Hi there! Nice to meet you

Iuliia

I learned to read at the age of five and quickly fell in love with fairy tales.

For 11 years, I studied the cello at the same school Oistrakh graduated from in Ukraine.

My favorite subject in school was history, my true passion. I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist, but I graduated from the acting faculty and worked as an actress in the theater.

In 2008, I moved to Venice and gained experience in travel companies hosting tourists throughout Italy, France, and Switzerland. So, even before I moved to Lucerne, I knew Switzerland very well!

In 2015, I received my guide license in Venice.

In 2020, I moved to Switzerland, which is now my home. Here, I have my family and continue to work as a guide.

I promise not to overwhelm you with too many dates and names.

See you soon!

Julia

Luliia was fantastic! This tour was the highlight of our European tour this summer. Of all the places I have visited in the world, this was the most beautiful. My 10 year old son was mesmerized. Luliia was tye best tour guide we have had across multiple countries and continents. Highly recommend.A Must Do Tour

While we got to see Zürich, Iuliia did not take effort to get to know us or find out what we were interested in. It was impossible for us to get a word in between the non stop dates, names, and facts and felt like we were just being talked at. We need a vacation after the tour to relax! On the other hand, if you just want to know absolutely everything, every date, name, etc then Iuliia is your person. We chose Iuliia as her profile stated “I promise not to overwhelm you with too many dates and names” which is exactly what she did, so for that reason we would not recommend. Death by dates and names

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.Favorite tour stop with favorite guide

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. Luzern how you like it!
