We booked a two hour tour last minute and it was great to have a guide show us the main attractions around Geneva. Bruno was very friendly and very knowledgeable. It was a very relaxing time.

Pricey but worth it

Pavel_K, Jan 2026

Having a non-professional tour guide, we expected something less informative and a bit different "direction", but were pleasantly surprised by our tour guide. She was very nice, quite knowledgeable, no rush, we took our time and got a good tour of the city. Do recommend.

Enjoyable and informative...

We booked very last minute and just needed an overview of the city. Herti was on time, friendly, informative. Perfect!

Wonderful guide, knowledgeable, kind, energetic, professional, flexible.

It’s difficult to find the tourist office on the 1st floor of the train Station. The map look no I tried put me on the street, so specifics would help. Herti was a WONDERFUL guide, full of information about history and local customs, culture, etc. We enjoyed tte tour very much!!
