We went on a hike throughout the surrounding mountains of Zermatt today. Our guide, Pete, was one of the most attentive and knowledgeable guides we have ever had lead a tour. From local fauna to the different geological features on the trail, Pete took care of all our questions. We can’t recommend him enough.
Perfect day in Lugano!

Patricia, our guide, provided a very nice walking tour of Lugano...then enjoyed a boat ride on and around a good portion of the lake before ending up at the Grotto for the Risotto making and lunch. We had an awesome time there...food and wine were terrific. Our guide even escorted us from the boat at the end to the Funicular for going up to the top of San Salvatore mountain for views around the entire lake and area. Great day overall!

Rene Welti is a wealth of knowledge. What a fabulous, well organized trip. Loved traveling by boat and rail. Had a great dinner with a gorgeous view of the lake. Stayed in lovely hotels, wonderful food. I'd definitely do this again.
