We definitely recommend this full day tour!
We really enjoyed the trip with Giorgio. It was great that he spoke our language, making communication much easier. He gave us plenty of time at the Verzasca River to swim and explore the area. We stopped at key landmarks, and he shared a lot of interesting information with us
A few days before the tour, we ran into an issue and asked to change the date; Giorgio was very accommodating and helped us cancel and rebook the tour online. We definitely recommend this full day tour!

we spoke with the company...
we spoke with the company to change dates 1 month in advance. reminded them we would show up next day, they said never received any changes, and no refund.
Operator response
It is all fake! wake up! here there is nothing to speak, here is not the psychologist! do you want to do any change to your booking? please you modify it online, within 24 hours before the tour starts, no talking just do it and you will be refunded with no any issues, this is the policy. Our company has the calendar fully booked, and nobody available to loose time talking to you. We are in 2026, remind this, everything works by computer. Don't write stupid and fake things: our company wrote you a message, right the day before this tour, to confirm it, saying that a guide would have picked you up at your hotel in Switzerland, and you replied that is would have been okay. The guide was sent from Milan to Switzerland especially for this tour and the day of the tour you wrote us that you were not in Switzerland but in Milan, Italy. Of course there isn't any refund for you! no any refund for customers who use to joke with people who are here working for them.

Clean and beautiful
We were very surprised and very impressed by Ascona. The boat tour was very nice. Everything was very clean and well-maintained. We were very satisfied with the services of ISS facility service.

Verzasca valley
This tour was 7-8 hours of exploration of the mountains north of Lugano. We stopped at tiny villages, water falls, river, and lakes. It was beautiful to explore the pre alps with a guide that seemed to know everyone along the way.

Breathtaking day in Switzerland
The Valle Verzasca with its clear river and impressive waterfall is simply fantastic! The private tour in Ascona was particularly beautiful – very informative and personal. An unforgettable excursion!

Humorous and engaging experience
Giorgio was a wonderfully humorous and knowledgeable host. He treated us like old friends he was sharing the countryside with. He happily shared the historical and socio-political contexts of this region. He even purchased a local wine for us! I’d happily recommend him to anyone and am sad that we can’t go on more of his offered tours!
