A nice stroll through Luzern - We had a nice walk with our guide, Luis, who was very well versed in the history of the city, along with where the best restaurants were. We can’t wait to visit again and compare the chocolates of Luzern to Geneva.

Great tour - Isabella was knowledgeable, friendly and happy to answer anything we asked. The tour was 2 hours and ran the whole time. We didn’t do the optional chocolate part but wished we did. I will say this is not for anyone who can’t go up and down stairs and hills.

Luzern in between past & present - It's so worth it! The tour took place as i was the only customer (low season end of November). So it turned into an exclusive tour of lovely Luzern! We started von Torbogen Luzern then taken our way down onto the Reuss. Numerous details, historical, scientifical & cultural facts (all spiced up with old photographs) to the pathway covered: the churched, the Wooden Bridge with it's significance and troubled history. We continued our walk through the city with a lot of infos on local restaurants & places of interest, shopping. We landen on panorama points on the defence wall and explore it in promising weather of sun and coming snow. Enriched by stories of medieval history & behaviour and listening to the breath of the dragon whispers coming from Pilatus . It was an exciting journey, brilliantly guided tour into past, present, culture & civilisation of Luzern. I would recommend to my best friend. It made my visit here very special.

Low down of Lucerne - The tour started 30 minutes late. We did appreciate the fact that we were contacted! They stated that our guide would have a black jacket and a blue back-pack! Lol. Many people match that criteria! It would have helped, it they said a light blue back pack! We feel the tour guides of viator should have a flag to identify the tour. This would help immensely! Anyway, Isabella was great! She was easy to understand, and she accomplished our expectations! Thanks Isabella

NOT for solo travelers. - Isabella was a fine tour guide to see the city on foot including even the city walls. Only issue I have is that the tour was 2 hours late as I, a solo traveler, had to be grouped with next tour (of only two people mind you) with only a 20 minutes notice…as such, would *highly* not recommend to any single travelers looking for a tour of the city as you will be at the mercy of the guide company on when they will honor your purchase.
