5.00We take lots of tour and one important thing is your guide and the drive and what I can tell you Monica jorba tour guide she was detailed gave us information when we were driving there and driving back which is wonderful and let me tell you she kept us very organized with a group this large she was very detailed and informative . She was also aware of a marathon and had the driver take a different route so we wouldn't be stuck in traffic for the last 20 yrs I have been on alot of tours I know she is the best tour guide I have ever had and elia the driver also did a good job getting us there safely. I will definitely book again when we return next year is there a way to request her as a guide? Thank you for the clean and comfortable transportation/bus

5.00Lars Faber was an excellent guide. He was friendly and shared a lot of interesting information about Lucerne and the train and the surrounding area. He kept everyone moving along at a both comfortable and efficient pace. Rheinhold was a fantastic driver and we felt very safe in his charter. The views and all these modes of transport were so special—gondola, train, boat. Highly recommend!!
