The Rhine falls was very...

The Rhine falls was very nice, but make sure you take the add on boat trip to the edge of the falls. The whole experience was a smaller version of Niagara Falls and the maid of the mist. The highlight of this tour is the trip the the village of Stein am Rhine. This was excellent and special credit needs to be given to our guide, Anita, who explained everything very clearly and thoroughly.

This tour was amazing! It gave us plenty of time to see and do what we wanted, the rides were comfortable, and Yolanda provided exceptional service. She was always intermingling with the crowd to make sure we were informed and even gave us extra information about a toboggan ride we wanted to do. Very friendly and helpful.

Jungfraujoch Top of Europe Day Trip from Lucerne

Rosie_O, Sep 2026

Great Experience with the best guide EVER ...

It was amazing. Switzerland countryside, from all angles, looks like a postcard, and this tour is no different - plus ending up at the top of the Jungfraujoch is hard to beat. There are different modes of transport and each and every one of them is exciting, due to where it takes you or what the ride is. The tour was expertly organised and led. We had Kid as our guide and he was the most unique and most professional guide I have ever encountered. It is only due to Kid that we will leave Switzerland with this wonderful memory. The tour seems expensive but considered the various modes of transports and where it actually leads, it is worth every penny. Kid is extraordinary. He knows every bend of the track and the best photo opportunities, and is not shy in directing your shot. He is most caring, always looking out for all tour paricipants and especially for potential "weak links" of his entrusted "flock". I travelled with my brother and we both agree - we loved this tour, no doubt, especially because Kid was guiding us.

Mt Pilatus and Lucerne Day Trip from Zurich With Lake Cruise

James_P, Sep 2026

One Day Mountian and Lake Experience

Well run tour. 2 hours free time on your own in Lucerne and two hours on your own at the top of Mt. Pilatus. Basic guidance provided on sights to see in Lucerne but you may want to do a little research ahead to optimize your time. We had a gloriously clear day and views from Mt. Pilatus were spectacular. Cable car ride up and cog train ride down were fun. Lake ferry ride back to Lucerne was pleasant and relaxing with snacks and beverages available for purchase.

This was a fantastic experience from start to finish! The tour was extremely well organised, with all connections running smoothly and on time. Our guide, David, was friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, enjoyable, and stress-free experience to the top of Euroupe. It was definitely worth it! Thank you David!

Mount Titlis Half-Day Trip from Lucerne

Jeff_U, Sep 2026

Great Experience

Well worth the extra cost, but don't expect the tour guide to add much. Meeting point was confusing as it was across the street in the bus parking lot and not at the Google map location. Make sure you check ahead of time the weather and that all the activities are open the day you are going before you book. Best to pay last minute and cancel if you need to.

St Moritz & Swiss Alps Day Trip with Bernina Red Train from Milan

weininglin, Sep 2026

Best Tour

This is the best tour I have ever had. The scenery is just breathtaking. The Red Train Bernina Express is just fantastic. The experience of seeing your own train winding through valleys is just amazing. Our guide Salvadore is very knowledgeable and organized. We learned a lot from him during this tour. The coach driver, Giuseppe, was masterful on the winding roads. We recommend to everyone.

Dalia_U, Aug 2026

Recommend!

Our trip started in Lauterbrunnen, and it was so beautiful we walked around and passed shops, we went into some chocolate shops and it was amazing! Afterwards we headed to Mt.Titlis where we enjoyed the gondolas, the ice flyer thankfully it was clear sunny skies! And the cliff walk! It was all so surreal, seeing the mountains from way up there! The guide was super informative and I loved the fun facts he gave too! Just be prepared to wait a long line for the rotating air lift coming and going!

Swiss Chocolate Walking Tour of Zurich

Debra_A, Jul 2026

A taste of chocolate culture

Julianna was an excellent guide. She set a reasonable pace and chose well for the selection of samples. She provided interesting and pertinent historical comments about the chocolate industry, the city and the region. She was also most helpful with local recommendations. We enjoyed the tour and recommend it.

Lake Lucerne Panoramic Sightseeing Cruise

Linda_W, Sep 2025

Beautiful views!

We enjoyed the 1 hour cruise of Lake Lucern. We sat outside in the front of the boat and had plenty of room to take pics and see all the incredible views. I wish I would have gotten the headset so I knew more about the what I was seeing, but that was on me. I suggest if you take the tour you get the headset. It was easy to purchase tickets, board the boat and depart the boat. I would definitely recommend the cruise.
