“We had a fabulous time with our guide, Luis! We were the only people to sign up for the chocolate-making/factory portion of the tour and I would say that was one of my favorite parts! We had so much fun learning about chocolate and chatting with Luis along the way. He taught us so much about chocolate, Swiss history, and Swiss culture along the way. And he of course continued to do so throughout the walking portion of our tour as well! We were worried with the rain happening intermittently throughout the day that it would detract from the experience, but Luis did a great job guiding us through the…”

Review of Lucerne’s private walking tour with Chapel Bridge, old town sights, Lake Lucerne, and traditional alpine cheese tasting.
“The tour guide Dave was amazing and his local knowledge exceptional…a really gentleman. The only problem is it was supposed to be a behind the scene cheese tasting tour as well as a tour of Lucerne. When we got to the cheese shop, the owner said he didn’t do the tour anymore. So I bought 2 slices of cheese and that was it!!!” No big deal, but when I called for a partial refund, never got an answer. Very disappointing. The town tour itself was well done.”
Walk Lucerne’s old town, visit two traditional wine cellars, and taste seven Lake Lucerne wines with Swiss cheese and charcuterie.
“Luis is an excellent tour guide! He has such passion for Lucerne. We loved his stories of the history and way of life here. The wine and charcuterie at the end were divine. A Must for all travelers to Lucerne! ❤️”

Explore Lucerne’s Chapel Bridge and Lion Monument, then taste six Eichhof beers with a local English-speaking guide.
“Our guide, Dave provided an excellent overview of Lucerne. Very knowledgeable with history of the city. The beer tasting was fun. A local shop provided a beer flight tailored to each of our group.”
Taste Lucerne chocolate, explore its old town with a local guide, and cruise Lake Lucerne on a four-hour small-group tour.
“What a fun experience! Making chocolate, learning about the process, getting one on one tour of the town and tickets for the boat which was amazing views. Highly recommend!”
Explore Lucerne’s old town, Chapel Bridge, Lion Monument, Lake Lucerne, and artisanal Läderach chocolate with a private guide.
“Our guide Dave was amazing. He has an extremely rich knowledge of the city and regions history. It wasn’t a day of just show and tell but an engaging conversation about Lucerne, its history and its people. If you’re interested in the ancient history of Europe, Dave is your guide. We could have talked for hours longer. Fascinating man. Thanks Dave!”
