We had a one on one tour experience! Very knowledgeable tour guide who had a passion for the history in Lucerne. Making our own chocolate bar was a unique experience! The boat ride is audio guided and you can go any time that fits your schedule that day. Cost is high.

This place looks like it came out of a Disney movie. Besides it’s beauty, it has a lot of history to discover. Nice app, we will use it for other cities. Kids approved!

Very fun and practical. We are used to taking several guided tours in Europe and we are a little tired of the same format. This app is simple, fun and available at any time!

Had a blast walking around, getting to know the city, its history, and simple curiosities. No time pressure, so we could stop here and there to check a store or get a beer. It's definitely the best way to know the city: it's entertaining and at our own pace. Recommend it.

Learning about the city was so much fun! The puzzles were also difficult enough to keep us engaged. A great way to (re)discover Lucerne for tourists and why not for locals.
