Mary our guide is very good and provided an excellent service. Best wishes for her
Carlos was a great tour guide and made the whole day fun and easy for me and my husband. He was friendly helpful and knew so much about Lucerne and Mt. Titlis. He explained everything clearly and gave us plenty of time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. The views were amazing and Carlos made the experience even better with his positive attitude and local knowledge. We really appreciated how organized everything was from start to finish. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Switzerland and we would definitely recommend this tour with Carlos to other couples and travelers.
We had a great day with Mary and Paola. They took great care of is especially since my friend was carrying an injury. They were super patient and really concerned. My friend and I had a wonderful time... memories for a lifetime!
Our trip was just 'WOW'!Must do for anyone visiting Swiss , and when you have a tour guide by your side like one whom we had - Leighton. He was ensuring we get the best experience throughout. Explained every detail with so much of clarity and detail , which made our trip more interesting. Leighton was very professional and friendly. Thank you Leighton, you are the BEST!
Our tour guide Rosa was exceptional. She guided us through the event without a hitch. She was extremely knowledgeable regarding Mt Titlis as well as everything Lucerne and other parts of Switzerland. Would highly recommend the small group tour.
We had a wonderful time with Leighton. He was a great guide and took extra time with us since my husband cannot walk for long distances. Took lots of beautiful photos and we can definitely say this was the high of our trip to Switzerland
What a great time we had on this tour with Jonas. He was so knowledgeable, informative and friendly! The weather was really sketchy to go on Mt. Titlis but he did not allow us to be disappointed. Lina from Tours of Switzerland coordinated all of our trips for the week we spent there and we h9ighly recommend her and the tour group!
This was our first time in Switzerland. We were only here for 6 night and as you can imagine, we wanted to fit as much as possible in. Originally, we had booked some tours through Viator (which I do not recommend as they up-charge close to 40% for their fees). Thankfully, we came across this company offering the same tours - and I am so glad we did! Not only was Tour’s of Switzerland an amazing company to work with (we did most of our correspondence with Lina) but the tours were flawless and our tour guide - Jonas - was second to none! He was beyond knowledgeable and also incredibly accommodating and managed to shift the tour if and when needed. Information, local places to eat, no waiting on lines, everything was taken care of from start to finish! We had such an amazing experience that we actually cancelled another Viator experience, found it through tours of Switzerland (with the help of Jonas and Lina) and booked it! I truly can’t begin to tell you just how amazing it all was - first class all the way and when I return, and I will be returning, we will ONLY be using Tours of Switzerland and Jonas! Thank you Tours of Switzerland and Jonas for an absolutely memorable experience!
If you need a guide in Switzerland there is ONLY one option, Jonas Schema! He is simply fantastic and creates a wonderful experience.
This tour was awesome because of my guide - JONAS. There is not as much to this tour as I had in my mind from reading the description. Be prepared - there is hiking. The top of Mt. Titlis is beautiful and quite a relief from the 90 degree weather in Lucerne in July. Walking across the suspended bridge and through the glacier were highlights and notably remarkable! The cheese tasting is not an organized tasting, per se. It consisted of Jonas bringing cheeses, bread and meat and sitting on a bench tasting the cheese. It was quite good but I did have in my mind we were going to a cheese factory where I would see how they make cheese - this was my fault. Again, Jonas made the trip. Easy to talk to, very knowledgeable and he knew exactly where he was going. Highly recommend any tour by Jonas!
