The Lake Geneva area is about spectacular views, history, nature, wine and lots more! Allow me to share with you my passion about this gorgeous region, where I have been living for the past 20 years!
We loved our tour with Luliia. She is very informative, kind and funny. We enjoyed our time with her very much!

Favorite tour stop with favorite guide
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.

A wealth of knowledge!
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.

Luzern how you like it!
We contacted Lullia early on and told her the kind of tour we wanted. A mix of history, where to go, mountain hiking, lake cruise, etc. She got back with us quickly and proposed some activities, we responded with what sounded good and left it up to her to organize. We started early in the day so we could fit everything in. When we finally met she was very relaxed but diligent on how we went thru the day. She recommended places to visit mixed in with in depth history about how Luzern came to be and evolved. We had a relaxing hike on top of Rigi, ate lunch on top at a mountain cheese maker, wandered around mountain paths, cruised the lake, strolled thru the city. Never rushed but very pleasent. It was a long day but exactly what we wanted. Probably the best guide we have used in all of Europe.
