Amazing Anniversary Day

5.00Many thanks to Chris for making our anniversary a lifetime memory! While Mother Nature was having a gloomy day with low clouds, Chris ensured we had the best possible and personal experience you just cannot get with a tour group, or you would simply pass by hidden gems without the experience of a local as your guide. Chris, thanks for an amazing day! We look forward to our next visit to Switzerland and tour with you!
Trip of a lifetime!

5.00After spending two days in Zurich we wanted to get out of the city and see the countryside. Tho I'm of Swiss descent and have been there many times we'd never been there to the Bernese Oberland. I found Chris via Viator and booked pretty last minute. He was super responsive and responded to my questions about booking almost immediately, even setting up a time for us to talk on WhatsApp. His goal was to create an amazing, memorable experience for us, which he did! It was like spending the day with a a super knowledgeable, local friend. Would definitely book with him again and highly recommend!
Highly recommended!

5.00It was a terrific tour, absolutely worth it. The locations were a great blend of both the typical great locations, as well as many lesser known, but equally spectacular locations. Chris is a fantastic guide. He is entertaining, interesting, very flexible (he asked if there were specific places that we heard about that we want to go to) and had a great sense for when to chat vs. have quiet time for us to take in the scenary. It was also nice that he seemed to know all the locals so he was always greeting or being greeted by others. Highly recommended!
Amazing time; great views

Like spending time with a friend who is eager to share the wonders of where they live!

5.00My partner and I enjoyed a marvelous day with Chris earlier this month. He spoke with us in advance to gauge our interests, then continued to adapt the tour to our interests and needs as he got to know us better that day. His vehicle is nice and comfortable, and he is an excellent driver, allowing us to just sit back, relax, and enjoy. We were able to see and do things we wouldn't have on our own, and he gave us suggestions and confidence to use the Swiss rail system to see additional places on our own. Touring with Chris is like spending time with a new friend who is eager to share the best of where they live with you. He took lots of photos of us, providing us wonderful visual memories of our day. His sense of humor and excellent service make you want to come back for more!
