Incredible Experience and Value - A faultless tour with breathtaking views across two countries and multiple lakes, a highly engaging guide —Simone, tip him! — and clear organization to keep 50 travelers on track. I had trouble finding the coach because I hadn’t read my instructions email closely enough— the coach won’t say Viator but whatever tour operator is running it, so watch for that in the email you’ll receive. But they called me & directed me to the correct coach, and then I had a beautiful day.

The tour guides were... - The tour guides were fantastic (sorry forgot ghe lady's name & the guy helping her) & made the trip enjoyable. They ensured everyone's safety & that we were all accounted for. The only part that I felt rushed because one hour was just not enough time was in Lugano. We wanted to enjoy a meal in a different country but it ended up being rushed as there was just not enough time. We enjoyed the trip nevertheless.

I am glad we did the tour but the information given at times was hard to follow. - I signed up for an English speaking tour. There were other languages represented on our tour requiring our tour guide to speak three languages. She was difficult to follow at times and not all questions were answered in every language.

Kinda disappointed - Was a beautiful journey, however not very much information shared. Also thought it was English, but it was multiple languages. Not a lot of time in bellágio or in Switzerland. Most time was in como. Thought we would be taken around como, bellágio and Switzerland, and give history about each place and showed places however we mostly got taken to these towns, informed that their was places to go check out but no real direction on how to get to them. Hour and half in como, hour in bellágio and hour in Switzerland. The description of the tour said there was two places in Switzerland that we were going but we only went to one.

Only a transportation day trip. - Despite the terrible foggy weather, the experience wasn’t great. This was only a transportation day trip. They just take us from one place to another with no touring of the different cities. They basically drop people off on arrival at each destination and give you free time to explore by yourselves. The boat trip was the worst, this is a public transportation boat. It means you’re going to stay almost two hours waiting on the boat while it goes from one station to the other, only to go from Lake Como to Lugano. The two guides we had were nice and friendly but they only looked after logistics and gave instructions for meeting points. Would not recommend this experience If you want to get proper guiding services.

Well-bet on any other luck! - Promise more than it lasts - at least this time of year! Almost no guided tour of the cities -as it says - except in Como where it was a little walk. In the other cities we got some quick info - and then "free time" so you had to walk around yourself. The cathedral in Como was not open !- opened about 1½ hours after our stop there - many disappointed! The time in Lugano was only 50 minutes - and then it was not tourist season - so we could have done without that stop.
