This was a fabulous tour to do, as Timon lives in Lucerne and has for his life experienced the walkways, churches, and short cuts through to the best squares, best patisseries, chocolate shops, cheese shops and the top of Lucerne for a gorgeous view. He is very knowledgeable about the history and patient with questions. Plenty of time for photos and quiet time in the churches. Well prepared and gave us umbrellas and me his rain jacket when it poured down! Lots of places to see that are not well known. This is a good hike, lots of steps but one sure sees a lot in those 3 hours.

This was such an amazing experience, and a tour that I would highly recommend to anyone going to Lucerne. Timon is a fantastic guide, who is not just interested in the history of his home town, but also in sharing his incredible wealth of knowledge with others. I was traveling for several weeks with two family members, and we booked a countless number of tours. This was by far our favorite. I can't recommend Timon enough :)
