James was a phenomenal tour guide. He made our last day in Switzerland special and we would take 1a million more tours with him if possible.

James was a great guide, he provided a lot of information about the city and gave insights into Swiss attitudes as well. He does not guide often, so we were luck to get him

My son and I had just a few hours in Bern so planned a 2 hour tour with a local. We learned a lot and efficiently saw the highlights. It was really educational. We enjoyed very much
