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
