nossos momentos. Conseguiu manter um certo equilíbrio no que fazíamos pois no grupo haviam 2 jovens e 2 idosos. E todos se divertiram! É uma pessoa leve e suave que indico de olhos fechados. Foi um prazer imenso tê-la conosco.The best guide in Switzerland!

Dear Adriana, Our family tour in Lausanne was everything we hoped for and more. You are a magnificent storyteller, and you brought the city's history and culture to life by weaving in fascinating historical facts about the people and their traditions. We particularly appreciated how you began the tour with an overview of the area. As we walked through different neighborhoods, you skillfully explained how each one fits into the larger context of Lausanne. It’s clear you have done extensive research, combined with your own experiences. Your knowledge of specific dates and political history was both impressive and engaging. We learned so much from you, and you made the experience enjoyable. You took the time to answer our questions and helped us understand our own experiences in context. We also appreciated your sense of humor and personal warmth. We feel fortunate to have had you as our guide during our visit to Lausanne. Thank you very much, and we wish you continued success in your future endeavors. Warm regards, MaureeOur family tour in Lausanne was everything we hoped for and more!

Our group arrived in Geneva in in the afternoon and engaged Adriana's services to get familiar with Geneva. Adriana accomodated us and met with the group in our hotel. She was very punctual and knolledgeble. Adriana gave us a fantastic tour, showing main attractions as well as answering our questions in details. We found her very personable and professional. Overall our group got exactly what we needed: great intro tour of Geneva as well as answers to all related questions which allowed us to continue exploring wonderful city of Geneva and its surroundings on our own. I would highly recommend Adriana’s services. Thank you Adriana !!!Fantastic tour of Geneva!

Adriana, Eu , Davi e Ilan gostamos muito de conhecer um pouco de Genebra através do seu olhar. Você conduziu super bem, respeitando o tempo e a necessidade das crianças. Apresentou um pouco da história da cidade, experiência gastronômica que agradou as crianças. Nos deslocamos através de ônibus, barco e taxi.

Dear Adriana, Thank you very much for the chocolate tour you guided our group last Friday - we all enjoyed a lot! This tour is a perfect blend of sensory delight and historical exploration. The combination of tasting exquisite chocolates and discovering the rich history of Lausanne makes for an unforgettable experience. As a group, we were well received by the 3 highly reputable chocolatiers. They took their time explaining their history and specialities to us and even gave us some chocolate to take home. It was really a very SWEET experience, and I highly recommend for anyone who'd like to discover or re-discover Lausanne with some flavor. Have a great week, XinchiChocolate tour: a very sweet experience!

We had the pleasure of going on a tour with Adriana, and it was probably the most fantastic yet informative tour I have ever been on to date! Right from the start, her warm and welcoming demeanour made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. In addition, Adriana was incredibly knowledgeable, offering fascinating insights and stories about the area that really brought the history and culture to life. Her enthusiasm and passion made the entire tour both engaging and fun. Adriana also made sure to tailor the experience to the group’s interests, despite last minute changes and requests. She also answered questions (despite a slight language barrier) with a bright smile on her face - exhibiting her patience. Furthermore, she gave recommendations for things to do beyond the tour. Needless to say, everyone left feeling not only more informed but also with a deeper appreciation for the destination. Highly recommend Adriana to anyone looking for an enriching and enjoyable experience!Fantastic tour with Adriana

The tour of Geneva with Adriana was great. She arranged everything for us from sitting at the famous restaurant for fondue for lunch to making chocolate at a private chocolate store and visiting an old synagogue in Geneva. Her knowledge and personality was excellent and we all had a great time. We were a group of 22 people with nine kids, some adults and some senior citizens and Adriana managed to accommodate everyone. Highly recommended! BenGreat family tour in Geneva

Je vous remercie encore pour votre belle visite et pour toutes vos explications très enrichissantes, dommage que le temps n’était pas au rendez-vous… ☹ Nous en avons tous gardé un très bon souvenir ! 😊 Le lieu et la dégustation de vins étaient vraiment géniales ! tout le monde était ravi ! Les chocolats achetés sur place étaient succulents… Le restaurant était à couper le souffle dans le sens panorama que gustatif. Le retour à Paris a été difficile après avoir passé tous ces beaux et merveilleux moments… Un grand MERCI à vous et à votre collègue.Lavaux walking tour et dégustation de vin en Suisse

O que dizer sobre a Adriana e sobre a guia perfeita que ela é? Desde o nosso primeiro contato ela se mostrou totalmente acessível e empenhada em nos ajudar com a realização dos sonhos da nossa família que era conhecer a neve e o mercado de Natal! Assim que ela nos encontrou na estação de trem ela presenteou as nossas filhas com docinhos tradicionais da região dela, achei a atitude dela de uma gentileza tão grande, obrigada pelo carinho! Nosso tour começou em uma cidade linda chamada Montreux, fizemos o mercado de Natal e sim vale a muito a pena pois ele é maravilhoso e cheio de comidas maravilhosas, e o melhor de ter a Adriana por perto foi que ela nos apresentou os melhores lugares para comer, e após comer ela nos levou até a Roda Gigante aonde tivemos uma experiência maravilhosa e o melhor de tudo foi que ela fez vários vídeos e fotos nossas! Após a ida a Montreux partimos para Les Avants, conseguimos pegar um trem mais antigo que tinha uma arquitetura mais antiga e foi mágico estar lá dentro e ao mesmo tempo poder contemplar toda aquela paisagem branquinha coberta pela neve, e ao chegarmos lá ela fez os melhores registros da nossa viagem, o nosso contato com a neve, e que experiência maravilhosa, foi literalmente emocionante estar lá com a minha família podendo vivenciar tudo isso! Ela nos levou para comer o melhor fondue das nossas vidas, foi uma experiência incrível!!! Querida nós queremos agradecer muito a você por todo o amor e carinho que você dedicou comigo e com a nossa família, desde o início quando disse que nosso sonho era conhecer a neve, você foi e fez acontecer, posso te dizer que foi a experiência mais Fantástica que vivemos durante a nossa estadia na Suíça, não vejo a hora de poder voltar novamente para que você possa continuar me mostrando o quando o seu país é lindo!!! Você conquistou o coração de todos nós!!!! Fica aqui nosso muito obrigada Montreux Christmas market and panoramic train

Hi Adriana, Thank you today’s walking tour from Cathédrale de Lausanne to église Saint-François. The historical information you provided was very interesting. I really enjoyed the whole morning. I did re-visit the Cathédrale and climbed Tower steps for a birds eye view of Lausanne. The Bell chimed at 4pm just as a few of us visitors stood next to it! Kind Regards Denis Historic walking tour of Lausanne
