5.00We spent all day long nearly more than 12 hours discovering with our guide Gina the beauty of Swiss Alps, small villages and Luzern. We received not only very professional service and stories about the region but sincere care, game with snow, tons of laughter, fantastic pictures. It was real adventure and great time. I am looking forward to the next tour with Gina!
The best guide I ever had!

5.00Gene was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. Views from the train were stunning. Trip was very smooth. My wife is prone to motion sickness and was fine. We had a wonderful lunch in St Moritz. Got to wandering around the city for a bit before getting back on the train for the trip back.

5.00The once in a lifetime tour was amazing to go on the train through the Swiss Alps and see the amazing sights was amazing. Leighton our tour guide did an amazing job in not only showing us the sights but also he told us the history of Switzerland and we learned so much more than we thought from him. He answered our questions excellently and had information for every question. He took pictures of us through out the tour and shared them with us in the end. Amazing tour and amazing tour guide.
