Luis was very knowledgable and a great guide! I strongly recommend him. The boat trip wasn't anything too special though. We would have rather just spent another hour with Luis.

Unfortunately,, this should be promoted as private tour ! Nobody was with me and the tour guide. Way way pricey. You pay 188 $ for 1:20 minutes!!! We met at the station he took me to the bridge the lion walked through the old town left me by the Christmas market to go back to take the boat 50 minutes in lake Lucerne. I have to be honest luis the guide was nice and knowledgeable but you need to consider the price people that’s theft

This was the best walking tour we did during our time in Switzerland. Laszlo was an incredible guide — he was super knowledgeable and personable. We only had one day in Lucerne, so this tour was the perfect overview of the city and helped us identify what we wanted to do with the rest of our day.

Misleading trip. Title said boat ride and walking tour. However when we got there we found it was only a walking tour. We missed the small print. Felt very misled.

The time and sequencing of our walk, boat ride was changed the morning of the event. Communications were good, but it was difficult for us to change and so we missed the boat and had to catch it later. The walk was very interesting. Enjoyed seeing the old town of Lucerne. Our guide was very informative and answered all of our questions. I think they may not have been feeling well that day and so they were a real trooper just pushing through.
