A brilliant well thought out day. We did so much in one day. Melinda was so knowledgable and flexed the day around what we wanted and where we wanted to spend more time.
We had amazing time and saw so much in one day. Melinda our tour guide was excellent and made the day perfect, was flexible around what we wanted to do and was really knowledgable about the area. What made our private tour so personal is that we were able to shift the timings to suit us. Melinda went above and beyond what we expected and she made our day truly memorable.
We wanted to have a relaxing tour of spots along the lake Geneva and nicholas customised the tour perfectly to suite our needs. He is extremely supportive. Had a grand time with him
My partner and I had the pleasure of spending more than 8 hours with Nicholas on a private tour of the Swiss Riviera, traveling the entire perimeter of Lake Geneva, with stops in Montreux, Lausanne, Geneva, Mont-Pelerin, Vevey, and even the charming French village of Yvoire. What a memorable day! Nicholas is charming, extremely knowledgeable, and very accommodating to your specific interests (and he is an excellent driver with a spotless vehicle). We wish we could have spent our entire vacation in Switzerland with him because he made our visit so relaxing, enjoyable and fun. We hope to tour with him again in the very near future.
Nicholas, my Tour Guide was hugely personable and knowledgeable; made my experience a lasting memory and would recommend his services to anyone considering any similar tours.
Nice relaxing trip around Lake Geneva. Nicholas was good to talk to. Very thoughtful and accomodating. He also took us to an ofbeat quote place next to lake.
Wow.. Nicholas was fantastic. Very knowledgeable made sure to provide the extras for our comfort. Highly recommend.
Nicholas was extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to accommodate our interests. I would recommend him to anybody as a tour guide in Switzerland. Thumbs up! 👍
He was very informative, knowledgable. He was very professional and passionate about guiding the trip. This trip was above and beyond what we expected. Nicholas is the best, our family really enjoyed the trip. Highly recommend him!
My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our Swiss Riviera tour with Nicholas. He picked us up in the morning from our hotel in Evian Les Bains and we embarked on what became an almost 9-hour tour completely around the perimeter of Lake Geneva and its picturesque and significant sights (we had originally booked a 6-hour tour but extended it because we were having such a great time). Nicholas is highly intelligent, thoughtful, and articulate. He went above and beyond in accommodating our mobility and energy issues. His knowledge of the Swiss Riviera area is top-notch. Most importantly, he was incredibly flexible with the itinerary and really listened to what our sightseeing interests were. At the end of the day, we parted ways wishing we had another day on our trip to tour with him. He is a true gentleman and an excellent tour guide (as well as a very safe driver). Highly recommended!
